✨

Reasons to go

The restaurant sits atop Palazzo Manfredi and holds a Michelin star under chef Giuseppe Di Iorio.

📖

Full description

Aroma occupies a rooftop position with a view straight onto the Colosseum that reviewers repeatedly describe as unmatched anywhere else in the city, making it a natural pick for a milestone dinner with a genuine wow factor. The cooking itself gets more uneven marks than the setting, with at least one couple noting the food didn't quite match the spectacular view despite the overall evening still being memorable.

At 4.1 from over 1,600 reviews, premium pricing, and among the highest aesthetic scores in this batch, it's best approached as a view-first fine-dining experience, book it for the Colosseum outlook and go in with tempered expectations for the food matching that scenery exactly.
