Colline Ciociare Rome

Colline Ciociare sits on Via Prenestina in Acuto. It holds a Michelin star, is ranked no. 30 on La Liste, and appears at no. 22 on the 50 Top Italy list of grandi ristoranti. The dining room sits a fifteen-minute walk from the Acuto Medieval Village.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the kitchen avoids the stiffness that often plagues fine dining in this region. While the menu blends traditional and modern Italian techniques, the appeal here is the lack of performance. It offers a sharper focus on the plate than the more tourist-heavy spots near the Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta, which sits a ten-minute walk away. You choose this place when you want the precision of a ranked kitchen without the artifice of a formal dining room.
