Fresh tonnarelli, Pecorino Romano, and cracked Tellicherry pepper — the Roman classic, perfectly simple.
Trattoria · West Village
A taste of Trastevere in the heart of New York
Handmade pasta, slow-braised classics, and a wine list that travels every region of Italy — served in a candlelit room on Grove Street.
From the kitchen
Signature plates
Recipes carried from Chef Marco Bellini’s family kitchen in Rome — refined for New York evenings, never rushed.
Veal shank braised for six hours in Barolo and tomatoes, served with saffron risotto and gremolata.
Espresso-soaked savoiardi, whipped mascarpone, and a generous veil of Valrhona cocoa.
Our story
From a Roman kitchen to Grove Street
Chef Marco Bellini grew up in Trastevere, rolling pasta beside his Nonna before the sun rose. In 2012 he opened Roma in a historic West Village townhouse — bringing her recipes, and the unhurried spirit of a neighborhood trattoria, across the Atlantic.
Every evening we still make our dough by hand, pour wines we love, and set a table that feels like home.

The room
Candlelight, conversation, and a glass of Barolo
Sixty seats. Exposed brick. A bar worth lingering at. Whether it’s a quiet Tuesday or a long Saturday night, Roma is built for evenings that unfold slowly.
