Lonely Planet review

A pig's whisker from the city's former slaughterhouse, Checchino is a Roman institution, one of the grander restaurants specialising in offal, from calf heads to pig trotters. Run by the fifth generation of the Mariani family, it has risen from humble roots to become one of the city's most vaunted eateries, attracting a well-to-do clientele of local regulars and curious foreigners.

For those who can't stomach the Roman soul food there's more standard seasonal fare and a comprehensive wine list.
