Now a gastronomic institution in the city, in a secluded setting immersed in nature, La Pineta occupies the ground floor of a nondescript building in which the simple, “dated” yet comfortable decor provides the backdrop. Although there is a food menu (but no wine list), the owners usually announce the dishes on offer in person. Simple, traditional and abundant cuisine which is mainly cooked on the open grill in the centre of the room, including meat (its signature speciality) and fish.
