Kosher Restaurants in Rome, Page 2
Rome is home to the oldest Jewish community in Europe and the richest kosher dining scene in Italy, almost all of it clustered in the historic Jewish Ghetto around Via del Portico d'Ottavia in the Sant'Angelo rione. Kosher supervision is centralised under the Rabbinato of the Jewish Community of Rome (Comunita Ebraica di Roma), whose kashrut office publishes the official list of certified restaurants, pizzerias, bakeries, pastry shops, gelaterie and butchers. The area is famous for Roman-Jewish (giudaico-romanesca) cooking, above all the deep-fried carciofi alla giudia.
The kosher scene is concentrated in the Jewish Ghetto along Via del Portico d'Ottavia and nearby Piazza Costaguti, Piazza Cenci and Via di Santa Maria del Pianto, a short walk from the Great Synagogue and the Museo Ebraico; additional certified spots (bakeries, gelaterie, caterers, butchers) are spread across Monteverde, Portuense/Marconi, Prati and the Nomentano/Bologna areas. Meat restaurants keep separate meat and dairy menus, and most kosher establishments close for Shabbat (Friday afternoon through Saturday night) and Jewish holidays, reopening Saturday evening after sundown. Must-try Roman-Jewish dishes include carciofi alla giudia (deep-fried artichokes), fried baccala, concia (marinated zucchini) and aliciotti con l'indivia.
