One of the best names for dining out in Roma, divided on three dining rooms furnished with elegance and style, in the city centre, near Piazza Navona and Tevere river. The front door face the street that take name by the vedette of the tower which ancient remains are visible at the top of the palace which put up the Troiani brothers Convivio: Giuseppe, careful maitre, Massimo, friendly and expert sommelier and Angelo, a top Chef in the Roman and Italian gastronomic outline.

Prawn and foie gras sauce
Convivio Troiani is elegance, style, padded atmosphere. Convivio Troiani is synonym of a refined, natural and savoured cuisine, based on modern concepts and characterised by research and respect of regional best ingredients and typical traditions, revised with fantasy by Angelo Troiani, a very talented and sensible Chef.
Dishes tastes are accurate, varied and stimulating, revealing elegance and audacity without forcing.
The host feel immediately welcome finding on the table the embroidered Flanders napkin leaned on the plate which highlights play with the frames of the malicious Eighteenth-century printings also reproduced on the Menu. 
From the cuisine arrive the fragrant home made breadsticks, the different types of bread (with onion, brown bread, rosette, ciabattine…) and appetizing amouse gorge, like perfect fried fish rejoiced by the idea of the candied ginger and by the herb teasing.
Quotations to Roman cuisine tradition begin with duck foie gras in a crust of figs to remember that the ancient Roman had been the first to nourish geese and ducks with the dried figs from the Southern regions to obtain the sweet iecor ficatum. The foie gras is al torcione (marinated and then wrapped in cheesecloth) and served by chocolate chips, walnuts and warm pan brioche.
Angelo Troiani’s expert hand is recognizable in one of his emblematic dishes, the striking vermicelli di Gragnano all’Amatriciana that unite character and softness (the secret ingredient is Traditional Modena balsamic vinegar!). The variation of Roman country spring lamb in four delicious dishes is very amusing because it plays with tastes, linkings and consistencies, inclusive tripe. 
The chapter of the innovative cuisine is in continuous evolution and gourmet people are seduced by the voluptuous embrace between crustaceans and pork tripe in the home made tagliatelle with biting note of roman pecorino cheese and mint, by the hand made ravioli stuffed with meat and lemon scented broth that recall Chef’s childhood tastes and by the roasted pigeon with tangerine sauce and smoked potatoes or by the browned quail with asparagus and caramelled honey mushrooms. 
Restaurant attention to details is confirmed by the water list, a very rich wine-cellar overflowing with Italian and international excellences and rarities, a great number of vintages and an interesting list of spirits to sip in the parlor before to go forward in the Roman night and hear the echo of gourmet memories in the Piazza Navona Bernini Rivers Fountain gushing.
