Taverna Cestia
About
Taverna Cestia is a family‑owned Roman trattoria tucked beside the iconic Piramide Cestia in the historic center of Rome. Since 1967, it has served authentic Roman dishes—pasta, seafood, and traditional thin‑crust pizza—crafted from local ingredients and seasoned with a modern touch. The cozy interior and a charming alfresco terrace overlooking the stone pyramid create a relaxed atmosphere suitable for any occasion. The restaurant welcomes guests from midday to late evening, offering two separate service windows (12:30‑15:00 and 19:30‑23:00) to accommodate lunch crowds and night diners alike. Friendly staff cater to dietary preferences, including gluten‑free, vegan, and vegetarian options, and the venue accepts credit cards and offers free Wi‑Fi. Whether you’re a family looking for a casual dinner, a couple seeking a romantic evening, or a food enthusiast eager to taste genuine Roman cuisine, Taverna Cestia combines historic ambiance with high‑quality, accessible meals.
