While exploring the culinary treasure of Rome you may find yourself in small cafes and street side trattorias, all small, charming, delicious and usually only capable of seating small groups at a time. If you’re traveling with a larger group or family and want to find a place for a great meal, there are many family-style restaurants that will accommodate you.

 

One of these family-style eateries is Hostaria del Moro, affectionately known as “Tony’s” after its gracious and lively host. Tony’s can accommodate large groups and serves massive family-style dishes to share. For €20 a person, your meal will include water, virtually bottomless wine, bread, rounds of antipasta, three different pasta dishes and dessert for your table to enjoy. It’s definitely a lot of bang for your buck, and you won’t leave hungry or disappointed.

 

The servings are so large you’ll be full by the end of the appetizer round, and drowning in wine by dinner. Located in the thick of the popular Trastevere section of Rome, Tony’s is a gem for large groups and families looking for a casual and fun eating experience to enjoy together.
