Fodor's Expert Review Locanda del Cerriglio

Centro Storico
Lunch
The city's most historic eatery is said to have first opened in the 13th century, and the story goes that Caravaggio was brutally attacked here in 1609 after dining at the inn. Today the basement still maintains a fountain from the original structure, and the menu itself also retains certain flavors of the past. Try the 17th-century dish ziti spezzati alla genovese (a meat and onion pasta), which is considered a local specialty.
