De Cervesia In Lucca

01/07/2025: SO AND SO. Given the good reviews we decide to try the restaurant da Filippo. As soon as we arrive they make us choose whether to eat outside or inside, we opt for outside. We don't start off very well when the couple who arrived after us were welcomed first and served first, but an oversight can happen. We choose the 'so it is if you like' menu, after the third course we realize that the menu was wrong and we proceeded with the seafood one, our fault for not having pointed out the mistake, unfortunately however we have reached the second oversight. The food is good, but not excellent as advertised. Disappointed by the sprinkling of 'crusco' pepper, being originally from those areas I know it very well and honestly I remember a different and less 'powdered' flavor, the chef will surely have understood what I'm talking about. The tables outside are literally in the dark and it's really difficult to see what's on the plate. The truly exceptional thing is the bread, with a FANTASTIC leavening and an excellent flavor! The price was influenced by the exchange of menus, we rightly spent for what we ate. The customer-chef relationship, which is usually found in certain places, was zero, too bad, a comparison or acquaintance is always nice. Unfortunately I don't feel like recommending it.

24/06/2025: Seafood tasting menu. Highly recommended. Service - maybe for a very busy Saturday - could be improved a little. But absolutely recommended!
