The story
Livello 1 was born from a straightforward conviction: let the finest ingredients from the sea speak for themselves. In Rome’s EUR district, the restaurant combines classic seafood dishes with the more inventive creations of chef Mirko di Mattia. The result is a kitchen that feels both grounded and fresh.
A young chef who learned his craft in some of Rome’s most respected kitchens, Mirko di Mattia respects tradition while adding his own genuine, imaginative touch. His cooking is direct, focused on quality, and driven by the day’s catch. The Michelin guide has recognised Livello 1 for this approach, placing it among the city’s recommended seafood destinations.
The dining room is elegant and comfortable, with a refined yet welcoming feel. The team guides guests through a carefully selected list of wines, oils, and distillates. At lunch and dinner, the pace is unhurried, the setting quietly sophisticated.
Attached to the restaurant is La Pescatoria, a fish shop that sources its selection daily from local auctions. It also offers prepared dishes from the restaurant’s kitchen, ready to take home or enjoy as a quick, high-quality lunch. This connection between restaurant and shop underscores Livello 1’s commitment to freshness and traceability.
