For a quick, unpretentious meal in Rome, the 12 Apostoli restaurant is worth a stop for good food, without the frippery of fancy service.
The restaurant is located on one of the long and narrow squares in Rome, just minutes away from the famous Piazza Venezia (where you can find plenty of places to eat as well).
It is situated in a historic building and is a large restaurant.
The menu is not particularly impressive at first, but the pasta is homemade, as are the desserts and while there’s nothing fancy, you’re guaranteed to get a good basic pasta dish where you know exactly what you’ve ordered.
Antipasti are available with salami, seafood and chicken salads, and mixed vegetable dishes with tomato and mozzarella.
The first courses are mostly pasta dishes with choices such as amatriciana spaghetti or cream and mushroom tortellini.
The portions certainly let you know you’re in Rome.
Second courses are available, but as you’re likely to be full already, we suggest skipping to the desserts with a classic crema catalana, for example.
The restaurant can be found at Piazza dei Santi Apostoli.
