Vin Allegro

For a neighborhood that is home to many a tourist restaurant, Vin Allegro is a refreshing little venue right in the heart of Trastevere. With both indoor and outdoor seating, the wine list here is packed full of regional Italian wines and the international variety as well. The menu is classic, enoteca style. That is, wholesome, not fancy and tasty comfort food. From taglieri (boards) of cheese and salumi to various brushcette topped with tomato or zucchini and prized cheeses, to hot dishes like vegetable bakes and tarts. Add to that some classic jazz and blues tracks coming through the sound system and friendly staff, and this could be one of Trastevere's best watering holes. BUS: 23, 75, 3. TRAM: 8
