Top Rome Food, Wine & Nightlife

Our guide Greta was excellent and the variety of food and wine we sampled was almost too much. It was a great experience.

A must do if in Rome! Not only was Julia a great guide - friendly, informative and great company - but the selection of food and wine was amazing! Also, if you have limited time in Rome, this is perfect! Four hours to see main tourist sites and enjoy great food, wine and beer? GREAT IDEA! Would recommend and actually would do it again!

Highly recommend this tour. Our guide Julia was very fun and knowledgeable. It was a perfect blend of salty vs sweet and eating and walking with sight seeing and history.

Matteo was excellent👌 We Really enjoyed the evening. I Will definitely do it again. I’ve already recommended to some friends

Davide was absolutely amazing! He took time to learn our interests and was so very personable. He’s also quite a talented chef and teacher. I highly recommend!

Davide is awesome. My sister and I were the only ones there on this night. He did not just go over the recipe but talked a bit about where the ingredients came from. We had a great time. A very nice person and a great time. Absolutely delicious and worth every penny. We came back the next day and ate lunch at the restaurant. In a more populated area - there were no tourists. That’s saying something.

Excellent experience. Daniela was very knowledgeable about both food and the area. It was a great way to start off the week in Rome with insider information on where to eat and what to see. Would recommend this experience to anyone.

This was a wonderful evening! Martina, our guide, was fabulous. She made everyone feel as if they were "home". We were 8 people in all (including Martina). The food was absolutely delicious, and the pairings were great as well. I very highly recommend this.

had a great time in Rome. The wine tasting was great as was the excellent dinner. The host was a lot of fun and made it an enjoyable night. I also met a family on the tour who were great fun. The whole evening was amazing. would do it again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day! Monica and her assistant were amazing, caring, thoughtful! The food was delicious! The small town was beautiful and charming! Highly recommended!

We had a great day with Marco and Roy in Mazzana Romana. Although the same or similar classes are offered in Rome, we very much enjoyed the trip to the town of Mazzana Romana and the change from the City. All of the logistics went smoothly and on time. The shopping in Mazzana was fun and location for the lesson was charming. The food turned out to be delicious. But Marco and Roy were the best part of the trip. They were easy to be with and yet very professional. We truly did learn about Italian cooking and had a wonderful day doing it.

I had so much fun in this class! Elisa and Cornelia were both phenomenal. It's quite a drive to Mazzano Romano but the town itself is very nice and gives you a good small town feel. I enjoyed the market aspect of the tour where they will take you to a local butcher and other stores. We helped in cooking a lot of things - 6 to be exact. And since we did this on my birthday, they even baked a chocolate cake for me! I highly recommend this tour. Pro tip: try to skip breakfast if you can, you're definitely going to need the extra space!

it was vey well done and the tour guide was very knowledgeable!!!! Small group and up close and personal!!

Food and wine were great. Tour guide was awesome and had a lot of fun. We tried a lot of food and cheese and drank plenty of wine.

We loved every stop of this tour. Our guide was extremely personable and made everyone feel very welcome in our group of 10. That takes special talent. We learned a lot in a short period of time (all while eating and drinking delicious treats) about everything from the cuts of meats to the process for making and labeling wines, cheeses, and balsamic vinegars. If you leave this tour without a full stomach and a bit of a wine high, that's you're own fault. What a wonderful way to spend a night in Rome. We only wish that we had taken this tour sooner in our trip!

This tour was amazing. Christian, who was the sommelier for the winery, was very engaging and full of interesting information about the property and the wine we were tasting. Paola was also great! We had so much fun on the trip there and back. She helped make the experience unforgettable. Thank you so much for an amazing experience!

We ended up being the only ones on the tour and it was magnificent!! We met with the driver and had a very pleasant drive up to the vineyards without any complications. Christian, our wonderful host and wine master was incredibly knowledgeable about his wines and made us feel like family. The food was absolutely delicious and some of the best we had while In Rome. The wine was also incredibly delightful, full of great flavors and aromas and paired nicely with each dish that was presented to us. We even ending up bringing a couple bottles home with us ! We would most definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable experience with great company, food and wine! Thank you! Jon and Jordan

Rome is a beautiful yet busy city. This tour is the escape any couple craves : castle, wine, countryside.

From the moment we arrived, we knew this would be a special evening. The view of the Vatican, the aesthetically pleasing kitchen and care to detail, as well as the warm host and chef combined made this a memorable and special experience. It was interactive-learning how to make tiramisu, gnocchi and ravioli-and was full of helpful family tidbits. Whether you are a master chef or a beginner you are guaranteed to learn something new and enjoy every last bite of your labors. I highly recommend this experience.

