Endless aisles of fresh produce, handmade pastas, seasonal dishes from a wood-fired grill and hard-to-find regional specialties turn the Prudential Center into a celebration of all things Italy. Head for the market for sustainable meat and seafood from their expert butchers and fishmongers; artisan salumi and formaggi, including five kinds of DOP prosciutti; fresh-baked bread made with yeast from Piemonte and more. Four restaurants, plus 10 counters and carts, let you taste your way through the 20 regions of Italy, too. Grab a sandwich on the go from I Panini, a slice of Roman-style pizza from Pizza alla Pala or a cannolo filled and customized just for you from the Cannoli Cart.
For sit-down dining, head to La Piazza for the best-of-the-best of the daily market finds, from fresh oysters to shared plates of meats and cheeses. At La Pizza & La Pasta, you can work your way through five preparations of traditional Roman carbonara, paired with a selection of mineral-forward wines that cut through the dish’s signature richness. Seasonal ingredients are celebrated at La Terra, too, where a wood-burning grill turns out seafood, steaks and a selection of Pugliese-style skewers made for sharing.
Events like “Roman Night,” where expert chefs guide you through a tasting inspired by the city, along with cooking and wine education classes, help you make the most of Eataly’s expansive selection of food and wine.
