Antica Pesa restaurant is one of the best in Rome frequented by a well-dressed, well-known clientele.
All Hollywood stars and top government officials have dined here, many of them inspired by Trastevere artists from mid-twentieth century, whose paintings and sculptures are on display.
Family-owned since 1922 in Rome’s Trastevere neighborhood, Antica Pesa has been a lifelong success and is still going strong. On the menu authentic Roman cuisine, a combination of traditional and innovative Italian under the direction of chef Simon Panella. The dishes change with the seasons, and on a daily basis, and include steamed shrimp with zucchini flowers, white truffle ravioli, thyme lamb bark, basil sorbet and caramelized apples.
