On a narrow vicolo off beloved Piazza del Fico, this multidimensional locale opened last year, serving as caffè by day, becoming a hot spot by aperitivo hour. Beautifully finished with vaulted wood beam ceilings, wrought-iron touches, plush leather sofas, and chandeliers, it's all modern Italian farmhouse chic. In the restaurant section (the place is sprawling), it's minimalist Provençal hip (etabli is French for the regionally typical tables within). And the food is clean and Mediterranean, with touches of Asia in the raw fish appetizers. Pastas are more traditional Italian, and the secondi run the gamut from land to sea. Arrive early as the place fills up by dinnertime and it's a popular post-dining spot for sipping and posing.
