We had a wonderful experience at Dopolavoro La Foce, having eaten there once for lunch and once for a New Year’s brunch. Both visits were excellent — the food was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and full of flavor, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Wine list is great for both local and exciting international wines. The New Year’s brunch was especially memorable, beautifully done and relaxed, with great attention to detail. Friendly service and a lovely setting made both occasions truly enjoyable. Highly recommended!
