I am so hungry after watching Vice’s Rome episode of The Pizza Show.
I’m also seriously happy with the pizzerie that they chose to feature. The pizza they talk about and taste really is some of the best in Rome.
The locations profiled include:
- Antico Forno Roscioli
- Emma
- Sbanco (with Stefano Callegari, who is also the pizza brain behind my beloved Trapizzino and Tonda — which also has the cacio e pepe pizza)
- Pizzarium (best pizza by the slice in Rome)
- La Gatta Mangiona
- Giulietta
- and Pizzeria Da Remo – my local pizzeria in Testaccio, with a glimpse of their infamous attitude
I highly recommend watching the whole episode, but be prepared for serious cravings!
The last few times we were in Rome, we went back repeatedly to La Montecarlo on Vicolo Savelli. It was probably the best pizza I’ve ever had, but I was surprised to find that it’s never mentioned in ‘Best Pizza in Rome’ features! Will definitely try out some of the ones mentioned above – Emma looks great!
Hi Lauren! I recommend Montecarlo for eating near Piazza Navona. Very boisterous and traditional! Emma is a bit of a different vibe but a great option for pizza tonda in the center.
Yes, let’s just say that you wouldn’t be going for the service 😀
Sigh. I have to warn EVERYONE.
