Pizzeria da Ivo The
most famous pizzeria in Trastevere, definitely discovered by the
tourist crowds, but local fans never let them take it over completely.

Pizzeria da Ricci This
Liberty-style pizzeria, in the Ricci family since 1905, is hidden away
on a quiet dead-end street off Via Nazionale. The pizzas are tiny (many
people order two) but excellent; complement them with the sweet northern
Lazio white wine Est! Est! Est!, after which the place is nicknamed . Via Genova 32 06 488 1107 Closed Mon

Pizzeria dar Poeta There’s
a merry war between ultra thin-crust Roman pizza and thicker, chewier
Neapolitan pizza. Dar Poeta goes its own road, letting the dough rise a
full day (rather than the usual hour), resulting in a thin yet light
and airy pie loaded down with the freshest of toppings. Tucked into a
quiet Trastevere side street, with tables out front and an
air-conditioned brick-walled dining room .

Pizzeria da Vittorio Vittorio
Martini’s unassuming little place with its wood beams and a few tables
on the cobblestones out front serves fantastic Neapolitan-style pizza,
courtesy of award-winning pizzaiolo Angelo Jezzi. The mixed antipasti plate is generous and a great bargain . Acchiappafantasmi The
award-winning pizza is shaped vaguely like a ghost with olives for eyes
at this restaurant (the pizzeria’s name means “ghostbusters”). A
half-dozen Calabrese snacks are also available. The service can be slow. Via dei Cappellari 66 06 687 3462 Closed Mon, Tue–Fri L

Panattoni “L’Obitorio” This
Trastevere institution’s nickname (“the morgue”) refers to the chilly
effect of the marble that sheathes the walls and acts as tabletops. The
reception is as warm as the decor is cold, however, and the Roman pizza
as excellent as the supplì al telefono (fried rice balls with a melted mozzarella heart that makes a long “telephone” cord when you pull them apart). Open late. Viale Trastevere 53 06 580 0919 Closed Wed, L No credit cards
Pizzeria La Montecarlo Late opening hours have kept this simple Roman-style pizzeria packed with locals and students for years .
