Ristorante del Sole

Perugia


Dine at Il Sole and you'll be reminiscing about the engrossing views as much as the food. Taking in Perugia's rooftops and the verdant hills beyond, they set a memorable backdrop for regional fare such as pappardelle al ragù di cinghiale (pasta with wild-boar sauce) and the occasional international imposter (Cantabrian anchovies, gnocchi in Norwegian lobster cream, chicken curry).

Upstairs, the same folks run Living Cafè, a top sundowner spot.
