Gay Rome Restaurants Trattoria Monti | Via San Vito, 13/a | (064) 466-573 | no website Handsome brothers in the front room, and mama in the back making dinner, Trattoria Monti is indeed the quintessential Italian hole in the wall you dream about for years afterward. Make sure to reserve, as it only has a few tables

Gay Rome Restaurants Taverna Edoardo II | Vicolo Margana 14 | 06-69942419 | no website This is hands-down the gayest restaurant in Rome, with something to look at no matter where your eyes land from the gay-themed kitsch on the walls to the clientele at the tables.

Gay Rome Restaurants Al Base Ristorante | Via Cavour, 274 | 06 474 0659 | http://www.labaseristorante.it/ Al Base is a gay-friendly restaurant near the Colosseum on the lively via Cavour.

Gay Rome Clubs Gay Village | via delle Tre Fontane | Gianluca: 349 6941054 | http://www.gayvillage.it Gay Village is open only in the summer, and even then, open only from Thursday to Sunday.
