Best set-price menu in Rome

Da Mario restaurant in Rome, Italy

This Trastevere trattoria is 55 renowned for its €9 fixed-price menu, including wine. Mario's is a typical tratt of rough beamed ceilings, Roman prints and postcards, and one of the cheapest set menus in town. That set-priced menu includes a first course of spaghetti alla bolognese (meat sauce), spaghetti all'amatriciana, or penne arrabbiata (pasta quills in a "hopping mad" tomato sauce spiced with pepperoncino); a second course of half a roast chicken diavola, roast turkey, a breaded and fried veal cutlet alla milanese, or boiled or fried baccalà (codfish); plus a salad or cooked vegetables, fruit, 1/4 liter of white Velletri wine, 1/2 liter of mineral water, service, bread and cover charge. A la carte, prices run €3 to €7 for such scrumptious selections as rigatoni alla pajata, risotto with porcini mushrooms, penne pugliese with broccoli, or roast goose in a mushroom sauce.
