Inspired by the lively streets of Trastevere, Lele's Roman brings a fresh take on Roman cuisine to Ace Hotel Brooklyn this May. Led by Chef Francesco Battisti, the menu features Roman classics like Amatriciana, Cacio e Pepe, Puntarelle, and Carciofi, plus shareable pinsas and breakfast maritozzi. The beverage program highlights Italian classics, with a robust amaro selection and regional wines curated by Alessio de Sensi. Designed by Studio Tre, the space blends the building's brutalist character with '70s Italian funk, creating a playful yet sophisticated dining experience by LDV Hospitality.

β€œFood was absolutely fantastic, fresh ingredients, entrees were super hot, straight from oven- just how I like it. We chose restaurant week menu-- burrata salad with beets and blood oranges- absolutely a star, Caccio e Pepe and eggplant parm-- outstanding and their desserts were light and tasty. Thank you for good quality ingredients and attention to details.”

β€œWe had a great dinner tonight at Lele's Roman. I've had my eye on trying it out for months, and I'm glad I did! The atmosphere was charming, decor gorgeous, service excellent, and, most importantly, the food was superb. We tried the: POLIPO E PATATE MORTADELLA E STRACCIATELLA TONNARELLI CACIO E PEPE SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA Everything was lovely. Excited to explore more of their menu next time!”

β€œThis restaurant has alot of charm and if I lived nearby I'd make it a regular go to. Is it worth coming from Manhattan for? Yes and no. The happy hour is great. $10 glasses of good wine. $14 martinis. A $7 happy hour charcuterie plate was also a nice nibble with the happy hour drinks . The arugula salad was delicious as was the eggplant parmesan. Very good tiramisu. But is it on the level of the finest Italians in nyc. Not quite. It's good and I would return. But it's not Da Toscano or Via Carota. BTW the waiters are true Italians and quite charming. It's also a good pre Barclay spot.”
