The Roman trattoria as it should be — small, loud, seasonal. Rigatoni con la pajata when it's on. Always the artichokes.

First Impressions
The Roman trattoria as it should be — small, loud, seasonal. Rigatoni con la pajata when it's on. Always the artichokes.
Da Enzo al 29 is a tiny, beloved Trastevere trattoria that does the Roman classics with such consistency it has become a genuine destination — which means a queue, because it's small and doesn't take many reservations. It's worth it. The cooking is seasonal, the room is loud and warm, and the ingredients are taken seriously (much of it sourced with care). For the classic Roman trattoria experience, done right, this is a benchmark.
What We Loved
Roman offal classics for the adventurous — rigatoni con la pajata when it's available — and the carciofi alla romana (artichokes) are a must whenever they're in season. Finish with the tiramisù.
Small, loud, warm — the real Trastevere trattoria, with the queue to prove its reputation.
RIGATONI CON LA PAJATA · CARCIOFI ALLA ROMANA · TIRAMISÙ
