About

Meo Pinelli is a historic family‑run trattoria in the heart of Rome’s Cinecitta district, dating back to 1974. Boasting a timeless, warm ambience, it has become a favourite of celebrities, film crews, and locals alike. The menu spans every part of a traditional Roman experience – from hearty lunch sets (12:00‑14:30) to an elegant aperitivo (18:00‑21:30), and a savory dinner (20:00‑23:00) enriched with classic Roman and Italian specialties. After dinner guests can enjoy a post‑cena cocktail bar (22:00‑01:00), offering artisanal drinks for a relaxed encore. With its central location overlooking Cinecitta square, the restaurant provides a blend of culinary authenticity, convenient access to Rome’s film heritage, and a relaxed setting perfect for any occasion.
