A lunch after a last minute reservation...
The vehicle is parked at the “Palatucci” paid parking lot and then a short 5-minute walk passing through the “San Donato” city gate.
Another possibility for the vehicle is to park inside the walls of the Medieval town right next to the Restaurant.
We are greeted by several servers who lead us to our table...
Sarah is the first name of the person who will take care of us....The meal begins very well with a series of appetizing starters....then the dishes follow one another with great harmony of tastes and well-established timing. ..
The service is provided by Sarah who demonstrates great professional ability and we are grateful to her...
Our lunch:
Multiple entries from Tuscany
Tordelli with “meat ragu” (very good)
Veal cheek on a bed of potato in mustard sauce (superlative! a delicacy never before tasted)
The meal was enhanced by an exquisite dessert (castagnaccio with Ricotta) made with chestnut flour in the oldest peasant tradition in Tuscany...
In conclusion:
a magnificent experience to relive soon, I hope....
We would like to spend one more bill in favor of the table service provided by "Sarah".
We benefited from his professional attention throughout our excellent meal....Thank you.

Ottimo locale con cibo genuino del posto e piatti antichi. Menù molto vasto con piatti del giorno. Servizio ottimo, come ottima l’accoglienza dei clienti. Eravamo in 14 con tantissimi piatti diversi arrivati sempre insieme caldi e ben cucinati. Dietro le quinte ci deve essere una cucina ‘da guerra’.
Prezzi contenuti.

I ate really well, in particular I really liked the cod with leeks, the various legume soups are to be recommended for the first courses. The only thing that was jarring was the high level of noise I found in the room, soundproofing would be needed. I will definitely return with friends.

Traditional Lucca cuisine dishes without concessions to reinterpretations.
Unfortunately too crowded, with an excessive number of tables so close together that it is impossible to converse in a normal tone. Sin.
The place has lost its character even if the dishes have not changed

all very good, friendly and professional staff, a little noisy inside when it's full, which is always! :-)

Passing through wonderful Lucca, on the occasion of my wife's birthday, we had dinner at "Giulio", where my wife forgot a cashmere cape purchased a few minutes before going to the restaurant on the way out. The kindness, honesty and sensitivity of the owner was such that they immediately sent the item of clothing to Catania where we live, even without wanting to be compensated for the shipping costs. An attention and concern that is truly very rare these days. Great people! A kindness that adds to the fact that the menu and service were excellent.
Thanks again!

A cena il questo locale un po' fuori dal centro cittadino, appena dentro le mura. Inizio con un antipasto misto (prosciutto, salame toscano, soppressata, crostini con pomodoro e fegatini, olive, melanzane, frittata di verdure, polenta fritta); proseguo con dei tortelli al ragù e del filetto al pepe verde per chiudere con cantucci, buccellato e vin santo.
Locale molto grande e molto caotico, tante tavolate: nello stanzone dove abbiamo mangiato riuscire a conversare era davvero difficile per il rumore. Piatti discreti, niente di eccezionale.
