Lonely Planet review for La Rosetta
Some say this is Rome’s best fish restaurant; others say it’s the best in Italy. Whichever it is, if you dislike fish, look elsewhere, because vegetarians and carnivores are not catered for. Chef Massimo Riccioli’s dishes are often startlingly simple – there’s nothing complex about spaghetti con calamaretti (pasta with baby squid) – but they’re prepared with genius. Outside you glimpse the Pantheon but it’s better inside amid yellow hues and white tablecloths. Bookings are essential, and it’s more affordable at lunch.
