Terrazze di Properzio

Assisi


As much as the food, the big draw here is the al fresco terrace and its heavenly views – the green valley below Assisi spreads picturesquely before you. These, combined with the earthy Umbrian cuisine, have made the restaurant popular with tourists and you can expect competition for the best tables.
