My best Italian place in the area, on 4th Avenue, Parkhurst. If you have some time it’s well worth a visit and a walk up and down 4th avenue

A must see if you’re visiting on the first Sunday of the month. Take an Uber as parking is a problem. Mix of talented artists and artisans displaying their goods. Craft beer and wine. Organic fruit and veg. Great fish & chips.
