Il Leoncino in Rome’s Centro Storico: Classic Trattoria Near Pantheon

The Romans have their own distinct approach to pizza.

Their crusts are thin and crisp, quite different from the softer, fuller Neapolitan style.

A well-made Roman pizza will crack at the edges when you bend it, and when cooked properly the rim will show a pleasant charring.

Finding decent pizza in Rome isn’t hard — eating badly in the Eternal City is rare — but the pizza at Il Leoncino, just off Via del Corso in the Centro Storico, stands out. It ranks among the best I’ve ever tasted.

In fact, I’ll go further: it was the best pizza I’ve eaten — the finest.

Context matters with food. Il Leoncino is a small, unpretentious place, more canteen than fine dining. The tables have plastic cloths and the light is fluorescent; the surroundings are a little shabby.

But it’s authentic — a proper Roman pizzeria filled with locals.

The waiter added to the experience: a large, gruff man with a proud moustache and a white apron dusted with flour and soot from the oven. He didn’t speak English, and my Italian is minimal, so we pointed and mispronounced our choices. I tried to order focaccia, but through gestures it became clear there wasn’t room for it on top of two pizzas and a mixed salad — apparently that would have been too much.

I was looking for a simple homemade gift for my kids’ teachers and settled on candied pecans. I always loved the cinnamon-sugar flavor but assumed they were difficult to make—turns out they’re surprisingly easy. The only downside is how addictive they are; you may find yourself eating more than you planned and having less to … Read more
