Taverna del Bronzino

Between Piazza Indipendenza and San Marco Cuisines: Italian, European

About

The 1580 house where Santi di Tito spent the last years of his life painting is now inhabited by polite, efficient, and very accommodating waiters who will show you to a table in the vaulted-ceiling dining room or on the arbor-shaded patio. Among the delectable antipasti are salmone Scozzese selvatica (wild Scottish salmon) and petto d'oca affumicato e carciofi (thin slices of smoked goose breast on a bed of sliced artichokes drowned in olive oil). The risotto agli asparagi is a bit light on the asparagus but still very creamy and tasty. You can also try the excellent ravioli alla Senese (ricotta and spinach-stuffed pasta in creamy tomato sauce) or tagliolini ai pesci (noodles with fish). To stick with the sea you can order branzino (sea bass simmered in white wine) next or select the paillard di vitella all'ortolana (a grilled veal steak wrapped around cooked vegetables).
