This quality restaurant at a former monastery perched on a hill 2.5km from town offers sublime views of the surrounding plain from its terrace, and a characterful vaulted interior space. It's run by a friendly young couple who offer delicious, sophisticated cuisine. They'll usually open for dinner bookings, so call ahead.
