Colline Ciociare Rome

Colline Ciociare sits on Via Prenestina in Acuto. It is a ten-minute walk from the Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta and holds a Michelin star.

This kitchen handles the friction between traditional and modern Italian cooking better than most regional peers. While many restaurants in the Acuto Medieval Village trade on the rustic nostalgia of the countryside, the food here is sharper and more precise. It is dressier than its neighbors, and for those who choose to dine here, the reputation is earned by the current output rather than the heritage of the kitchen. With a ranking of no. 30 on La Liste and a spot on the 50 Top Italy list, the room relies on a technical discipline that the surrounding trattorias rarely attempt. You go here for the clarity of the craft, which remains the best reason to travel this far into Lazio.
