Via Nazionale was the first major street in the city and was created as a link between the main train station and the city center. It is 10 minutes from the Spanish Steps and next to the Rome Opera house. The Quirinale has played host to Royalty and world leaders in its 150+ year history. This menu, from 1890, is in French as was the custom of the time. Even in Rome.
