Taverna 51

About

Taverna 51 is a historic Roman trattoria in the heart of Trastevere, founded in 1951 and still run by a family with deep local roots. The restaurant offers authentic Roman cuisine made from fresh, seasonal ingredients, prepared entirely in‑house. Guests can enjoy classic starters like suppli (fried rice balls with cheese), a variety of antipasti, hearty pasta dishes such as the house‑made tonnarelli in carbonara or amatriciana, and a range of second‑course options from roasted chicken to veal and fish. Signature pizzas are baked in a traditional wood‑fired oven, and a wide selection of local wines and craft beers accompanies the menu. With an open‑to‑all‑day schedule from noon to midnight, Taverna 51 is an ideal spot for families, couples, and late‑night diners seeking a genuine Roman dining experience in the picturesque streets of Trastevere.
