About
The charm of this place lies in its well-managed simplicity, the genuinely friendly welcome from the staff at the bar near the entrance, and the flavorful cuisine. Outdoor tables fill part of the quiet street during nice weather; otherwise, you can dine in a high-ceilinged, vaulted dining room that manages to stay cool even on hot days. The Di Dio family, well versed in welcoming diners from the English-speaking world, prepares dishes that include delectable risotto, salads, and succulent spaghetti with squid, cuttlefish, shrimp, and tomatoes.
