Michelin Star, One of the best restaurants in Rome

Entering Imàgo, the Hassler’s 6th floor panoramic Michelin starred restaurant in Rome with its unique view over the city, is to be greeted by a beautiful life-size painting that fills each window of this spectacular location loved by the Roman locals and international guests alike. Soft music, elegant and refined decor with an antique-wooden inlay, and the romantic play of light reflecting on the mirrors, all conspires to create a magical atmosphere, a sense of being in another time and space in a restaurant steeped in memorable history.

Sitting down at one of the top restaurants in Rome City centre, at the top of the Spanish Steps, one is instantly attended to by the Maitre, always happy to point out the names of the various monuments and cupolas on the horizon. Starting from left to right: the church of Santa Maria Maggiore, San Giovanni in Laterano, the Quirinale, Villa Colonna and the church of Sant’Andrea delle Fratte, the Campidoglio (Capitol Hill) and monument to Victor Emmanuel II, Palazzo Venezia, the Aventino hill, the Pantheon, the church of Sant’Agnese in Piazza Navona, Castel Sant’Angelo, the obelisk and Trinità dei Monti Church which one can almost reach out and touch, Villa Medici and the Borghese gardens.

Imàgo is a full experience of fine dining in Rome. The background music and the stunning view are complemented by the taste, texture, and aroma of Executive Chef Andrea Antonini’s reinterpretation of Italian cuisine that goes into the Imàgo's festival dishes. Dishes are each carefully prepared and presented, his menus vary according to the season. The variety of what he presents is thought for each type of palate…an explosion of flavors that include the most refined combinations as well as traditional Italian cuisine, characterized by the ingredients and fragrances embedded within Italy’s rich history and culture.
