Absolutely phenomenal! From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for something special. The pizza was nothing short of perfection—crispy crust, rich sauce, and toppings that tasted incredibly fresh. Every bite was a burst of flavor, and I was left completely speechless. The rest of the food was just as amazing, and the service was top-notch. You can tell they put love and passion into every dish. This is hands down the best pizza restaurant I’ve ever been to. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is the place to be! 10/10, highly recommend!

Campo Marzio

About the restaurant

Clorofilla is the new restaurant and cocktail oasis the locals can’t stop talking about. And who can blame them? Tucked away on a quiet side street footsteps from piazza Campo de’ Fiori, it’s the ultimate place for dinner and late night drinks.
Step inside this locale to be immersed in a completely different atmosphere…warm tones, good vibes, bricked walls, a stunning L-shaped bar with over 100 liquors, a cozy and trendy dining area and plants surrounding the whole setting. Not to mention a tree!
Stop by for aperitivo (€15) to indulge in a wide selection of drinks accompanied by cured meats and cheese boards. Italian gourmet cuisine as well as Roman delicacies with a twist are in store for you. From seasonal tartares to carbonara with truffle shavings, you’re in for a pleasant surprise at Clorofilla. And did I mention that everything is homemade – yes even the bread and sauces. And if you’ve got a sweet tooth, wait until you taste their desserts!

We are not fans of "tourist trap" restaurants. This one did not disappoint. The food was scratch made and AMAZING. I had the fried zucchini flowers as an appetizer. They were crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside. The cacio e pepe my husband and I split was phenomenal. We got the tiramisu for dessert and it was delicious. We enjoy sitting outside and the area is definitely a little back alley- lots of graffiti making it not as pretty as some of the areas nearby. The food and incredible service made up for it. Recommend sitting inside, the interior is charming. We love eating in places where locals eat, and this was one of them. Highly recommend!!!
