Fodor's Expert Review Ai Tre Scalini

A traditional restaurant near the Colosseum, Ai Tre Scalini is old-school Roman with touches of the Sicilian. The seating outside in warm weather is pleasant, and dishes like bruschetta topped with baked ricotta and truffle-infused honey and an unusual radicchio and cheese-stuffed zagnolotti (small ravioli) in a lobster sauce highlight the chef's playfulness. A wide variety of second courses, from gilthead bream topped with paper-thin potato rounds, to simple beef with rosemary, are more straightforward, served by waiters who have clearly been around for quite some time.
