PIZZERIA DA REMO€
PIZZERIA
( 06 574 62 70; Piazza Santa Maria Liberatrice 44; pizzas from €5.50; 7pm-1am Mon-Sat; Via Marmorata)
Pizzeria Da Remo is one of the city's most popular pizzerias, its spartan interior always
crowded with noisy diners. The pizzas are thin Roman classics with toppings loaded onto
the crisp, charred base. Place your order by ticking your choices on a sheet of paper
slapped down by an overstretched waiter. Expect to queue.

One of the few

sumptuous
tavola calda
(canteen-style buffet) offering an opulent choice of pizza, pasta,
soup, meat, vegetables and fried nibbles.
