33 Giri opened in Borgo Pio with a chosen library of 2,500 vinyl records, a turntable pair and a precision sound system tuned by local audiophiles, programmed by DJ and producer Carlo Scordo with sisters Andrea, Michela and Federica Mercuri running the floor.
TipReservation required via [email protected]; the room is small and books a single seating per evening. The wine list leans toward small natural producers.
Mazzo reopened in San Lorenzo in 2023 as the second act of Francesca Barreca and Marco Baccanelli's Centocelle original, a listening trattoria with sound-absorbing panels, a wide vinyl rotation and a separate vineria bar that opens an hour before the dining room.
TipThe vineria opens at 18:00 with half plates and bar snacks, no reservation needed; the main room takes one seating per evening with bookings via the site. Wine list is short and natural-leaning.
Frisson moved to a Pigneto address in December 2025 for its fourth anniversary, running an all-day room that starts with bakery coffee, evolves into an aperitivo and turns into a listening bar after 19:00 with a selected DJ station, vinyl wall and a private courtyard.
TipDay-time bakery and coffee, evening aperitivo with chef Leopoldo Di Martino's small plates, then the listening room. The courtyard is the seat in summer.
