Crispi19 Restaurant, the timeless taste of authentic Rome

From raw seafood to homemade pasta, a journey through Italian flavours created by a historic Roman restaurant

Just a stone's throw from the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps, Crispi19 Restaurant is a true institution on the Roman gastronomic scene. Founded in 1873 as a modest fraschetta, today it represents a meeting point between Mediterranean tradition and Italian haute cuisine, where every dish tells a story of passion, elegance, and authenticity.

From the beating heart of 19th-century Rome to the contemporary capital, Crispi19 has traversed eras and fashions while remaining faithful to a single principle: culinary excellence. In 2008, thanks to the vision of its current owner and the talent of its chef, the restaurant embarked on a new life, transforming itself into an elite restaurant capable of combining the authentic taste of tradition with the creativity of modern cuisine.

Crispi19's culinary offerings take you on a journey through Mediterranean flavors, where the freshness of the catch of the day takes center stage. From freshly prepared raw seafood to more elaborate dishes, every course is crafted with meticulous attention to detail to highlight the quality of the ingredients. Alongside fish, there is a selection of fine meats, fresh homemade pasta, and options for those who prefer vegetarian or gluten-free dishes—an attention to detail that reflects the restaurant's inclusive and contemporary philosophy.

Entering Crispi19 means immersing yourself in an intimate, refined, and welcoming environment, ideal for a romantic dinner, a special evening, or an anniversary to remember. Every detail, from the décor to the mise en place, contributes to creating a complete sensory experience that goes beyond taste.

To complete the experience, there is an excellent wine cellar with around three hundred labels from all over the world. The sommelier is always on hand to recommend the right pairing between wine and dishes, transforming the tasting into an authentic wine journey. From the oldest and most prestigious bottles to the most contemporary discoveries, every choice is designed to enhance the character of the cuisine.
