The story
Tucked into Rome’s Garbatella neighborhood, Tiella e Panzerotti is a no-fuss Pugliese outpost run by Tiziana, a native of Margherita di Savoia. As creator Pratt notes, it’s “a fantastic Pugliese spot” serving handmade panzerotti, pucce, scagliozze, and the namesake tiella barese—all at genuinely approachable prices. The vibe is casual, takeout-friendly, and rooted in the kind of regional pride that makes a local favorite.
The menu reads like a Puglian street-food greatest hits. Panzerotto arrives golden and crisp, while the Puccia con Capocollo showcases cured meat at its best. Scagliozze offer a satisfyingly crunchy fried bite, and the Tiella Barese—layered rice, potatoes, and mussels—is the star. It’s the sort of spot that rewards curiosity, serving simple, executed-with-care dishes that feel like a direct line to the heel of Italy’s boot.

The panzerotti here are great — the dough is neither too greasy nor too dry. They range from the classic ones at €3.40 to the special ones at €9. Everything you see on this table, from panzerotti to pucce, is handmade by Tiziana and her niece Loredana.
Puccia con Capocollo
The puccia with capocollo is amazing — this stuff makes you want to lift a couch. The pucce range from €6 to €10, so you don't have to spend too much. But if you're a glutton like me, you'll want to try everything, even the scagliozze.
Scagliozze
The scagliozze are fried polenta pieces at €3 each. They're a great addition if you want to try more stuff.
Tiella Barese
The tiella barese is a tray of rice, potatoes and mussels. For €2.50 we got a piece of paradise — crunchy and soft at the same time. It's a slice of heaven that came down to earth.
