Osteria Barberini
Via Della Purificazione, 21, Ludovisi
Intimate and still reasonably priced (for Rome), Osteria Barberini always delivers an excellent meal and experience (you'll never forget the tagliolini with white truffles). There's plenty of fresh vegetables on the menu, making for a lighter reprieve from the rich dishes. Reservations can be tricky to snag here so be sure to book at least several days in advance.
