Giggetto al Portico d’Ottavia

In the heart of the Jewish Ghetto of Rome, just steps from the Portico d'Ottavia, the imposing and perfectly preserved pre-Christian monument, Giggetto al Portico d'Ottavia has been a landmark of Roman and Jewish cuisine for decades, since 1923. The trattoria has managed to win over generations of Romans and foreign visitors, keeping intact that genuine and authentic spirit that belonged to the great restaurateurs of Rome's past. Today the third generation of the family, with Claudio and Marco Ceccarelli at the helm, continues to bring the dishes of Roman tradition to the table with the same passion as always. Among the specialties that have made the restaurant famous are the fiori di zucca ripieni, the filetti di baccalà, the spaghetti alla carbonara, the bucatini all'amatriciana and the gnocchi alla romana, together with classics such as trippa and coda alla vaccinara. But Giggetto's true signature dish remains its carciofo alla giudia, succulent and crispy, a symbolic dish of Judeo-Roman cuisine. A historic address in the center of Rome, ideal for those seeking an authentic experience of Roman flavors in a setting rich in history.
