About Ristorante Assuntina
Assuntina represents its lighter version, while keeping its philosophy intact: a cuisine that showcases the freshness and genuineness of fish without altering its natural flavor. The formula that decreed the success of the original Assunta Madre in Rome is faithfully respected here, starting with the daily arrivals of fish from Terracina, the basis of simple dishes designed to enhance the quality of the raw ingredients. The setting reflects this philosophy of authenticity: an essential yet welcoming design, enriched by exposed wooden beams and paintings depicting fishing scenes with nets, as well as portraits of Assuntina herself. It is no coincidence that the restaurant chose Testaccio as its location: a neighborhood proverbial for its osterie and fraschetterie, where the clientele has always been attentive and demanding when it comes to traditional flavors. The menu offers dishes with a decidedly Mediterranean character: pasta e fagioli con le cozze, vermicelli alle vongole veraci, tonnarelli ai totani, zuppa di frutti di mare, straccetti al tonno, and involtini di melanzane e gamberi. For those who love raw fish, there are options such as tartare di tonno and carpaccio misto. Not to be missed are also the dishes based on the catch of the day, ideal for letting yourself be guided by the seasonal availability of the fish market.
