Brasia

Brasia Review

This spacious trattoria on a back street off the Campo de' Fiori is a welcome, inexpensive addition to an area filled with tourist-riddled pizzerias and overpriced restaurants. The place itself is a huge space, but remains cozy because of brick walls and arched ceilings (the space actually harks back to the 17th century, and the name of the street it's on means "street of caves"). There's a wood-burning oven for homemade pizzas, and grilled meats are the other house specialty; here less expensive than in most spots. All typical Roman menu staples are found here as well: bruschette, mixed salumi and antipasti, and a variety of pasta standards.
