"No frills tavern perfect for a lunch or dinner of tasty Italian comfort food, with a daily menu turistico featuring classics such Spaghetti Vongole. Tends to be touristy, of course, but good value all the same."

Ellie Swinton

"Spaghetti alla vongole is one of the dreamiest, heart-warming dishes you’re likely to come across and luckily for me, it’s pretty much on tap throughout Italy. A very safe bet if you love clams, and the white wine sauce with garlic and parsley make for a delectable flavour combination."

Paulette Licitra

"Taverna San Trovaso is always reliable with a varied menu of delicious. The ambiance hugs you with warmth and character and the staff, sometimes aloof, can always be coaxed to smile and join in with your enthusiasm. Favs here: Spaghetti alle Vongole."

Kathy Ayer

"The first time we went my brother and I shared the Spaghetti alle Vongole (spaghetti with clams) for our primi piatti (first course). We both love seafood and thought this was the best spaghetti with clams we’ve ever had."

Durant Imboden

"It would be a shame to pass up the San Trovaso's excellent frittura mista di pesce (fried seafood platter)."

Kathy Ayer

"The Frittura Mista (mixed fried of seafood) is exceptional."
