Cabarete
Mediterranean
The tables at this tranquil Italian restaurant flank a night-lit pool, offering the kind of intimate, romantic setting tailor-made for a wedding proposal. The young Italian owners have embraced slow food, offering delicious antipastos, carpaccios, and tartares to start and excellent house-made pastas, including feather-light gnocchi and tender half-moons in a sage-and-butter sauce. Paired with a vibrant Tuscan red, this is the ideal meal. Perfect panna cotta is the kind of dessert you hope to find. End your evening with a mild grappa or Sambuca. The chic set come to dinner and may leave with a new painting under their arm—an adjacent room is an unexpected gallery.
