Fodor's Review:

Sheltered from the city's hustle and bustle, this elegant little eatery exudes a mood of relaxed sophistication. Classic dishes such as risotto alla marinara(with seafood) are competently prepared, the grilled fish is extremely fresh, and the service is informal and friendly. The modest room has simple white walls—you're not paying for a view.

This restaurant is located in a very lovely small piazza thus the name La Piazzetta. You are welcomed in by one of the family which consists of 2 sisters, their husbands or the children during tourist season. The food is awesome. We had timbaletti di zucchini as an appetizer, risotto di limone and a huge fish covered with lemon slices then coated in salt and baked to perfection. It is brought to the table with a flaming blowhole looking like a whale.
I recommend this place to all my friends.
