The fresh pasta dishes are always excellent, as are the various tarts and pastries. Be sure to grab a canoli or two for 'take-away'. Since you're in the neighborhood, be sure to check out Esselunga, a MUST see for any tourist interested in looking at Italian culture beyond the tourist scene in centro. Great place to stock up on food and supplies/gifts while experiencing the anarchy that is grocery shopping in Italy.

The staff were so sweet ! After telling them about a nut allergy I had they made me a special plate, which was really nice of them. That being said ... to other nut allergy people, be careful because a lot of their sweets have tree nuts, so always ask! Anyway, not only are their cakes great they are open really late, until midnight. I love finding places that are open late that offer Wifi! I will definitely be frequenting this spot often.

I will come again to give it another try in the evening, for an after dinner dessert!
