Essenza Ristorante

A rustic-upscale place with stone cross-vault ceilings inside and tables right on the street outside, they focus heavily on seafood. That doesn't mean they don't make some nice stuffed pastas or an occasional ossobuco, and desserts are nice. They do sushi, that is much loved by the local regulars, but a few specialties include tortelloni stuffed with ricotta and shrimp and dusted with white truffles, or a rich seafood risotto.
