Pizza - The real thing!
How many times have you heard Romans say:"This is the best place for pizza!" According to them, and me, they're all good but sometimes one just stands out from the crowds and that's why I'm here to tell you about 'Da Ivo'. A no frills, checkered table cloths, family-run restaurant serving up thin and juicy pizzas for a bargain. This place is always packed, and closes very late in the summertime (they'll serve till 11.30pm!). The pizza is strictly oven-baked and the pasta dishes homemade by the 'mamma' and 'nonna' of the guys who work there. Try the buffalo mozzarella pizza - hot, rich, cheesy, perfect.
Appetizers abound and so do typical Roman dishes prepared with cow entrails and the like... You're forewarned.
