Go Italian at Trattoria Belle Gente

Also worth considering are the specialties, like the Zuppa di Pesce (linguini with seafood), Vitello alla Milanese (breaded and sautéed veal) and Pollo Valdostana (a chicken breast stuffed with fontina and prosciutto). There are plenty of vegetarian options like Penne Bella Gente (tomatoes, zucchini and basil) or the generously sized Cesare salad.
