Pizzeria Da Sancio In Lucca

12/11/2025: This historic restaurant is a must-try in Lucca. The pizza was good, with excellent dough, but it was sparsely topped. The tortelli were also excellent. Recommended restaurant.

09/11/2025: Gli Orti di Via Elisa is one of those places you return to and think, "Thank goodness it exists." The menu changes but remains consistently interesting: carefully crafted dishes, seasonal ingredients, and never boring pairings. The atmosphere is welcoming and meticulously curated, often with details or decor that recall the seasons or local events, a sign that there's genuine attention here, not just marketing. The staff is always friendly and attentive, never intrusive. And what's rare: for those who don't eat animals, there's always an excellent selection of vegetarian or vegan dishes, thoughtfully crafted and not just a "sad alternative." In short: you eat well, you feel good, and you always leave feeling like you've made the right choice.
