12/01/2026: Attracted by the rave reviews, I wanted to try it, and I can say that... yes, it's a nice, well-kept place. The service was very sketchy, if not poor, with zero professionalism. I won't go into detail because I don't want to be harsh. I'll just mention the owner and the tall, pale-eyed waiter. The food was so-so... I hear talk of tradition, absolute goodness, but I didn't find any of that. The first courses were good, except for the farinata, which arrived cold. Otherwise, nothing special. The price was, let's say, acceptable.
I won't be back, much less recommending it to friends and acquaintances.
08/01/2026: For Christmas, my sister gave me a gift card that included a dinner for two, including:
welcome aperitif
first course
second course
dessert and coffee, obviously excluding drinks. A very beautiful place with an elegant, vintage touch. We were greeted with professionalism and kindness by all the staff. Despite having lived in Lucca since birth, I had never been to this restaurant, a huge mistake, given the quality and deliciousness of the dishes. A risotto lover, I was literally captivated by the pumpkin risotto with biscuit crumble, absolutely the best risotto I've ever eaten. The tagliatelle with cod in a stew were also delicious. For the main course, a slice of amberjack with cabbage, good but bland. I would have preferred something more flavorful, and rovelline with mashed potatoes, a typical dish. For dessert, caramelized fruit with vanilla ice cream, definitely not my favorite dessert, and cheesecake with berry sauce, delicious and creamy. Of course, we opted for a small bottle of wine, since I'm teetotal.
In short, we had a wonderful time throughout. I thank the wait staff who, with extreme kindness and courtesy, accompanied our dinner. A restaurant worth visiting at least once.
