A warm atmosphere and a warm welcome await you at Al Pompiere, a restaurant in the Jewish Ghetto run by the Monteferri family since 1928.

Historic Restaurant in the Jewish Quarter
Located in the Jewish Quarter, this historic trattoria serves traditional Roman dishes. We enjoyed the fried artichokes and sweetbreads, fried vegetables, roast lamb and Roman-style saltimbocca.
Attentive, professional and quick service despite the large Sunday lunch crowd. Recommended.
