Pizzeria Baffetto

Frommer's Review

Our Roman friends always take out-of-towners here when they ask for the best pizza in Rome. Arguably, Pizzeria Baffetto fills the bill and has done so for the past 80 years. Pizzas are sold as piccolo (small), media (medium), or grande (large). Most pizza aficionados order the margherita, which is the simplest version, with mozzarella and tomato sauce, but a wide range of toppings is served. The chef is proud of his pizza Baffetto, the house specialty. It comes with a topping of tomato sauce, mozzarella, mushrooms, onions, sausages, roasted peppers, and eggs. The pizza crusts are delightfully thin, and the pies are served piping hot from the intense heat of the ancient ovens.
