At 10Best, we're always on the lookout for Rome's best restaurants, and while we appreciate places that have a broad culinary range, we can't help but adore restaurants that specialize in a given cuisine. When we're in the mood for Roman food in Rome, we head to Al 34 - a reader favorite - or we count on Da Gino's solid track record and consistently great dishes. You'll find these places - and any of the restaurants on our list - to be fantastic options for Roman cuisine, and if you're looking to concentrate your efforts, start with the vibrant Airport - Fco area.

    Local Expert Tip: "Make sure to reserve, otherwise you will wait who knows how long. Dining outside lends a totally different experience than inside. Therefore, request a table outside."
