Authentic (not touristy) food near Colosseum?

Looking for a place to eat lunch post tour (so 1p) with my teen. Short walk from the Colosseum is most ideal: thank you!

Do you mean after RS tour, or just touring the Colosseum on your own? RS guidebook recommends many places in Monti, just a short walk away.

On New Year’s Day everything was closed until we found a small cafe in Monti on Via Urbana, left side when going down this street.. It was a Halal place with the best vegetarian pizza. We sat outside at one of their tables

Trattoria Luzzi
Via di San Giovanni in Laterano 88 Colosseo

Ate there multiple times. It survived Covid. Low key and not touristy. Pizza, pasta, etc.

Trattoria Luzzi was SO good — really excellent, reasonably priced and very convenient to the Colleseum. Thank you so much!

Just returned from Rome over Easter. We ate lunch at Trattoria Luzzi after our Colosseum tour. You must book a reservation!
