7 BC – 476 AD
Roman Empire
Since the Roman Empire, at banquets in the shadow of the Colosseum, Nonno Melo was already there serving wine and steaming dishes.
The Innkeeper
of Rome, forever
A timeless tavern, which preserves the true flavors of the Eternal City

Roman Empire
In the shadow of the Colosseum, Caesar and the aristocrats feasted. And Grandfather Melo was always there to serve wine and food, because the pleasure of the table knows no age.
Middle Ages
Throughout the centuries of courts and knights, among castles and inns, Grandfather Melo welcomed everyone equally: kings and peasants, warriors and travellers.
Because a plate of Carbonara is something no one should deny themselves.
7 BC – 476 AD
Renaissance
When Rome flourished with art and ingenuity during the Renaissance, even geniuses stopped by Nonno Melo : between a drawing and a glass of wine, they discovered that Amatriciana is a work of art.
7 BC – 476 AD
the Sweet Life
During the Dolce Vita years, between nights at the Trevi Fountain and the smiles of movie stars, Nonno Melo served his tiramisu. Because the real Rome, even then, shone at the table.
7 BC – 476 AD
Today's days
Today many things have changed,
but Grandpa Melo is still here.
The innkeeper of Rome who believes
in the power of cooking,
of wine that warms the heart,
and of the table that unites.
