This place is located in Trastevere, perhaps the most food-focused district of Rome. There are many inexpensive restaurants here, but “La Scaletta” is especially popular. Most likely, visitors come back here again and again because the portions are quite large and the prices are very reasonable: pizza costs 4-8 euros, dessert 3-4 euros, spaghetti with beer about 10 euros, etc.
To avoid waiting in line, it is better to reserve a table at “La Scaletta” in advance. For those who have never been to this restaurant, it is worth mentioning that the menu has special offers for tourists. They are called the “Tourist Menu.” In addition, there is a budget-friendly option for a hearty lunch — the “Menu of the Day.”
We help plan a trip to Rome – Travel planner and guide for iPhone or Android – hundreds of attractions, ready-made walking routes, the ability to create your own routes, an offline map, and GPS. Everything you need for an interesting trip.
By the way, when ordering dishes, gauge your appetite, because the portions here really are large. Food lovers recommend the octopus salad, shrimp risotto, bruschetta, and traditional spaghetti carbonara. When choosing pizza, keep in mind that their “Bombetta” is very spicy.
The interior is quite pleasant; you can choose a table inside or sit on the open terrace. The only drawback is the rather narrow passages between the tables, and when the restaurant is crowded, it is almost impossible to squeeze through.
