Chan Chan
Run by Italian chef Udo, this Italian eatery has a cozy atmosphere and lots of bright, white, curving adobe walls smartly decorated with tasteful art. The food here is great, the pizzas look like the real, thin-crust deal and the service is very attentive – it’s well worth the splurge. Get here early for a breezy patio seat. To find it, look out for the palm-frond-concealed frontage.

Restaurant Demarco
Although this small bistro specializes in Italian food and crispy crust pizzas – if you read Italian, so much the better for deciphering the extensive menu – they have mouth-watering chupe de camarones, a seafood stew of jumbo shrimp simmering in a buttery broth with hints of garlic, cumin and oregano. The desserts are excellent, from classic tiramisu to mile-high tres leches (a spongy cake made with evaporated milk).

Trattoria San Seferino
Yet another Italian eating place, this time a trattoria specializing in hearty country fare. Bife de chorizo - similar to a New York strip steak, but bigger - is popular, as is the unusual dishes of potted duck and green risotto with homemade pesto.

La Glorietta
Just off the Diagonal, the tiny Pasaje Juan Figari – nicknamed Pizza Street – is cluttered with pizzerias, each of which look and taste much like the other. La Glorietta is one of the better joints, with decent pies laden with fresh garlic.

Punto Italiano
Italian cuisine with a Sardinian twist is dished up at this homey trattoria. The handmade ravioli are locally renowned while the carne tagliata (veal with tagliatelle) with Sardinian cheese is divine.
