Cigno Nero restaurant and pizzeria, located in Bientina (PI), is a hidden gem offering an unparalleled culinary and ambiance experience. Owner Caterina deserves the highest praise for her exceptional attention to customer needs, ensuring every guest feels welcomed and fully satisfied.
The establishment itself is a small paradise: nestled in a cool and enchanting setting, enhanced by a lake populated by fish and aquatic turtles, charming fountains, and surrounded by animals such as goats, ducks, swans, and guinea pigs. This natural setting offers a relaxing and charming atmosphere, ideal for families thanks also to the children's play area.
The tranquil setting is made even more pleasant by the availability of ample parking and the beauty of the surrounding trees, which help create an oasis of serenity away from the chaos of everyday life.
With the arrival of summer 2025, Cigno Nero has refreshed its menu with truly interesting seasonal offerings. Among the new dishes not to be missed:
Seafood tartare trio for 4 (€28), incredibly fresh and beautifully presented.
Beef tartare for 2 (€18), balanced and tasty.
Gnocco for 6 (€28) with three irresistible variations: Pisan mucco ragù, aglione and cherry tomatoes, and the surprising "tabaccolara" with herb pesto.
Sliced steak with grilled vegetables for 4 (€30), ideal for meat lovers.
Fried seafood for 4 (€22), light and crispy.
For pizza lovers, the pizza round for 6 (€20) offers a mix of classic Margherita, Napoli, ham and mushrooms, served on rustic boards.
Service remains a strong point: helpful, friendly, and always attentive waiters. The food continues to be good quality, with generous portions and fair prices, especially considering the portions designed for groups.
In conclusion, Cigno Nero is not just a restaurant, but a complete experience that combines excellent food, warm service, and a charming atmosphere. Caterina and her team manage to create a place where every visit becomes a pleasant memory.
Highly recommended, especially for this summer of 2025!

Good food, but table service could be improved. There's ample outdoor space with lots of greenery.

On a very hot evening, a pizza with friends that was needed!
We ate outside, the waiter welcomed us with a smile, very very kind throughout the evening. We ate a small appetizer with fried pasta and fried polenta, waiting for the pizzas (EXCELLENT) Rustic dough, nice and large and very seasoned! Spoiler, that night we didn't have to get up to drink😄 The owner at the end of the dinner, offered us limoncello!
We will definitely be back

Not the best evening but for this very reason they deserve a positive review. We arrived late, with almost all the tables occupied, they let us sit down and take our order. The service is slow and we are late, but the quality of the food is still good. When we got to the cash register, the owner herself, without asking anything, apologized for the wait and gave us a discount. Never happened before, of her own free will without complaints...we will return and recommend it, for he it was clear that it was an episode but that they care about their work: chaleau!

Amable servicio multilingüe (italiano y francés) que también fue rápido. A pesar de la gran fiesta de cumpleaños , otros grupos y el hecho de que no habíamos reservado una mesa - nos nombraron lugar tranquilo perfecto.
Todos nuestros platos eran de alta calidad y muy sabroso - incluso el pequeño de la familia estaba comiendo muy bien y con placer.
Jardín exterior es simplemente maravilloso con camino bordeado de rosas.
¡Domingo muy relajante!

Ho avuto occasione di cenare diverse volte presso il Cigno Nero e ci tengo a condividere in questa recensione la qualità indiscutibile sia delle materie prime che della cucina. Piatti di pesce ottimi ben cucinati e nei quali si percepisce una grande attenzione nella scelta della materia prima (consiglio fantasia di antipasti, fritture, gamberoni). Sui piatti di terra antipasti con affettati di prima scelta, fantasia e accuratezza nella scelta e primi buonissimi. Un capitolo a parte per le pizze veramente buone sia in un impasto ben lievitato sia nella farcitura con tantissime alternative e ingredienti sempre di prima qualità. Completa il tutto il rapporto qualità prezzo veramente vincente. Vi consiglio davvero di provare questo locale, bellissimo anche in estate per gli spazi aperti.
