Girasole

One diner who chose roast lamb to finish a course meal remembers both the balsamic sauce and the whole roasted garlic served alongside it. For a dinner centred on a leisurely main course, the set-course option at Girasole may appeal. It moves from an appetiser platter and pasta to a choice of several mains. Another diner, visiting for dinner, enjoyed a starter selection that included pâté, quiche and carpaccio, followed by fettuccine with aubergine, tomato sauce and cheese. This progression from starters to main course also suits a meal built around a glass of wine.

There are also reports of seasonal ingredients featuring in the lunchtime pasta course. One lunch included pasta with cabbage and prawns; another diner enjoyed a seasonal salad, starters and pasta. The menu also lists peperoncino with nanohana (rapeseed blossoms) and shirasu (whitebait), though dishes may change, so it is worth looking forward to whatever is on offer that day. Diners have mentioned receiving wine suggestions to match their food, and one enjoyed Moldovan wine. With a wide selection of wines on offer, asking for a recommendation after choosing a dish is one way to enjoy a meal here.

Dogs are welcome indoors, and diners have reported eating inside with their dogs. This makes Girasole an option if you would like to bring your dog along. Lunch is served from 12:00 to 15:00, and dinner from 17:00 to 22:00. The restaurant is closed on Mondays.
