Located in the Trastevere neighborhood, Antica Pesa Roma can be found on a historic cobblestone street: Via Garibaldi, which in the 600s was the customs post location for the Papal State where wheat taxes were collected. This explains the curious name of Antica Pesa, or Antique Scales, which was coined at the end of the nineteenth century when its original function was replaced by that of a real osteria. It all began four generations ago, when the former osteria became a full-fledged restaurant. In 1922 with the first of four generations of the Panella family, Antica Pesa began its steady evolution to becoming an established restaurant recognized worldwide for its authentic Roman cuisine.
