The best kosher restaurants in Rome: where to eat in the Ghetto and beyond
Rome is one of the easiest cities to eat kosher in without planning every meal: the Jewish Ghetto, home of the Great Synagogue, is full of kosher places a short walk from one another, and there are good spots outside it too. Here are four of the 16 kosher places we list, each with its address, kind of food and supervision as shown in our listing. A tip before you go: most places are closed on Shabbat and hours change with the season, so check opening times and book a table ahead on weekends and holidays.
Yotvata
An Israeli-style dairy café-restaurant on Piazza dei Cenci, close to the Great Synagogue. Dairy, Chalav Yisrael, under the Beth Din of the Jewish Community of Rome (Rav Di Segni). Open Friday lunchtime and Saturday night after Shabbat.

A veteran Roman-Jewish bakery, open since 1815 and run by the Limentani family, famous for its "Jewish pizza" (a fruit-and-nut cake) and ricotta-cherry tart. Closed on Saturday. Note: the shop right next door, a separate and unrelated business, also sells non-kosher products, so confirm the current supervision with the Rome Jewish Community.

A meat burger bar on Via di Santa Maria del Pianto in the Ghetto, a few steps from the Great Synagogue. Quick and easy when you want a meat meal without a full sit-down dinner. The chain has other kosher branches around Rome.

Dairy pasta and pizza, Chalav Yisrael, in Monteverde, away from the Ghetto and close to the local community. Supervised by the Jewish Community of Rome, and one of the highest-rated places in our Rome listings.
