IN THE HEART OF ROME
Puntarella is a restaurant that offers Contemporary Italian and Roman Cuisine.
Our dishes are prepared by choosing the quality of the products with great attention, using modern cooking techniques and are contaminated with ingredients and spices from all over the world.
The result is innovative and tasty dishes that maintain the Roots of Italian and Roman taste.
Being modern for us means working on tradition even if it’s more difficult and even if it means going against the trend.
Our Goal
Defend the Italian food and wine heritage which is under attack due to globalization and the standardization of food.
Italian food is expensive when the ingredients are quality and there are Italian Chefs in the kitchen.
If you are not interested in these differences, Puntarella is NOT the right restaurant for your needs.
If you want to eat fresh hand-rolled pasta, or bread and bread sticks prepared with the best wheat in Italy, you are welcome!
Our Mission
Dish after dish we want to bring Roman, Italian and foreign gourmets back to Trastevere.
Our beautiful neighborhood, famous all over the world, deserves quality cuisine and not just that offered by tourist menus.
“Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food” – Hippocrates
A unique location between the alleyways and the art of Trastevere
The Puntarella Restaurant is in Piazza del Drago, between Via della Lungaretta and Via di Monte Fiore, a few steps from the renowned Santa Maria in Trastevere.
We are in Rome’s most authentic district, one of the most sought-after by tourists but also thoroughly appreciated by those who have chosen to live here.
Characteristic squares, narrow, colourful alleyways, markets, small shops and craftsmen’s workshops – the neighbourhood is very lively, both during the day and in the evening, which is why we are always ready to welcome those who, between a walk and a cultural visit, decide to stop by for an enjoyable and delicious bite to eat.
Guests can choose to eat inside, in the main dining room, which has a capacity of 50 people, or in the exclusive tavern to enjoy a more private setting for business meetings or dinners with friends for up to 14 guests.
Or outside, on a splendid patio in the characteristic Trastevere square, which can be used both in summer and winter and can accommodate up to 40 people.
