Rome is a city very close to the coast, with a long, symbiotic relationship with the sea. Romans, in fact, are great lovers of fish and seafood in general. By tradition, these dishes can be cooked and enjoyed at home with friends, or in the bistrots and restaurants the city has in abundance.
Il Pescatorio is located in Monteverde, one of the city’s most lively and authentic neighbourhoods, also known as Gianicolense. Monteverde sits between south and west Rome — between the Vatican area, Villa Pamphili, the Gianicolo hill and Trastevere to the north, and the Portuense and EUR districts to the south.
Via Virginia Agnelli, in particular, connects the well-known areas of Viale dei Colli Portuensi and Casaletto — famous for their shops and elegant residences set among greenery — with the heights of Monteverde Nuovo, which open up between the major San Camillo, Forlanini and Spallanzani hospitals and Piazza San Giovanni di Dio, the true crossroads of the district, with its renowned local market and the meeting point of tram 8 and bus line 44.
