Rome restaurants for Sunday dinner

I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions for a good restaurant open for Sunday dinner.Being open for Sunday evening in Rome seems to be a rarity.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Il Fico
Ditirambo
La Campana
Trattoria Polese
Vecchia Roma
Pierluigi

I know only two from personal experience. La Campana was a zoo at Sunday dinner, and the meal was not as good as the many lunches I've had there. Trattoria Polese was also pretty full, but maybe because it was outside, it didn't seem as hectic and disordered. The meal was the same as at other times: average or ever so slightly above average trattoria fare.

We have had dinner at Pierluigi 3 or 4 times and it keeps on getting better and better if that is possible. This summer we enjoyed sitting outside in the piazza and watching all the action as we ate. The food was wonderful, and the wait staff very helpful and english speaking. Ask for Umberto, he will plan an excellent meal for you!

Monday is more of a problem with restaurants not being open than
Sunday.

Zerlina-What else can you tell me about Trattoria Polese? We're renting an apartment in the same Piazza in March and I was thinking about going there. Any particular dishes you can recommend?
Also, are you familiar with Trattoria da Luigi which is supposedly in the same square?
Thanks!

the same question came up a few months ago. Here is that thread
http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...p;tid=35033535

the restaurant I recommended on that thread is Da Giggetto in the Ghetto neighborhood

Kristina, I went to Trattoria Polese because I trust the Access Rome guide that said it was better than Da Luigi. Also, I saw tour groups at Da Luigi but not at Polese.

Generally speaking, it is a good idea to order from the daily menu. Polese also serves pizza - even at lunch, which relatively few places do.
