Top choice in Livorno

Everything about this water-edge bistro is sassy, fresh and on trend. Plump for a place around one huge long shared table outside or enjoy the romance of a candlelit, vaulted red-brick interior. Furnishings are crafted from chipboard and the dining choice is simple: Chianina beef tartare, cheese and salami platters, or gourmet schiacciate (sandwiches) already assembled or served loose on a wooden board.

Every product is of the highest quality and a fantastic choice of wine (by the bottle or glass) and craft beer is the icing on the cake.