Fabulous experience. Gracious & funny masterful chefs. Magnificent view. Beautiful kitchen. Truly memorable event

Bruno and the chef were great. Very friendly. We missed a different tour earlier in the day and Bruno happily helped us call the other tour company to sort things out. The food was so delicious and easy to follow making instructions. Would definitely do this again if we come back to Rome. Thank you!

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Tour guide was patient and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful evening during this tour. Lots of courses and great food and along with a history lesson. We would highly recommend you ask for Gulia to be your guide as she puts in a lot effort and love in the trip.

This was a very well done tour if you are looking for a General Food tour and some quick highlights of the Jewish ghetto. I assumed this was a food tour inside the Jewish ghetto where there are many restaurants. We only stopped at 1 restaurant inside the ghetto. Our guide was a fantastic & knowledge art historian. So if your looking for a general food tour- this was very good. If your looking for a Food tour inside the Jewish ghetto- this is not it!

I recently attended the food tour and Valeria was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable about Roman food and the local area. The food we tasted was excellent, - the suppli the gelato were particularly great. I also enjoyed the market and finding out the seasonal foods/ dishes for Winter.

Lisa was amazing! We learned so much about the history of Rome and the history of food in Rome. Truly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome!

Claudio was very informative and entertaining. Rome has alot of history so it's nice to have a local show you around their city. Plus you get to try delicious foods and wine!

We had an amazing time eating and drinking in Trastavere with our guide, Alina. She had all kinds of information about the sights we saw and food/wine we drank, and was a lot of fun to hang out with. HIGHLY recommended!!

I did the evening food tour in Trastevere with Francesca and it was such a great experience -everyone should do this tour! First of all, Francesca is a fantastic guide - really engaging, created a sense of family among our group and is very knowledgeable. Second, the food is great! We covered a lot in 4 hours and everything we experienced was delicious. well worth the time and money!

Francesca was amazing! She was personable and knowledgeable. She made sure we had everything we needed. There was not an extensive amount of walking but there was a good amount of eating. We were full by the end.

We loved this experience! Simone is an amazing host and very helpful. We missed the train from Rome and he rescheduled our experience for later that same day. Once we arrived, we explored the town of Frascati for several hours before our Pasta Making experience began. Watching the rhythm of daily life in a small Italian town was relaxing and enjoyable. We loved this experience - the wine tasting, making the pasta, watching Simone make our sauces, then eating our creations. It was a wonderful experience, a great value for the money, and I highly recommend it! Just make sure you allow plenty of time at Termini station to buy your tickets and get to the correct platform so you don't miss the train!

My husband and I booked this just a couple of days before attending - we wanted to do a wine tasting before heading home, and were excited to find this combined experience of pasta making. It was such a great experience and, hands down, one of the highlights of our trip! The staff were personable and did a wonderful job sharing their family's history, the story of their wines, and the pasta making process. It was a small group, so each of us were able to receive support and never did you feel like you were being ignored or waiting too long to move onto the next step. The pasta making process is simple, and even the most inexperienced of chefs can enjoy the experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an authentic experience while on holiday near Rome.

We recommend this tour for everyone! Even who doesn't like to cook can enjoy the tastings and a little view at the tiny and beautiful city of Frascatti. It was a great time spent there.

Really enjoyable tour with a knowledgeable and friendly guide. The food tastings were all delicious and we were introduced to lots of great places we would have never found on our own.

The tour was very informative and I enjoyed it immensely, so much food and all good. Our guide Roger was very very good

I had this tour to myself, and Roger, my guide was great. Since I was the only person who signed up he tailored the tour to also include history about the sights we passed on the way-which was great! The food was also a fun way to get to know the city as someone who just arrived.

This was our second time doing a food walking tour (we did one last year in Bologna) and worth every penny. Marcello was an excellent, fun guide. And you have to try the fried cod!

First visit for Prosecco & Cheese was excellent with fantastic knowledge & excellent product.2nd visit was for deep fried cod & frascati - generous portions & tasty.next visit was salami & red wine which was very good with a big selection of salami.Dinner was really good - big portions & very tasty.Finally our gelato visit was a great way to end the night.Our guide Adrian ( from Albania )was a really friendly family man with good local knowledge about the food and all the locations we visited.I would highly recommend this tour as it is exceptional value for money.Thank you

We had the best time in this tour! We got endless amounts of yummy food and wine. Most of the places we went to were off the beaten path that we wouldn’t have ever discovered ourselves and were absolutely delicious! Highly recommend

Stefano and Rafaella (our chefs for the evening) were outstanding! We had a large U.S. based group visiting Italy. Everything was well organized from the meeting point, to the walk to the event, through to enjoying dinner, plenty of wine, etc. I'd highly recommend!

