Besides a classy, wine bar atmosphere, Enoteca Roma offers an unmatched selection of eats and drinks. While the bar does not begin serving food until 5 p.m., guests may order cafe lunch food from the Letizia's next door. It's an ideal opportunity to snag a chocolate cupcake with one's book and Bordeaux. Enoteca's menu, however, stands well on its own: Roman-style pizza, 29 types of bruschetta, cheese flights, fancy salads and sides of olives, accompanied by an extensive list of wines by the flight, glass or bottle. The dim interior fits only a handful of tables for two and seats at the bar, but outdoor seating areas brimming with umbrellas in the front and the back can handle plenty of customers and their doggies.
