pizzeria Osée piatti tipici In Manciano

23/03/2025: Third time dining here. Came back for the food and hoped that the previous service experiences were rare bad days. Unfortunately it was not. Very disorganized. I know in general there is a shortage of wait staff in Italy, especially in these more rural locations, but other restaurants have found ways to cope. Quality of locally sourced ingredients are excellent. But the chaos of the restaurant (tons of kids, which is normal for a Sunday but still adds a layer of noise that isn't enjoyable for many plus dogs whining, and the exasperation of tables trying to get servers' attention) combined with the very random music, and terribly slow and at times very tense service isn't worth it. 20 minutes for water. Another 15 minutes to get our order taken. Another half hour for apps and drinks to arrive. Another 40 minutes for entrees. Instead of fresh ombrina arrived frozen swordfish. I really want to enjoy this place, and the staff under other circumstances seem to be nice, but it feels like the organization was formed by someone without restaurant experience. All that said, they have an amazing view on the beach. If they could at least be faster with the water, bread and drinks, the waits would be more forgivable. I will probably wait another six months before I try again.

31/12/2024: Spacious, modern, elegant room with large terrace with a view of the sea, wonderful to say is an understatement. Courteous, efficient, competent staff complemented by a chef who invents tasty and high-impact dishes. Rich assortment of especially local wines, well-stocked bar and excellent coffee. Definitely worth returning and recommending to those looking for tasty specialties
