Little did we know our random stop found via Google reviews would be one of the best meals of our trip. Highly recommend the family at La Torre they were warm hospitable and offering recommendations. We had the Russian salad, Tajarin with veal ragu, gnocchi, lasagna. The host recommended the bicerin and oh my what a treat it was! Highly recommend stopping in and experiencing this wonderful place. My only disappointment is that we won’t able to visit again!

We had a lunch here which immediately limits the menu as the pizza oven is only lit for the evening and much of the seafood is unavailable as presumably they wait for today 's catch to arrive in time for evening service. A couple of us had the bresaola starter which was excellent, and the the rigatoni al Norma, which we imagined was the sauce made to Norma 's recipe, whoever she was. It was very tasty and the pasta was, as I have found it and come to prefer it, nicely al dente . Good value too at €55, admittedly with only sparkling water to drink. Very enjoyable.