We enjoyed the small-group pasta making experience. The most hands-on part of the evening is the actually making of the pasta, which was taught to us as a step-by-step process. Drinks not quite as free-flowing as expected. The pasta-making class was actually in an apartment complex. Dessert on offer was store-bought Panetone, which while nice was a bit unexpected, after a prepared antipasto and then the made pasta.

We had a group of six (range in age from 20 - 50) and all had a great time. Not a cook by any means but now excited to make pasta for friends and family. The instructors were great, funny, and a real pleasure. What a way to end a wonderful trip to Rome.

We had a great time at this wine tasting. Our group leader knew what she was talking about and had a lot to teach us.

We've done wine tastings all of the world and this one was OK. The three wines were a white that was not well loved by the 6 guests, a rose and a red. I would have preferred 2 whites and 2 reds and skip the rose. Plenty of food to try with the tastings but only 1 that went with red wine. Our host was knowledgeable, but didn't get to know us past the fact that we are all Americans. Then she left without waiting for us to finish our wine/food and conversations so we could tip her, which we were ready to do. Company was pleasant and location by the Colosseum was convenient, but I've like other wine tastings better.

Beautiful and delicious experience. Our guide Domenico was knowledgeable, engaging. Got everybody involved into food. Very enthusiastic. Everybody got a good time. Enriching experience. We went to local Places with delicious roman dishes. Jessica & Kevin

The food was amazing and our guide was very knowledgeable. I didn’t stay for the last 2 places since I was extremely tired but the first 3 were awesome

Our guide Francesca was friendly, made us feel like family and had a wonderful sense of humor. The Prati local family owned deli, restaurants, best pizza in Roma and unique, delicious gelato was molto bene! Our familia will recommend this tour to everyone! Ciao!

Great experience with great chefs! They really explained every step with what to do and why. Very accommodating to my own preferences of taste. Definitely recommend!

Really enjoyed this experience. We had 2 great chefs show us how to make amazing pasta and tiramisu. They were really patient and encouraging and told us some great tips for when we attempt to make ourselves at home. And it all tasted delicious! My husband and I would highly recommend this experience.

The chef was great, learnt some life skills and would recommend it to anyone wanting a different kind of night in Rome. The food was also brilliant which made for a great end of class treat.

Very enjoyable...chef was late but it all worked out. Husband, who doesn't cook, also had a good time.

Class took place in a very nice restaurant. Everything was well organized. The small group class was nice, and most of all- Theo, our chef, was amazing; highly professional and experienced, kind and patient. He created a very nice atmosphere, and the food was VERY GOOD. We loved every minute!

I booked this class on a whim, as I inadvertently had an extra day in Rome with a flight cancellation. And, I am sooo glad I did. The class was small and an intimate grop size of six of us--with detailed attention from the instructor. He spoke very good english and answered all our questions and gave us tips and pointers to help us along the way--and to help make the pasta at home on our own successfully. The class was so enjoyable, educational and delicious--as we all sat down together in the dining room to enjoy the fruits of our labor. The pasta was delicious and so was our tiramisu. So much better than other cooking classes I have taken abroad on holidays. This is so worth the time and money! I am already back home--and successfully made a delicious batch our homemade hand-cut pasta just like Joaquin taught us. Today--I am going to try making the handmade farafalle he taught us. I am so happy I took this class and cannot recommend it more highly! My next trip to Rome, I would love to take another class with Eat & Walk Italy and for different recipes. Thank you--mille grazie!

When we think about visiting Italy, for most of us, I think the first thing that comes to mind is the food. So what better way to take that home than to learn some Italian cooking? Chef Alessandri was an excellent instructor. He kept things light and fun, while sharing a lot of information. One of the things I really liked was that he not only explained HOW to do things - he also explained WHY something should be prepared a certain way to cook it properly and bring out the right flavors. With it being a half-day course, we got to cover a lot of ground. Our class worked on three pasta dishes, each with its own type of pasta and a matching sauce that was quite different from the others. The tomato mother sauce was delicious, of course. The gnocchi turned out to be the best I've had - it nearly melted in your mouth. If you can set aside half a day during your visit to Rome, I would definitely recommend this class. You'll have some new knowledge for making dinner when you get home... and your friends will ooh and ahh over the pictures.

