Antico Traiano
About
Ristorante Antico Traiano invites guests to a taste of authentic Roman cuisine within the historic walls of a 1923 villa that once served Ostia’s first luxury café. Nestled on Via Lucio Coilio in Ostia Lido, the restaurant offers a charming blend of seaside ambiance and architectural heritage that transports diners back to a bygone era. The menu focuses on Mediterranean dishes with a notable emphasis on fresh seafood, made from locally caught fish and shellfish that showcase the Tyrrhenian Sea’s bounty. Traditional Roman favorites such as grilled sea bass and shrimp risotto coexist with inventive creations that honor local flavors while maintaining an approachable, family‑friendly flavor profile. With its 8 am‑12 pm service every day, Antico Traiano is the perfect spot for a leisurely lunch or a relaxed afternoon meal. Whether you’re savoring the sea view from the terrace, exploring the historic dining hall, or enjoying a casual bite in the outdoor garden, the restaurant’s warm, welcoming atmosphere makes it a must‑visit for travelers and locals alike.
