Vecchia Roma
At venerable Vecchia Roma (Old Rome), polite waiters wear white jackets, oil paintings adorn the dining rooms and candles light the outdoor terrace. The menu changes with the season, offering fabulous salads in summer, 101 things to do with polenta in winter and decent pastas and risottos year-round. Also worth a mention is the abundant antipasto selection of buffalo mozzarella, stuffed squid, prawns, fried bits and bobs and assorted vegetables.

Vineria Chianti
Many restaurants in the environs of the Trevi are to be avoided, but this pretty ivy-clad wine bar is an exception. Specialising in Tuscan dishes, it also serves imaginative salads (such as pine nuts, cinnamon, pear and blue cheese), pastas and meat dishes, and pizza in the evenings. It's a great place to eat in summer, when tables spill out onto the tiny piazza outside.
