Trattoria da Danilo
Just south of Termini train station and Piazza Vittorio, Trattoria da Danilo is easily overlooked as another typical Roman trattoria—and hence its charm. Rustic wooden furniture and framed photos of local celebs converge to reveal the real scene: The city’s best
cucina romana, with a menu of classics like carbonara,
cacio e pepe, gricia, trippa, abbacchio, and
bacala. Some seasonal surprises include a mind-blowing
carbonara estiva (summertime carbonara). Unpretentious and reliably delicious, Da Danilo is the Roman restaurant you’ve been waiting for.
