In the Eternal City, Gigi Rigolatto embodies la dolce vita

Gigi Rigolatto, the much-loved lifestyle dining destination has officially opened its doors and brings its signature philosophy of La Vita “Alla Grande” to a rooftop in Rome.

Set high above the historic streets of Rome, Gigi Rigolatto Roma is a rooftop sanctuary, where guests are treated to uninterrupted panoramic views of the Roman skyline including a direct view of the Pantheon, just steps away. The design, crafted in collaboration with Hugo Toro, evokes the golden age of Italian style through a French lens, marrying vintage glamour with modern sophistication. Every detail, from marble finishes to mid-century textures, is a tribute to both Italian heritage and international flair.

Designed to embody la dolce vita, Gigi Roma’s menu journeys through Italy’s diverse culinary landscape bringing together seasonal flavours, traditional recipes, and creative presentations. From handmade pastas and wood-fired mains to fresh seafood and delicately balanced desserts, each dish pays homage to the land while inviting playful exploration.

At the heart of the experience is the Bellini Bar a signature element of Gigi’s identity. Known for its refined twist on the iconic cocktail, it also offers a curated list of vintage wines, craft Italian spirits, and elegant aperitifs.

Gigi Rigolatto Roma isn’t just a restaurant: it’s a mood, a gathering place, a celebration. It’s a destination where long lunches melt into sunset aperitivo, where locals and travellers toast to life’s pleasures under the Roman sky. Whether you’re here for an intimate dinner, a lively lunch, or a glamorous private celebration, Gigi invites guests to experience the city “Alla Grande” with passion, beauty, and just the right amount of extravagance. This newest opening marks a significant chapter in the Gigi legacy one that embraces the soul of the Eternal City while introducing a fresh, elevated interpretation of the Italian way of life.
