The Japanese-inspired bar serves signature cocktails, as well as Italian wines by the glass, plus small nibbles like edamame or crispy calamari. Not only is the bar above the Fendi store, but it is also set in the very heart of Rome's most fashionable district, so the customers tend to look like they may have just stepped off a runway."

"Temakinho is known as the coolest sushi place in Rome – though a little on the pricier side, it’s perfect for a special occasion or unusual event. Even more so as it’s not traditional sushi, but the Brazilian version – expect to find typical sushi pairings, but also plentiful meat and caipirinhas to go with your temaki. With stunning pastel-coloured interiors that will make you feel you’re in a pineapple-flavoured acid dream, and colourful spreads of food, this is a restaurant that offers Instagrammable dishes that don’t compromise on quality or taste."

"Also found in the Monti neighborhood, Temakinho serves up Brazilian-Japanese fusion food, more specifically sushi with Brazilian flavors: tuna, salmon, and sea bass rolls are paired with ingredients like mango, coriander, lime, and other tropical ingredients. Temakinho also serves a variety of Brazilian beers. Reservations recommended."

"With three fun locations in Rome alone, reservations are highly recommended at Temakhino as these small restaurants tend to fill up fast for lunch and dinner. Address Borgo Angelico, 30 (Vatican) | Via dei Serpenti, 16 (Monti) | Via del Tritone, 62 (Piazza Barberini). Hours Check individual restaurant pages for hours"

"If you're yearning for something other than Italian food, Sakana Sushi is the place to go. In an oriental setting, traditional Japanese dishes are served. If you feel having your meal in a nearby park or just somewhere outside, Sakana Sushi also provides a takeaway menu to choose from."

"Via del Gazometro, 54 (Testaccio)Sakana-Sushi-Ristorante-Giapponese. Sakana is located in a peaceful area away from the centre, but don’t be fooled as it was very busy!. Sakana is on par with Hasekura in terms of freshness and quality of the food."

"After a successful debut at its Via Veneto location in 2006, Shinto recently opened another sushi joint, however this time at the First Luxury Art Hotel. Situated between the banks of the Tiber and the boutique-lined Via del Corso, the view from above looks onto the neighbouring rooftops and extends across the rest of the city. The design of the restaurant is easy-on-the-eye, with black-and-white furniture on a dark wooden parquet floor and a lit-up bar in the centre."

"Pizza may be Italy’s most-famous export, but Rome’s unique thin-crusted style is barely known beyond the city’s borders. This simple regional genre reaches its apex at Da Remo in Testaccio, where the thin and crispy pies are baked in a wood-fired oven. Order pizzas with sparse toppings — like the tomato-and-mozzarella-topped margherita — to avoid stressing the thin base, and always start the meal with assorted fried starters and simmered beans."

"The best pizza in Tastaccio is at Pizzeria Remo, which served delicious traditional rome pizza in one of the mosy traditional areas you can find. No frill environment, nice woodfire over, all the classics starters and pizza toppings: a good place for a no-frill pizza in Testaccio. Address: Piazza di S Maria Liberatrice, 44, 00153 Roma."

"Located in the heart of the working class district of Testaccio, Remo's pizza is pretty hard to top. This pizza place is most famous for its paper thin(literally) pizza. Menus don't exactly exist here, so be prepared to have in mind what kind of toppings you'll pick out for your pizza."
