The three of us had dinner on the evening of Thursday, August 21st (it was stormy outside).
A lovely, intimate restaurant in the lower part of Portoferraio (right by the port) with well-appointed decor. We ordered different dishes, and the meat in all of them was top-quality (I specifically ordered the Sienese beef asado, and I dare say it's the best meat I've ever eaten), and the food was beautifully presented.
Excellent service, with very friendly waiters and owners. I mentioned that I'm celiac, and they even brought me gluten-free bread separately (I appreciated that it was still sealed). The restaurant was quite busy, so I recommend booking in advance, as we did. The quality/price ratio was more than fair.
The owner was very kind and, given the weather, suggested we wait for a slight rain shower to stop before going to the car (it was almost midnight, everyone was leaving and they were closing up shop). She also advised us on the best route back to the hotel without passing through the lower part of Portoferraio, which floods easily (these were the days of the orange alert, and just the days before, there had been several floods and closures).
The only thing I'd like to point out: they have a beautiful dog inside the restaurant who stays tied up near the kitchen and is very calm and sociable (except that night when it thundered, she barked, and that's fine, poor thing). I don't know if it was just for that night or not. I'm mentioning it anyway, because someone might be afraid of her, but just ask to be in the other room.

Truly excellent charcuterie platter, with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The meat was a pleasant surprise: tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere was welcoming and the staff were friendly. I really don't understand the negative reviews; I had a great time and will definitely be back!

What a wonderful place this is.
High quality, impeccable service, perfect timing, fair prices.
They also have a very interesting and varied wine cellar, but the most beautiful thing is the decor.
This place is alive, it has an identity, you can really tell whoever decorated it loves it, you can feel the love.

Lunch as a couple, nothing to complain about either the service or the restaurant. As a celiac, however, I was only able to choose a few dishes from the already limited lunch menu. I didn't like the dish, and the packaged, unsatisfactory bread doesn't justify the above-average price.
Edit after the restaurant's response: Given the response and my lack of understanding of the text, I confirm my feeling that it's best not to return...
