Ristorante Alcide In Poggibonsi

An excellent dinner… This restaurant is very nice and well-kept, the staff in the dining room are always attentive, kind and never intrusive. Let's start with some truly delicious fish appetizers to end the dinner with the second courses, fried fish cooked very well, turbot with caramelized onion? winning pairing Excellent quality raw materials...!!!

We went for lunch for a birthday, the place is in good condition and well-kept, with references to marine environments. We opted for a seafood menu, the starters were a seafood salad that was too crunchy and not very tender and decidedly acidic, the creamed cod and only one mussel were very good. We chose three first courses with normal lobster, the calamari and prawn risotto creamed with cream (they say it is one of their specialities), the Venere rice with seafood, the best dish of the three. The grilled seafood where the cuttlefish was quite raw, the swordfish was cheap, and the prawns grilled without shell but with the intestines, same fate for the fried prawns with the intestines, to conclude the fried cod which was decidedly not fresh and stringy. I am very disappointed by the average quality of the fish given that it presents itself as a fish specialty restaurant and also by the very limited choice of wine list. I remind you not to have coffee! Cuisine and service are sacred and therefore mastery, love, ability and common sense are needed in pursuing a restaurant business and in recognizing the quality of the raw material. This review is an incentive to improve the service and quality offered so as not to forget the objective of catering, that is, eating well and making people feel good is the art of hospitality. Good luck and good work

The portion is super big! The taste is okay, it feels like home. I accidentally ordered the same thing (seafood soup) for the appetizer and main course. Unexpectedly, the portion size and taste were exactly the same. It was a bit painful to eat the second bowl. But the Alcide risotto is delicious. Finally got free after-dinner limoncello, happy😄

Restaurant serving the hotel of the same name, but also open to the external public. A pleasant environment, with a sophisticated atmosphere. Very kind staff, attentive to details and pampering the customer. The dishes are of excellent quality, with an eye to aesthetics and details, but without neglecting the quantity which is always perfect, without exaggerating and without leaving you with an "empty stomach". I had the opportunity to eat both lunch and dinner and everything was always very well looked after. Applause must be given to the owner, daughter of Alcide, from whom the restaurant's name comes. You know those people who transmit serenity, who make sure that the customer has a good time at the table and who, if they can, tell you some anecdotes about the history of the place, here the owner is like that, simple in her refinement. What can I say, highly recommended. I really congratulate you!

The food is of high quality as is the service. I was not satisfied that they made us pay for a dish that we sent back after only tasting it (it was spicy and not indicated on the menu).

Excellent well-prepared fish dishes, professional service that also puts you at ease. Excellent value for money.

Very good quality of food, nice atmosphere and a great waiter. Francesco is passionate about his job and it shows. Would eat here again at any time.

70s furnishings but timeless quality, professionalism and food. Absolutely a guarantee, now like twenty years ago and also like 40 years ago. Definitely worth trying.

Arredi anni 70 ma qualità, professionalità e cibo senza tempo. Assolutamente una garanzia, ora come venti anni fa e anche come 40 anni fa. Da provare certamente.

Un pranzo di Pasqua eccellente. Puntuale il servizio e ottimo il menù. Tante portate e tutte buonissime. Ottima scelta anche per i vini. Se consideriamo il giorno particolare e che i saloni erano pieni, è giusto dire che hanno fatto un ottimo lavoro.
