In the beating heart of Trastevere, two friends and business partners, Igor Amicone and Dario Stefanelli, brought a dream to life. Santi40 was born from a vision to create a space where the warmth of Parisian bistros meets the authenticity of Roman cuisine—a place where you feel at home, yet travel with your palate.

Trastevere, a neighborhood of vitality, tradition, and hospitality, has found in Santi40 a contemporary addition that respects its roots while embracing modern tastes. Here tradition is not a dusty memory, but a living promise that renews itself with every service.

Our philosophy is simple yet profound: to be a versatile destination that transforms throughout the day. In the morning we are an artisan coffeehouse where the aroma of freshly baked pastries awakens the senses. For lunch and dinner, we offer seasonal dishes that celebrate quality ingredients, where every course tells a story of territory and passion.

When the sun sets over Rome, Santi40 reveals its most intimate soul. Refined cocktails accompany elegant desserts, creating an atmosphere where time slows down and conversations deepen. Our carefully curated wine list celebrates the finest Italian and French labels—a liquid bridge between two great gastronomic cultures.

Our chefs select every ingredient with meticulous care, privileging freshness and seasonality. From trusted suppliers come raw materials that become dishes where Roman authenticity merges with an international perspective. Meat, fish, vegetarian proposals: every menu is designed to honor the past while looking to the future.

We believe that a restaurant is more than a place to eat—it's a sanctuary where memories are made, friendships are forged, and every meal becomes a celebration. A welcoming and authentic place, with an international dimension that makes you feel like a citizen of the world in the heart of Rome.
