If you're looking for quintessential European charm then you must try The Library. This little…read morerestaurant, tucked down an alley, is a wonderful respite from the sometimes jarring hustle and bustle of Rome. Admittedly, it was a few years ago that I dined here with my now husband on our first trip abroad together so I don't quite recall our full meal but I remember my first encounter with a real, authentic Caprese Salad with the best Italian olive oil and perfectly fresh mozzarella. I will also never forget the taste of the complimentary Cynar aperitif that was offered to us. It was a bizarre, bitter yet aromatic flavor that left me confused as to whether I wanted to spit it out or ask for more! :) Above all else, is the Library's ambiance. Dim lighting, centuries old brick walls, iron stair case and the wonderful, friendly staff and owner. I remember feeling a little worried that, as (young) Americans we wouldn't be well received in such a nice little restaurant but my worries soon melted and we were welcomed with open arms by our worldly waitress who happened to be British and just moved to Rome from the States.

On a trip to Italy 4 years ago, myself and Fiona celebrated our engagement with a dinner at this…read morerestaurant. We returned to Italy this year and were due to be in Roma on the same night, so booked a table. We were not disappointed, the service, food and wine were all excellent (again). This is a very small restaurant, not far from Piazza Navona. It is best to book a table. This is not a touristy type place, the menu is not very long and changes regularly. The owner is very friendly and explained all the dishes to us, and knew a good bit about the wine too. Recommended for a special occasion.

I really enjoyed my dining experience here. An adorable dining are and an extensive library, I…read morewish I had more time to stay! I had the tasting menu served on a Royal Indian Thali. Each course was better than the last. Classic Ayurveda philosophy of using all the flavors in each course. It was very filling, and too much for one person so I ended up taking some back to the hotel to enjoy later. There was only one waiter and the place was packed so it took a while for my food to come out. But he was very apologetic about the wait and I honestly didn't mind. In Ayurveda medicine it is best to eat slowly and enjoy each bite. I recommend this place if you're looking for more than just a quick bite, and enjoy the experience.

Vegan options galore (almost everything)! Interesting Indian food in the heart of Rome…read more Here's advice: Portions are HUUUUUGE. You might think the prices are expensive, but they aren't! One meal will serve two people... EASILY (and deliciously). You will over "Dosa" for sure! ;) The service is pretty slow, but the staff is super friendly. So just sit back, relax, and enjoy your food that comes out one at a time. Check out the ruins around the corner when you come out. Just stand there for a while to digest all that food. (Don't feed the goddam cats you tourist!)

Architecture is amazing, standing in the presence of this beauty is breathtaking Castel Sant'Angelo, also known as Mausoleum of Hadrian, is a towering rotunda in Parco Adriano, Rome, Italy. It was initially commissioned by the Roman Emperor Hadrian as a mausoleum for himself and his family. The popes later used the building as a fortress and castle, and it is now a museum.

Castel Sant'Angelo…read more Castel Sant'Angelo is absolutely breathtaking. From the moment you see it, it feels powerful and full of history. Walking through the castle, you can really feel how much this place has witnessed over the centuries. The views from the top are unreal. Seeing Rome and the Vatican from the terrace is one of the most beautiful sights I experienced on my trip. The architecture, the details, and the atmosphere all come together perfectly. This is one of those places that surprises you in the best way and leaves a lasting impression. A must-visit in Rome. Rating: 10/10