Chef Federico was personable and knew his stuff. We arrived at Piazza Farnese and did a bit of exploring in the market and surrounding narrow cobbled streets. Chef and his two sou chefs were right on time. Our market visit and subsequent cheese ship and butcher shop visits were very informative. Walking to his well equipped cooking studio was a bit of a challenge over the gobble stones. Not recommended for mobility challenged. After washing up, we donned our aprons and got to work. During the next four hours we prepared three different handmade pastas and sauces and a main dish of veal loin and learned a myriad of cool culinary tips. Then we enjoyed the fruits of our labors and those of Chef and his Sou Chefs...accompanied by a choice of excellent red and white local Italian wines. Since we had previously done the must-see tourist attractions, this Chef in a Day Class was well worth the time and the price! Manga and Enjoy!

The class size was perfect. About 9 students. It was fun going to the market with Chef Minelli to choose the vegetables, cheeses, breads. Chef Minelli showed us how to make from scratch 3 types of pastas one filled with freshly made pesto. We also made fresh Mother Sauce to go with the pasta. The class participated making the dishes with personalized instruction from the chef. Chef Minelli explained things throughout the class such as why three types of tomatoes are used for the sauce or how and why to properly cook the potatoes for the gnocchi. The presentation of all the dishes was impressive. Chef Minelli and his two assistants did an excellent job with the cooking class. Also, the wine was plentiful and delicious too. I would highly recommend taking this class. Informative, organized, professional, delicious and memorable.

This was an outstanding tour. Come hungry because you'll need the room in your stomach. Our guide, Monica was outgoing, informative, knowledgeable and friendly. The food and wine was all very good as well. Definitely don't miss out on this tour while you're here.

Excellent tour. We arrived in Rome that afternoon. Our guide not only explained the various types of restaurants as well as getting food samples. We only had 7 people, which made the experience even better. Then we had a four course first dinner in Rome. What not to like.

We had a great time learning traditional methods to these dishes. The instructors give clear and easy to follow instructions. They help you through each step so that you truly understand. I will use what I have learned for when I get home.

the class was fantastic. we did meatballs and Ravioli. my wife has a gluuten allegry, and we were going to cancel when we found out what we were cooking, but they graciously allowed her to cook (she is not allergic to touching glutinous things) and then made her a gluten free meal so she could eat with us. just a great overall experience.

We had a great time at this class. I had read previous reviews and we had been told by our travel agent that the location of this class was a private residence. When we arrived, we were surprised to find that it was a small restaurant. Our instructor was very patient and explained well as we went along. He went around the table multiple times to help out the class--about 12 people. Making pasta by hand is a lot of work! My kids, ages 10 and 12, had a great time too. They were very happy to get their hands dirty! First we made meatballs by combining the meat and soggy bread, then rolling the balls. The pasta dough for the ravioli took the bulk of our prep time. The filling was ricotta cheese and a bit of spinach. Everyone in the class got the raviolis that they made. The kitchen in the back cooked each group's food separately, which was good for the others because our raviolis weren't the best looking. It was very good, if a little bland. This was definitely a carb- and gluten-heavy meal. Overall we had a great time, especially my kids. My only complaint is that the meat (for meatballs) and the filling of the raviolis seemed a little sparse. But I would recommend this activity because how many people can say they made pasta in Rome?!?

The staff was so nice and the tour was incredible. The food and the quality of the wine were amazing.

We spent four days in Rome before departing on a 10 day cruise. We did this tour on our final night. The guide was very good as was the dinner which was included in the tour. Rome at night is beautiful and the sites we visited were especially lovely at night. The Trevi Fountain was just reopened following extensive cleaning and was wonderful. We all left our coins there in hopes of our return to the Eternal City!

Simon was excellent guide, enjoyed the food, making new friends, time and photo opportunities, was great

The tour guide was excellent and the food very good. However the tour was not scheduled to take us back to the hotel. We were left to find a way back on our own. This was unacceptable to leave guest late at night In a city they don't know.

Guide was exeptional. Food stops were great and information educational. Just what I was epecting even better.

Adrian was very friendly and knowledgeable, Good sample of different foods (loved the salami but pasta was a little disappointing... too dry). Wine at most food stops so be prepared. Lots of walking involved.

Adrian was our guide on the evening - he involved the group and made the tour most interesting. The food and wine was amazing! Well worth it! Thanks Adrian.
