Are there vegetarian restaurants in Rome?

Italy is famous for her food and it is true that there are endless delicious things to eat and an untold number of remarkable restaurants and street food sellers and markets and more where you can find amazing dishes. Many of these dishes are meat-based but there are plenty of typical Italian dishes without meat that are wonderful options for vegetarians and will be found pretty readily on any menu. However, if you’re a vegetarian or a vegan and you’re on holidays, you might want to have lots and lots of tasty options - a whole menu of them - not just a smaller selection of suitable dishes. 

Rome, as the capital, is one of the cities with the most variety when it comes to amenities, restaurants, and stores and, therefore, has plenty of specialised eateries to choose from. So, if you want to book one of our vacation rentals in Rome and you are veggie or vegan and hope to eat very well during your trip, we have put together a small guide with answers to common questions about veggie-friendly options in the Eternal City.

There are some tourist attractions that are beyond famous and considered universally to be must-sees while in certain destinations. Among the many iconic examples that you might be thinking about visiting if you book a vacation rental in Rome, the Colosseum looms particularly large – both physically and as a very important part of the city’s cultural identity. However, you might be wondering, is it actually worth visiting?

It is a nation of taste-makers and culture creators, of living well and slow, and of the finer things.
