Sacro e Profano - Trevi, Rome

Just a few steps away from the iconic Trevi Fountain, Sacro e Profano presents one of the most interesting interiors in the area. Even if it's just for an Aperol Spritz, it's highly recommended to secure a table inside to fully appreciate the remarkable ambiance. The tasteful furnishings and complete air-conditioning make this two-level establishment particularly inviting. Originally an old church, now deconsecrated, its walls still bear frescoes of angels, and an antique but no longer functional organ graces the upper level.

The specialty of Sacro e Profano lies in Calabrese cuisine (if you're not familiar, don't hesitate to ask the server for an explanation), complemented by a carefully curated selection of wines from southern Italy. What makes this place even more remarkable is that all these delightful offerings come at honest prices. The menu tantalizes with a variety of refreshing Mediterranean dishes featuring seafood and pasta. For instance, their Benedetto Cavalieri spaghetti with carpet-shells, grilled prawns, or the catch of the day baked in a zucchini and mushroom crust are sure to delight your taste buds.

Another highlight to look out for is their special pizza, prepared right before your eyes, allowing you to witness the craftsmanship before it enters the wood-fired oven. In this moment, you will instantly notice that simplicity and the quality of ingredients are the main secrets behind their culinary artistry.
