In Rome for another three days and need some dinner/night cap recommendations. We’ve been eating drinking in Pantheon square area but am well aware of hour touristy it is. Thanks in advance!

Yes, it’s touristy near the Pantheon, but the restaurant Armando al Pantheon is good and serves classic food. LINK

If you’re sick of Italian food, there’s a pretty good sushi place just off of Piazza Navona, a few blocks from Pantheon, called Tora. It has a bunch of non sushi on the menu as well.

And in the completely non traditional for Rome, there’s a microscopic Indian place run by Shue, who serves vegetarian food and fresh juices not too far away. Pakoras, samosas, a dish of the day w rice.... called Vega Food, run by Shue and his wife. He used to be a waiter at the Indian cultural center in the Ghetto neighborhood, and now he has his own place. Sometimes you need a juice and vegetarian food palate detox after days of cured meats, cheeses, and wines. Vega Food doesn’t have a website, but if you google it, you’ll see plenty of pics and reviews.

Central Rome is very compact, don’t be afraid to walk to another area to find what you want.

Also, take a short stroll over to where via Arenula meets Via Florida, by the Largo Argentina archaeology site/cat sanctuary, Pizzeria Via Florida has pizza al taglio (by the slice) with interesting toppings. Here’s a trip advisor link with a bunch of pics of the food: LINK

That spot you mentioned is the spot where Julius Caesar was assassinated. We like a restaurant near there, just off Campo di Fiore, which is also built in the remnants of the old Teatro de Pompeo (Theatre of Pompey) which is where the Roman Senate was meeting when Caesar was stabbed by Brutus there. The restaurant is Hostaria Costanza. Very good food in historic surroundings..... For a nice casual meal we also like Enoteca Cul de Sac, a wine bar just off Piazza Navona.

If I was already in Rome I would ask some locals where they go eat, especially if you are tired of the touristy places.

No offense to the well travelled members of the TD travel board.
