Antica Norcineria Orsi In Pistoia

09/08/2025: Nice motorcycle ride with friends and great food

30/07/2025: A pleasant evening enjoying the light and colors of the sunset. We arrived for dinner and sat at one of the perimeter tables overlooking the lake. We were able to admire the sun setting over the mountains and the lake taking on color. The restaurant is well-known in the area, and a colleague from the office recommended it to me. The fish was excellent: fresh, well-cooked, and creatively plated. We enjoyed an appetizer of octopus and potato salad, with a drizzle of mayonnaise and sauces. My wife chose a first course, and I chose a mixed grill of fish. Both the seafood calamarata and my grill were both delicious. We paired them with a couple of glasses of local white wine, "Erbaluce di Caluso." Coffee, no dessert. The price was average for the medium-high quality of the dishes (€80). This place is definitely worth a try if you're looking for a quiet and very romantic spot. Option to stroll after dinner along the beautiful lakeside promenade. I returned a year later during a lunch break with a client; the heat of this 2025 summer was not bothersome in the shade of the trees. I confirm last year's excellent rating and include photos of what we ate today: the chef's mixed antipasto and tagliatelle with lobster. Excellent dishes, well prepared and beautifully presented.
