Eating in San Vito di Cadore means mountain cooking: polenta, mushroom and game dishes, hearty soups, and the cured meats of the Veneto highlands. The local rifugi are as much a part of the food scene as the village restaurants — a plate of pasta at a mountain hut after a long walk is one of the great pleasures of the Dolomites.
The village has a handful of restaurants and pizzerias clustered around the main square and along the central street. Prices are reasonable by Dolomite standards, noticeably lower than Cortina. In summer, most establishments take a weekly rest day; it is worth calling ahead out of peak season.
