A happening place just steps from beautiful public spaces and historic buildings. The piazza del Ponte Russo, the Ponte Curto, two palazzos(Carciotti and Gopcevich), the Sant’Antonio Nuovo and the Serb — Orthodox Temple of Holy Trinity and Saint Spyridon churches are all worth a stroll. Stop in for a bite to rest your feet and people-watch. Two floors, a big screen TV, nice lounging areas for small groups, and a popular outdoor seating area. The indoor seating was clean, attractive and recently upholstered. Don’t think of sitting outdoors unless you’re a smoker too. Our server was super hospitable and found us something to eat even though we had arrived prior to dinner time(7:30 pm). Apparently only drinking occurs in the late afternoon in Trieste, because we couldn’t find any downtown restaurants serving dinner at the time most Americans want to eat their evening meal.
