Details

Il Buco dal 1901 offers a distinctive Roman dining experience, steeped in history since its establishment in 1901 by the Frescobaldi marquises, who aimed to bring the beloved flavours of Tuscany to Rome. This century-old establishment exudes an authentic and convivial atmosphere, characterised by its rustic decor, wooden accents, warm lighting, and inviting aromas from the kitchen, reminiscent of a traditional osteria. Tucked away on a quiet street near iconic landmarks like Piazza Venezia and the Trevi Fountain, it provides a tranquil and intimate setting for guests.

The restaurant primarily serves a style of Tuscan cuisine, alongside other Italian dishes, with a focus on seasonal ingredients that frequently refresh the menu. Diners can explore a rich and varied wine cellar, predominantly featuring excellent Tuscan selections but also offering fine wines from across Italy. Notable choices include traditional pasta dishes like Carbonara, the flavourful Pappardelle Funghi e Tartufo, and comforting Gnocchi Sorrentina, while main courses range from tender Blackened Salmon to the decadent Pollo Florentina. Attentive staff further enhance the dining experience, ensuring good quality and accommodating dietary requirements, such as gluten intolerance.

This charming Roman restaurant is ideal for those seeking genuine Italian dishes within a welcoming and historical setting. It serves well for a range of occasions, from a relaxed lunch to a romantic dinner or an enjoyable evening with friends. Given its quiet and intimate ambiance, it is also suitable for solo diners and special celebrations, allowing guests to linger over their meal in true Italian fashion.

Worthwhile to stop by and enjoy the local cafeteria atmosphere. Surprised by the price (positive way) considering the quality and quantities of food and service. I'll come back again for sure.

We had a cappucino and a pistaccino, and a vegetarian omelette plus a Caesar salad. It was perfect!

A pleasant surprise, and thankfully open at an earlier dinner hour. We tried 3 places that Google said were open only to find they weren't. This place did not disappoint!

All the dishes we tried were very delicious with fresh ingredients, however we waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive which was a bit too long.
