Food Scene

This is our favorite Italian restaurant in the neighborhood! Only a 5 min walk from the apartment, in what used to be an old fashioned pharmacy, they serve homemade pasta, many other delicious Tuscan Italian dishes, and they even make their own digestifs.

This is a delicious wood burning oven pizza spot! They often have a wait, so if you have some time to kill, you can grab a drink at Hop Hill about half a block away that has a full bar, but is most known for their large beer selection.
