    Maranega is wonderful outdoors in the middle of Campo di Fiori. Any seat you get outside will be in good view of the outdoor atmosphere and random performers that stroll into the plaza. The service is really good. The greeter at the front is very smiley and welcoming and helped us with our reservation. (Even without an RSVP, there are a ton of tables outside). Our waitress was very tourist-friendly and was laidback--she even hooked me up with free wifi, as I was struggling to get some things done on my phone. The salad was rather large, split to taste between 4 people. It was very good, and well-balanced with sweetness from the grilled oranges and mildness from the mozzarella. The pesto pasta was so nice, with very fresh pasta and potent basil. It was also on a bed of arugula, which added some extra nuttiness to the dish. The pizza was good, but not the best neopolican that I've had. I'd stick with pasta here, it seems to be their better specialty. The tiramisu was very fresh whipped, but tasted more of the cream than any actual cake. I would have appreciated some more cake for textural balance. If you are planning to hit up Fiori, definitely try out Maranega. Their menu is very large with English on it, and the vibe here is wonderful. (Don't forget to hit up Flor gelato next door after.)

    Seafood Pasta with glass of Prosecco...the perfect combo!

    I stumbled across this place while visiting Campo de' Fiori. Skeptical that it might be too touristy and not authentic because of its location, I was surprised to find that the food here was AMAZING! I ordered the Seafood Pasta (special of the day) with a glass of prosecco. It was by far the most amazing seafood pasta I've had. Great flavors and the sauce was flavorful yet not too creamy/heavy. The seafood was pretty fresh as well. I would HIGHLY recommend. There is outdoor seating as well so you can soak up the sun while enjoying a nice view of the Campo de' Fiori market and people watch.

    Bufala e pachino and margherita

    We chose this place because was wanted pizza and to sit outside. This is in next to campo de Fiori so there's some fresh fruit veggies and shopping in the middle with restaurants surrounding. The gentleman lured us in to look at menu and the price for pizzas seemed fair. We had the Bufala e pachino and margherita - both really good and the crust was crispy. But the tomato was the best! So rich and delicious.

    Located in one of the most popular nightlife spots in Rome, Maranega is the perfect combination of a restaurant, a lounge/cocktail bar, and a cafè. Open from early morning, it offers a delicious continental breakfast, and during the day you can enjoy both Italian and American coffees together with a fine selection of cakes and pies. Don't miss the opportunity to eat lunch or dinner while watching the daily Roman life at Campo de' Fiori, or simply to stop for a drink. Maranega is "my favorite spot in the Campo" and I absolutely recommend it.

    Great spot to stop for a drink & people watching at the market in Campo di Fiore

    This is a great spot to stop while wandering through Campo di Fiore. It faces the main market square, so the people watching is fantastic. We ordered beer, wine and two large salads. The prices are relatively high for Rome but portions were large - both salads came in huge bowls and ingredients were fresh and tasty.

    Excellent place for lunch and watching people at the famous open market. We had fresh fried calamari & shrimp, grilled vegetables and green beans & the pizza named after the Piazza; the kids had a tube pasta with Ragu; they gave fresh bread that we dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar or our sauces from the meal. It is next door to the famous deli place from 1800's. Must eat and highly recommended!!

    Dinner in Rome that's nice and easy. 75€ ish for a family of 4. There was music on the piazza and touristy shops nearby with plenty of outdoor seating. Great for summer nights.

    Mold in jam :(((
    L L.

    We had a very beautiful Rome trip but there was Maranega. We ordert the american breakfast and after I asked for the jam again we got a stired cup of jam (Marmelade) I ate some and it tasted strange. I saw the stirred mold (see Picture) in the jam and asked for the boss. Now the best part. He told me this mold was normal in "homemade" jam like in gorgonzola because of the old italian jar so I asked for it. What he brought was a normal supermarked jar which was full of moulded jam. He then said that if I as an american traveld the world must know the maker of the jam and that the mold is normal (there is no such thing, google it) . He was surprised that I was not amarican and you could see that he feared that I would make a fuss and might be smart enough to see that he was lying. (Great attitude torwards your customers btw. :/ ) All very strange, 3 italian waiters arguing with no arguments and after he denied my proposal that he should then taste the mouldet jam it was all clear to me. It usually helps if you just say sorry and bring a fresh one and not try to lie your way out of it.

    Good food in the most crowded plaza in Rome, definitely a place to go if you travel to Rome.

    Delicious! We were only in Rome for a few days and we ate there twice. Try the spicy red sauce!

    La Casa del Tazza d'Oro - Granita di cafe con doppio panna (frozen coffee slush with whip cream)

    What a lovely place to relax and cool off from traipsing around Rome! The coffee granita was…read moredelicious and tasty! Service was quick and again lovely! granita with a view of the pantheon... cannot go wrong I can't wait to go back one day

    If you're looking for a classic Roman coffee experience, La Casa del Caffè Tazza d'Oro is…read moredefinitely one to add to your list. Located just steps from the Pantheon in Piazza della Rotonda, this historic coffee bar has been a Roman institution since 1946 and is especially known for its coffee, which has helped make it one of the city's most famous cafés. The line was pretty long when we arrived, but it moved surprisingly quickly. You can enjoy your coffee and pastries inside while standing at the counter, or, if you're lucky, grab one of the few seats available inside. There's also outdoor seating, but keep in mind that sitting outside comes with a separate--and if I remember correctly, significantly higher--service charge. I'll be honest--I'm pretty sure I ordered the wrong thing. I ended up with what was essentially a frosty coffee ice cream, which is not what I was going for, lol. I was supposed to order the Granita di caffè con panna, which is their signature. It's a coffee granita--essentially finely shaved/frozen coffee--topped with whipped cream. Instead of whipped cream, I accidentally told my Italian nephew I wanted the coffee with ice cream, whoops. I also ordered a maritozzo, which I was absolutely on a mission to try while in Rome. The maritozzo is a traditional Roman sweet bun filled generously with whipped cream, and it did not disappoint. I was in a bit of a rush, so I didn't have time to enjoy my maritozzo there. I packed it up and ate it later that evening, and it was still delicious. I've also essentially given up coffee completely, so I only had a few bites and sips of my coffee ice cream, but what I tried was really good. The menu is fairly large and varied, and it can feel a little overwhelming when you're standing at the counter with a line behind you. I'd recommend taking a look at the menu ahead of time if you can so you have an idea of what you want before you get up to order. Overall, I'd definitely recommend stopping by. Tazza d'Oro is an institution, the location is hard to beat, and there's something fun about experiencing one of Rome's longtime coffee traditions--even if you accidentally order the wrong thing like I did!
