Before curtain-up.

Teatro dell’Opera di Roma is on Piazza Beniamino Gigli, near Via Nazionale. On OpenStreetMap’s walking route, from there to Via Marghera 37 is about 930 metres: through Piazza dei Cinquecento and Termini Station to the Via Marsala exit.

For dinner before a performance an early time works best: La Lupa’s kitchen is open without a break from the afternoon, so you can book for 6 or 6:30 pm and reach the theatre calmly. After the show the kitchen closes at 23:00: if you plan to come afterwards, call +39 06 8692 8542 first.

More sights on foot from here, with distances, times and two loops: things to see near Termini Station.

Unhurried, but on time.

A Roman pasta and a main are enough to arrive at the theatre satisfied but light: cacio e pepe or carbonara, then saltimbocca. Put the show time in the booking notes: it helps the staff plan.
