Michelin tables in Rome
5 michelin tables in Rome, chosen and checked by the Atlas. The world's great dining rooms, from three-star palace restaurants in Paris and Mayfair to the counters of Tokyo and the kitchens of New York and São Paulo. Only Michelin-starred tables.
La Pergola
Heinz Beck's restaurant at the top of the Rome Cavalieri, with the whole city spread out below. Rome's only three-star table.
Enoteca La Torre
Domenico Stile's restaurant in the Art Nouveau Villa Laetitia on the Tiber.
Il Pagliaccio
A long-standing two-star restaurant on Via dei Banchi Vecchi, between Piazza Navona and the Tiber.
Acquolina
Daniele Lippi's seafood-led restaurant at The First Roma Arte hotel, near Piazza del Popolo.
Imàgo
Dinner on the sixth floor of the Hotel Hassler, at the top of the Spanish Steps, with a panoramic view over Rome's domes.
Good to know
Book early
Three-star tables often release reservations 30 to 90 days ahead and fill within hours. Set a reminder, or ask your hotel concierge.
Dress the room
Smart is the rule; a jacket is expected in most palace-hotel dining rooms, and some still require a tie.
Tell them in advance
Allergies, dislikes and celebrations are best mentioned when booking, not at the table.
Lunch is the secret
Many starred kitchens serve a shorter lunch menu at a fraction of the dinner price, with the same hands at the stove.
