Palazzo Manfredi, Rome’s distinguished five-star retreat, has unveiled its latest culinary destination: Aroma Bistro, an inviting terrace bistro that redefines informal luxury dining with unrivaled views across the city’s ancient treasures.
This newly opened bistro offers a relaxed alternative to the hotel’s acclaimed flagship, the Michelin-starred Aroma Restaurant. Both venues are helmed by celebrated chef Giuseppe di Lorio, who brings his creative vision to Aroma Bistro’s approachable yet refined menu.
Guests can savor contemporary Italian classics while gazing out over the Oppian Hill and the storied remains of the Domus Aurea. Signature dishes include a tableside-shaken rigatoni carbonara, a vibrant asparagus and taleggio risotto, and swordfish roulade with sun-ripened tomatoes, Taggiasca olives, and Provola cheese—a testament to the region’s rich culinary heritage.
