We ate at this restaurant several nights ago and enjoyed it but only partly. First the positive aspects: the place itself is small and cozy, the service was impeccable and friendly, the wine (a rosato from Molise) was splendid. The appetizers were absolutely wonderful. I had the raw antipasti platter which was fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. My husband had the cooked antipasti which were inventive and served in two sequences of three, 6 delectable dishes in all.

The other antipasti and the other dishes I didn’t mange to take photos because I had a little baby to calm haha Hope you will have the same experience I had. Note: all the pasta we tried were...
Read moreUnbelievable quality. I’ve been to many restaurants now in this quaint town and while all of course boast of fresh produce, L’Opera is the first that takes the same ingredients and pushes them to their limits.
Each dish is creative and hearty. I had the gnoccheti with zucchini, the egg pasta with saffron and shrimp tartare, and the grilled octopus. Every single dish was perfectly cooked, generously portioned, and delicious.
The ambience is also so refined. The coral marble walls, the chic plush chairs, the clean and spacious bathrooms, the unobtrusive yet attentive service. Finally, a beautiful modern...
