This understated pizza and pasta joint is a real hot spot for locals craving wood-fired pizza. The sparsely topped, crisp-based pizzas are so authentic they feature imported Neapolitan flour and San Marzano tomatoes. Bookings are essential, or you can grab a takeaway from the window and eat on the beach. After your meal, hit their delicious gelateria, Popolo, opposite.
