    Pollo alla Cacciatore
    Austin B.

    tl;dr the gimmicky, Hot Pocket-esque trapizzini are more fun in theory than practice While pizza al taglio is the standard in Rome, a close competitor in baked street eats is the trapizzino (a portmanteau of "pizza" and "tramezzino"). These triangle-shaped focaccia pockets are stuffed with Italian stews and served ice cream cone-style in a paper wrapper. The concept was pioneered by Roman pizzaiolo Stefano Callegari nearly two decades ago, and the popular brand has since expanded across Italy (and there even is an outpost in NYC). As such, I was keen on trying the trapizzino in the city where it all started. The Trastevere location makes it home on a narrow side street just off the Piazza Trilussa. A queue trails down the block from the takeout window, and the menu is marked directly onto the panes. Past the arched doorway, this location hosts a full bar with counter seating. Wine bottles and pizza-adjacent pictures hang on the otherwise whitewashed walls. Cigarette smoke swirls through the air, and the walls echo with live music from street performers nearby. I visited late on a weekday evening, and Trapizzino was still popping. I opted for the signature Pollo alla Cacciatore flavor, and I received my made-to-order food about 10 minutes after ordering. The tender chicken chunks were tossed in a wine-forward sauce, but the combined flavor reminded me more of chicken noodle soup than chicken cacciatore. The focaccia-esque crust was fully wrapped around the fillings, and the final bites ended up soggy. Each trapizzino retails for ~$5, and a hefty appetite could reasonably handle 2-3 of these moderately sized snacks. The trapizzino reminded me of an elevated, made-from-scratch Hot Pockets -- complete with many of the same drawbacks. Namely, the texture simply doesn't hold up as well as a sturdy slice of 'zza. As such, while the gimmick was worth a try, I don't anticipate any need to return in the future.

    Tucked away in the charming streets of Trastevere, this spot turned out to be one of the culinary highlights of our trip to Italy. We started with the supplì, and they were absolutely spot-on -- crispy on the outside, perfectly gooey and flavorful inside, with that classic Roman balance of rice, cheese, and tomato. The mushroom and sausage dish was rich, earthy, and deeply satisfying comfort food with bold flavors. But the real surprise came in the form of the trapizzini. The meatball-stuffed trapizzino was a revelation crusty on the outside, pillowy soft on the inside, and packed with juicy, tender meatballs. Even better was the pollo alla cacciatora trapizzino: savory, aromatic, and perfectly seasoned like a home-cooked meal tucked into a piece of bread. Service was warm, fast, and friendly a laid-back atmosphere that still felt attentive. To top it off, their Aperol Spritz was well needed after so much walking perfectly balanced and refreshing. Whether you're on a casual stroll through Trastevere or intentionally seeking out great Roman street food, this place should be on your list. Authentic, flavorful, and full of heart exactly what you want in a local dining experience.

    Rome is full of tourist traps, this is NOT one of them. Trapizzino Trilussa lives up to the hype. It's a small little restaurant but the service and vibes were amazing. We got suppli (fried rice balls) to start and they were incredible. We got a few trapizzinos to share and they were delicious. When we got the bill it was very reasonable for the amount of food and drinks we got (~20€ per person). Definitely would visit again if I am ever back in Roma.

    What a cool fast food idea! Delicious meatball in an organic tomato sauce inbetween slices of focaccia bread

    Mangia!

    Walking around Rome, there are so many places vying for your business. We walked by the Trapizzino window and saw them serving these amazing looking sandwiches. We asked for a table and was shown a table that was across the street? Interesting but I'm open for adventure. We're in a spritz mood mood while in Italy so we started with a few Aprol Spritzes to get the lunch party started. The waitress spoke English which was a nice feature. I zero'd in on the fresh Burrata Trapizzino. Using their creamy cheese and freshly baked bread, what was served to me was an amazing sandwich from this restaurant. So glad we made the stop, enjoy!

    Well worth it!

    This was a fun, tasty little snack. I got the meatball one. The place had an overall cool vibe. I did see at another location. It was a little more active, but everyone here was nice. It was quick. It was hot and it was very flavorful. The sauce was to die for. I also had one of the rice ball stuff with cheese and meat and that was also good. I love that this one had a crunchy outside. Perfect for eating on the go

    Trapizzino in Trastevere is a fun, casual stop for elevated Roman street food. The trapizzini are flavorful, generously filled, & perfect for a quick bite while exploring the neighborhood. Informal, efficient, & 100% Roman.

    We saw this place on YouTube from The Pasini's and we just knew we had to visit. After a long tour of catacombs and crypts, we stopped here for lunch. Wonderful suppli and trapizzinos. Delicious, as promised. The suppli were some of the best we'd had. Service was quick and friendly. No issue with my butchered Italian, thankfully. Space is limited and it's not a place to hang out. But that's perfect at lunch time.

    Great food with plenty of options to choose from. Each trapizizno costs 5 euros, and having two is enough to fill the average person. They offer plenty of different flavors as well. Our waiter was very hospitable, and indoor seating was cozy. They offer both indoor seating and takeaway, which is really convenient. Definitely recommend

    First place I tried when I arrived in Rome. Ate here twice. Great drunk food to walk around and eat on the go.

    Holy arancini balls!
    Grace K.

    Hands down the best arancini we've ever had! Perfectly crisp on the outside and moist, flavorful, and well balanced on the inside- unlike many places where they come out dry or fall apart. We were able to seat ourselves outside and our server was welcoming and helpful. The shaded area we were sitting in is right across from their indoor seating and a good people watching spot. We also tried the pizza pockets: one with meatballs and marinara, the other with chicken cacciatore. Both were piping hot, saucy, and packed with flavor. The sparkling wine flight was a refreshing choice on a warm day, and the flavored iced tea was a nice touch. A delicious and memorable meal all around.

    Chicken, meatball, supli

    I loved the chicken trapizzino! The wine taste and amount of chicken in it was great! It wasn't worth ever going back for, but I'm glad I tried it! My boyfriend enjoyed the meatball one, but there was less meat. The suplj was good and probably the best thing we got! We sat outside and were approached by peddlers, but they can't really help that.

    I tried 5 different kind of them and they were all delicious, they are fast and nice , the food is different and delicious and the price is really good, if you wanna have a affordable dinner and enjoy a good food in trastevere, you have to go there. Service: 5/5 Food: 4/5

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

I had possibly the most amazing chick food pasta a girl could imagine. Girls know what girl food is. The pasta in Italy is just better -obviously. But then put all sorts of girl flavors on it like Lemon and Orange, just lightly enough, zest with a small hint of cheese-..... omgosh. Yes, yes, and yes. Need my hubs to replicate at home. He is going to be busy trying to perfect this. Tagliatelle with orange and lemon parmesan. This was it. It was the best. Everything else we ordered was amazing as well. Wait outside. They don't have a sign telling you to wait, no server telling you to wait. You wait out there, wondering if you're in the right place, but then people stand behind you and you're like - oh! I'm here. This is the place. There are possibly 4 tables inside. It's small. I read about them being rude- we did not have that problem. In fact, they made a mistake and we kindly let them know we ordered something else- they corrected it and were nice about it.

So happy we did as this place definitely delivers. There is seriously like 8 tables in the dining room so expect a wait in line but trust me, it's worth it. We waited outside for about 25 minutes. They do take your order while in line so the wait for food (once you do get a table) is abbreviated. Out of the world pastas and the pistachio tiramisu is seriously out of this world. Inexpensive table wine rounds out a great meal. This is the type of place I love to go to. It's quaint, zero pretense and delivers on its food. A great find!
