One train stop north of the Vatican is Nuraghe Sardo, a little Sardinian restaurant with a big heart and a hearty table. Join Italian families on a weekend afternoon or evening for a repast from the sunny (and now tourist swarmed) Sardinia. Make sure you save room for the traditional Sardinian dessert, a deep fried dough pocket filled with sweetened cheese custard and drizzled with honey, accompanied by the best coffee I had in Roma.
