Eatwith Janice & Francesca has been like dining at a friend's house! They payed attention to each detail, so that we all were feeling comfortable in their house and with other guests. We ate in a wide saloon with a long table, listening to Italian music and chatting all the evening. The food was absolutely delicious, Italian granny style, especially gnocchi! If you're looking to dine in a friendly and fun atmosphere, this is the place!
