Restaurant
La Pergola
Heinz Beck's rooftop restaurant at the Rome Cavalieri was the first in the city to earn three Michelin stars and remains its only three-star table.
On a quiet piazza near Via Giulia since 1938, Pierluigi is an elegant seafood restaurant with a large terrace and a cellar of over 1,500 labels.
Good to know
Pierluigi has been part of Roman social life since 1938, and its tables spill out across Piazza de' Ricci, a small square just off Via Giulia. Fish and seafood lead the menu, cooked with a blend of tradition and current ideas, alongside seasonal meat and vegetable dishes. The cellar holds more than 1,500 labels, and there is a cocktail bar for a drink before dinner.
It is a polished, lively place suited to a celebratory meal, especially outdoors on a warm evening. The restaurant opens every day for lunch and dinner. Reserve through the website and request a terrace table if the weather is good. Campo de' Fiori and Palazzo Farnese are both a few minutes' walk away.
