Bar Leone

Bar Leone runs on a beautifully simple idea: cocktail popolari or drinks made for people, not presentations. The room glows warm with mahogany accents, burnt orange banquettes, walls papered with Italian cinema idols and AS Roma memorabilia. The Olive Oil Sour arrives velvety and unexpected, a whisper of nutmeg drifting up as you sip. Seasonal Negronis wander wherever the fruit leads: fig in autumn, blood orange when the timing’s right. Order the smoked olives and mortadella sandwich, or be prepared to get food envy when the other table does.

Tatler Tip

No reservations, just come as you are—and come early, because everyone else had the same idea.
