Multilingual tourist menus proliferate in the town's restaurants , and prices can be steep. For straight pizzas there's Il Pozzo Romano in Via Sant'Agnese (closed Thurs), near Santa Chiara, and the superb I Monaci , Scaletti del Metastasio, whose entrance is in a stepped alley off the north side of Via Fontebella, a few steps down from Piazzetta Garibaldi (closed Wed). The excellent Pallotta , Via San Rufino 4 (closed Tues), is near some sticky tourist traps but is an unpretentious and welcoming trattoria - arrive early for a table at lunch. Moving upmarket, La Fortezza , Vicolo della Fortezza 2 (reservations essential in summer, tel 075.812.418; closed Thurs & Feb), has great food but slightly slow service. Medioevo , Via dell'Arco dei Priori 4b (booking advised, tel 075.813.068; closed Wed, Jan & July 1-21), just south off the Piazza del Comune, is highly recommended for a splurge on some eclectic cuisine that draws its inspiration from France, Germany and Austria as well as Italy.
