13/04/2026: The best restaurant on the Livorno coast—and probably beyond. Trattoria Il Calesse is a true historic landmark for those who love good food without spending a fortune. The quality-price ratio here is rare: just consider that a tagliolini with lobster costs around €20, and it's packed with lobster. Federico, Leonardo, Sara, and Simonetta are the soul of the place: authentic hospitality and passion are evident in every detail. The dining room staff deserves a special mention: the girls are extremely kind, friendly, and always professional—they truly make you feel at home. The menu is comprehensive and carefully curated: both meat and fish are excellent, but it's the fish that stands out for its freshness and quality. One detail that makes the difference? The fish is always displayed at the entrance—a sign of transparency and excellent raw materials. Be wary of anyone who doesn't. It's one of those places that stays with you. If you're in the area and have never been, it's an experience you absolutely must try.
