Veranda F-2, Kęstučio 39, tel. (+370) 5 273 01 07. Another
Žvėrynas classic, Veranda is a great place to eat in, to have too
many beers with a friend in or to take a fussy elderly relative to.
The international and Lithuanian food is surprisingly good plus
there’s a superb selection of booze including Guinness, Leffe and
draught Bernard. There’s live music several evenings a week, and
out the back is a large garden complete with barbecue for splendidly
lazy Sunday summer afternoons. QOpen 11:00 - 24:00,

Zoe’s Bar & Grill B-2, Odminių 3, tel. (+370) 5
212 33 31, www.zoesbargrill.com. Although by no
means extravagant, you get what you pay for, which here
is quality food prepared in an open kitchen and served
by waiting staff genuinely happy to see you. The décor
has an upmarket-diner feel to it, plus there are a couple
of excellent beers to compliment the food. Consistently
great, which is a very rare thing indeed in this city. Recommended.

Italian
Da Antonio B-2, Vilniaus 23, tel. (+370) 5 262 01 09,
www.antonio.lt. An old favourite with several embassies in
town, Da Antonio is everything an Italian restaurant should
be. Classy without any unnecessary frills and with superb
people-watching windows at the front, native Italian chef
Manfredo Molteni oversees a menu including fresh fish soup,
grilled beef fillet and a wealth of great pasta dishes for meat
eaters and vegetarians alike. There’s a great choice of Italian
wines to compliment plus some truly gut-busting desserts
for those who can cram a little more in. Also at L. Stuokos-
Gucevičiaus 1 (Amberton Hotel), Vilniaus 6/16. QOpen
11:00 - 23:00, Sat 12:00 - 23:00, Sun 12:00 - 19:00. 50Lt.

Fiorentino C-3, Universiteto 4, tel. (+370) 5 212 09
25, www.fiorentino.lt. A good choice of Tuscan dishes
with accompanying Tuscan wine, all overseen by an Italian
from the region with the kind of passion sadly almost never
seen in the city. Inside it’s all plain white interiors and specials
chalked on the blackboard, whilst the warmer months add
a magnificent 16th-century Renaissance courtyard into the
bargain. Tuscany is of course considered the birthplace of
the Renaissance, so it’s rather fitting that the restaurant
should be here. Brilliant stuff. QOpen 11:30 - 22:00, Fri
11:30 - 23:00, Sat 12:00 - 23:00, Sun 12:00 - 22:00. 30Lt.

Osteria da Luca B-4, Trakų 11/2, tel. (+370) 679 594
20. Not your typical Italian restaurant, Osteria da Luca opts
for a more nouvelle cuisine approach to its cooking and does
it surprisingly well. Situated inside a fine Old Town building
with a snazzy dining area at ground level and an atmospheric
cellar, there’s also the option during the summer on its small
outdoor terrace opposite the fine Franciscan Church. We
were particularly impressed with the fresh pasta, although
there’s plenty more on offer besides but be warned that this
is nouvelle cuisine, meaning most of the things on the menu
aren’t going to fill you up. QOpen 11:00 - 24:00, Sat 12:00 -
24:00. Closed Sun. 25 Lt. PABSW
