About

What is Rimessa Roscioli?

A restaurant? A wine bar? A tasting room? A show? Yes! It’s Rimessa Roscioli – it’s all of those things set in a sophisticated, yet informal and relaxing space in the heart of Rome.

A word from Rimessa Founder, Alessandro Pepe:

Born to satisfy my deepest desires, I created Rimessa Roscioli based on on a synthesis of all the things I used to look for on a night out - to stay with my friends, meet new friends, taste good wines and food, share that pleasure with other people, have a cultural experience, and to look for the unexpected.

All the things I know, all my past experiences, all my success and failures have built this unique space. In the last 30 years I've been an actor, a theater director, a documentarist, a writer, a stand up comedian, a waiter, a sommelier. Now at Rimessa, all these things are part of one experience.

And who is it for? Everyone. From casual wine drinkers to collectors and connoisseurs - we have a special experience no matter what your level is.

But what really happens at Rimessa? Whatever you want!

  • Learn about wines, Italian culture, and philosophy
  • Find the love of your life (I did)
  • Celebrate your wedding, anniversary or divorce
  • Cure your sadness and stimulate your creativity

And if you still don’t understand what Rimessa Roscioli is, I hope it’s piqued your curiosity so you’ll come and see for yourself. You will not regret it.

The Roscioli Family Story

Roscioli is a family that, for four generations, has worked in the world of hospitality, food, and wine. It all started with the bakery on Via dei Chiavari. Then our set-up developed with the grocer on Via Giubbonari, which we now know as Ristorante Salumeria Roscioli. Antico Forno Roscioli is one of the historic brands of Rome; certificates have been recovered that attest to its presence in the Regola district since the first half of the 1800s.

A papal edict arranged for the establishment of a bakery that would sell bread at affordable prices to people with limited financial ability right on Via dei Chiavari, and the Vatican census dated August 17th, 1824 confirms it all.

Roscioli today is still a family: Alessandro and Pierluigi, two brothers who carry on the tradition, not allowing it to disappear as a custom of the past, but keeping it with the times, anticipating today’s food and wine needs, and focusing, with great passion, on the high quality of their selections.
