Check out the eye-popping art by Belgian artist Sandra Knuyt that colors the restaurant walls.

Description:

• This restaurant packs in the crowds, especially on weekends. It's one of the city's more popular Italian eateries that churn out authentic, rustic dishes from the North and South. Flavors are traditional and unpretentious; try staples such as ossobucco, pastas, lasagna, pizzas prepared in an open-air oven and delicious dolci. Meat dishes reflect the northern region's recipes while seafood leans towards a more Sicilian cooking style. The wine list has a great variety of reds, whites, proseccos, and champagnes. With so much choice for Italian food in the city, Nero Vivo still manages to retain a loyal following. Nero Vivo is located in a refurbished colonial bungalow. Don't be deceived by its sleek interior, Nero Vivo is truly a friendly tratorria.
