Campo de' Fiori- dinner time

The Campo at dinner time can seem like somewhat of a magical place. On a night where there weather is pleasant, when patron dine outside and eat on tables that wobble because of the cobblestone. As the sun goes down, the Campo becomes lit up. If you are lucky, a strolling violin player will come by to serenade you during your meal. When a starts playing, a waiter will come over and listen for a minute. If he is good enough, the waiter will simply walk away. If he doesn’t pass the test, the waiter will send him on his merry way. The one downside to dining at the Campo is the food itself. Overpriced, and often times not all that good, food at the Campo is nothing special. Many places offer a limited selection tourist menu. If it is atmosphere you are looking for, you will enjoy the Campo. If you are looking for an affordable, authentic dining experience, please try to look elsewhere.
