Description

A really appealing restaurant in a great location! The upscale, modern and elegant interior is a delightful setting in which to enjoy the fresh Mediterranean cuisine. With clear Italian influences, an interesting three-course set menu is served at lunchtime; in the evening, a larger set menu is proposed, along with a selection of delicious à la carte options. Be sure to try the antipasti! The service is friendly and professional. Tip: In summer, there are also a few tables on the pavement in front of the building. Between the restaurant and the cookery school, Paola's is a bar-cum-deli – ideal
