Montmartre
Next door to the Museum Leonardo da Vinci Ideale, the atmospheric Montmartre evokes a French bistro with its wine-red drapes, tasselled lampshades and oil paintings. The menu is a worldlier affair, with pizzas, Swedish favourites and zestier fusion numbers such as grilled tuna with wasabi, lime and chilli.

The glam new kid in town, this restaurant-bar combo has an enviable location on a fountain-studded square. While the chocolate wicker lounges and Café del Mar tunes make for a perfect vino session, ditch the overpriced, underwhelming mains for the more satisfying pizzas.
