(PRESS RELEASE) ROME, 2025-Jun-23 — /Travel PR News/ — A few months after celebrating its two-year milestone, INEO—located within the opulent Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel—has earned a coveted spot in the Michelin Guide’s latest selections for June. This accolade affirms the restaurant’s unwavering commitment to culinary excellence and forward-looking vision. Under the creative direction of Executive Chef Heros De Agostinis, INEO offers a gastronomic journey that fuses Italian heartiness with global inspirations, showcasing a menu defined by technique, innovation, and deep respect for ingredients.

Chef De Agostinis’s cooking marries Italy’s finest produce with an array of exotic flavors, employing spices, fermentations, and methods drawn from Eritrea, Asia, and South America. His career spans over a quarter-century in renowned Michelin-starred kitchens, and his approach is at once refined, evocative, and contemporary. “This recognition from the Michelin Guide fills me with pride,” says De Agostinis. “It honors the collective effort of my brigade and the front-of-house team. At INEO, every plate tells a story—each creation is born from a memory, a journey, a feeling we wish to convey.”

Standout offerings that exemplify INEO’s ethos include the Maccheroncini al ferretto glazed in a Madeira reduction, served with a deeply aromatic Eritrean ragout and shards of 24-month-aged Parmigiano. This signature dish weaves together personal reminiscence and culinary craft, symbolizing a bridge between African heritage and Italian tradition. Set within an intimate dining room of just 28 seats, INEO’s impeccable service is overseen by restaurant manager Damiano Verdone, while sommelier Federico Spagnolo curates an exceptional wine cellar of over 900 labels. Together, they elevate INEO to one of Rome’s most sophisticated fine dining destinations.
