The story
A few steps from the Pantheon and Piazza Navona, Casa Coppelle has been bringing a touch of Paris to Rome for 17 years. The project was born from the vision of Omar, a Roman, and his wife Rachelle, a French-Italian couple who fused their cultures into one address. What was once a typical Roman trattoria has been transformed into an elegant boutique restaurant that earned a Michelin Recommended distinction.
The menu draws from both the richness of Roman tradition and the audacity of French cooking. Dishes like carpaccio di gamberi, risotto cacio e pepe with prawns, and braised veal cheek sit alongside foie gras and soupe à l'oignons. A signature plate – linguina with mustard, lime and raw scallop – reinterprets a recipe from the chef's father. Everything, from the bread basket to the pastries, is made in-house.
The interiors are the work of architect Jacques Garcia, whose portfolio includes the Hôtel Costes in Paris, La Mamounia in Marrakech, and restorations at the Louvre and Versailles. Casa Coppelle is the only restaurant in Italy bearing his signature. The first salon features faithful reproductions of 17th- and 18th-century paintings; a black-and-gold Boudoir is reserved for the tasting menu.
This is a place where the eternal city meets French refinement – a fine-dining experience rooted in genuine passion and craftsmanship.
