Fodor's Review:

Reserve a table on the enclosed veranda or outside on the patio for tremendous views of the mountains at this restored farmstead house. The menu is a pricey and harmonious blend of northern Italian and Provençal cuisines. Many diners start with homemade pasta or fish carpaccio (served with nori and a rice cube). They may then move on to such main courses as line fish served on mashed sweet potato with baby spinach and a verjuice (gentle grape astringent) vinaigrette, or the classic trippa alla Fiorentina (tripe braised in tomato, carrot, and celery sauce). The marquise au chocolat is calorific splendor: dark-chocolate mousse in a spider-web pool of crème anglaise.

Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
