Spectacularly set at the back of the Palazzo delle Esposizioni, Antonello Colonna’s restaurant lounges dramatically under a dazzling all-glass roof. Cuisine is new Roman – innovative takes on traditional dishes, cooked with wit and flair. On sunny days, dine al fresco on the rooftop terrace. The all-you-can-eat weekday lunch buffet and weekend brunch are cheap but unremarkable.
