A petite streetside patio features dining atop wine barrels.

A wide array of thin-crust pizzas pulled from a traditional brick oven, freshly made pastas (don't miss the four cheese lasagna), and salads are the ticket here, along with flame-roasted lemon chicken wings (mild, spicy, or atomic). Dairy-free cheese and gluten-free crusts are available.

Pizza AND frozen yogurt? Brothers and business partners Pierre and Sebastien Lauga, along with Boulangerie restaurateur Pascal Rigo and Utah's Central Milling, stepped in as owners at the frozen yogurt shop Loving Cup in Greenbrae's Bon Air Center, adding pizza to the menu.
