Piperno Restaurant - Timeless Roman Dining with Authentic Flavors in Rome

Fabulous established restaurant serving simple dishes beautifully. I first came here 15 years ago and remember how delicious the food was and even today, when so much time has gone by, it’s just as good as it was. Impeccable service and fabulous house wine.

Very much stuck in time. Not touristy at all. The team was a mixed bag. Some with a very strong chip on their shoulders, and others very warm. The lady who came across as the owner was very gracious and helpful. It is a place one must go when you have a lot of time. Being very Italian the entire process moves ever so slowly. You are meant to have a leisurely time. No need to hurry. The food is good but not superlative. The atmosphere when sitting outside on a summer day is very nice.

Everything about our experience at Piperno was perfect. We sat outside in the courtyard and the atmosphere was wonderful. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. We were there for a special occasion and the hosts made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and we were well looked after until the moment we left several hours later! When we return to Rome, we will be back. Thank you!

A rare gem and a true 10/10. We visited during a busy sunny lunch but chose to sit inside because the interiors are nothing short of cinematic. Everything is authentic and original which results in a time-travelling experience un-like many restaurants in the world. Because everyone else was outside there was nothing to indicate the modern resulting in the true fantasy of 1950s glamorous Rome. Please never change the interiors or add ugly modern features- it’s perfect just how it is the owner was friendly and cool and all the waiters look sharp, elegant and professional in their white tuxedos and bow ties. My wine was one of the nicest I’ve had in years. Starter was tasty and unique and served on great plates. I’d love to see a few more vegetarian/ vegan options, fresh Italian salads or vegetable pasta sauces, otherwise I cannot fault this restaurant. Thank you!

Great spot just far enough off the beaten path that it isn’t packed. Great for the summer as the entire outside eating area is in the shade. The food is great and fairly priced. Can’t go wrong here. Great desserts as well.

Me and my friend both came to Rome’s perfectly blends historic charm with refined Jewish cuisine. We ordered 5 dishes and Each dish celebrates tradition—especially the artichokes. Impeccable service and a superb wine list make every visit memorable. An essential Roman culinary experience. I am sharing some of my photos here with great recommendations for people who love a cozy, friendly and a family environment to have their meal… Believe me you will never regret your choice …

I really liked how the pasta was served — neat, simple, and elegant. The taste was great too: creamy sauce, just the right amount of cheese, everything perfectly balanced. I also tried counting the calories using the service shown in the attached photo. I was pleasantly surprised — it’s fast and accurate. I’d recommend it to anyone who’s keeping an eye on their nutrition. It’s convenient and really helps to stay aware of what you eat.
