A great pit stop on the way to the sea.
We enjoyed excellent dishes balanced between the mountains (mushroom tagliatelle) and the Lunigiana (testaroli), and an equally delicious pork fillet with Chianti. The owner was friendly and chatty. The prices were fair, and... we'll definitely be back. A tip: while you're there, wander over to the Romanesque cathedral dedicated to San Moderanno. It's worth it!

Nothing to say about the food... everything was excellent, from the fries (which isn't a given) to the delicious herb tortelli to the potato and porcini mushroom tortelli, and the testaroli were top-notch!
Prices ranged between €9 and €12 for the first course, which I thought was fair (if you had a receipt), the fries were €5 for a small dish, but really good, and the desserts were €5 too much for what they were.
It was scandalous to ask for a car seat for my daughter and he told me "you'll find it in the bathroom." It's scandalous to have to clean the bathroom for my children to use, because they hadn't been cleaned since maybe 1980, judging by the dust on the toilet paper holder. It's a shame, because they seemed kind otherwise.
€96 (with the kindness of a €1 discount) and then we realized outside that, even though he said "wait, I'll give you the receipt," we had a piece of paper in our hands that said "pick up the receipt at the cashier." Well... without a receipt, the discount could have been bigger 😅

The first time we went for breakfast at the bar... today we stopped for lunch...
A wonderful surprise... the location is excellent, the place is divided into a bar area and three perfectly and tastefully furnished rooms...
Excellent pizza... the sliced steak was spectacular, compliments to the chef... quality meat, perfectly cooked... as was the side of potatoes... the apple pie was a small sample, but excellent...
Fast service... no wait... courtesy and friendliness...
More than excellent value for money...
Easily accessible and with nearby parking...
Deserves more than 5 stars
I highly recommend it, it's worth it!!!

On our way to Italy, we took a rural route due to a traffic jam and discovered this village. There's free parking, which is really convenient. The location is slightly uphill but easily accessible, and the walk there was a bit of an adventure for the kids too.
Many restaurants there don't open until 12:30 p.m., and we were lucky that the timing worked out just right. So we went to da Romano. At first, the service wasn't particularly friendly, which was a shame. The chef, however—I think his name is Luca—was very friendly and attentive. After we ordered, the service became a bit friendlier, although overall rather reserved.
The food was delicious. I had a beef fillet, which was really delicious. The kids had Margherita pizza and fries. The fries weren't standard fries, but freshly prepared potato slices that were more like chips—a special and very good change.
The restaurant was completely full at lunch, which shows how popular it is. There's plenty of seating, but the restrooms are limited. For men, there's only a hole in the floor, which I personally find outdated.
Conclusion: A cute little restaurant with very good food and a friendly owner. Despite some minor issues with the service and restrooms, I would definitely go back.

The coffee was good, but we found it a bit pricey. A double espresso: €3.50.

Excellent little village restaurant. Large dining room. Unpretentious. But impeccable, from local specialties to pizza, including a homemade tiramisu to try!

Typical mountain cuisine, delicious porcini mushrooms and tagliatelle, meat main course, they don't have a side dish, but you can order it separately, honest prices
