La Pieve is, we think, the name of our neighborhood. Not sure how cities, states, or communities work but Pieve is about halfway up our mountain where we shop at Lilia’s and discovered this restaurant. Though reviews were mixed, it allowed us to dine out and get back up the mountain before dark. It turned out to have great service and food and their own, very delicious wine. One negative review was regarding the struggle to understand the menu, which had English descriptions , and we had two English speaking servers. We were reminded not to put too much stock in reviews. It must have been our night. We watched the sun sink behind the mountain as we arrived at our door.

Before this, I was considering becoming a vegetarian. Not any more.
