Vispa Teresa In Lucca

A little haven where you can indulge in good food and the excellent hospitality of the owners. Friendly, patient (we were a group with little girls), and professional. Highly recommended!

We ate for two at this quaint little restaurant on a Thursday evening. The pappardelle with wild boar was excellent. The sliced ​​beef was also good, although a little tough. The fig and walnut jam cake was very good. The price was average. Friendly staff. Fast service.

I first went here ten years ago. While the staff and menu have changed over the years this place provides good food, well prepared. Its true spaghetti carbonara is currently the best I have run across in Lucca. Good traditional Luchese pastas and well prepared steaks. Nice small room ambience. One of my go to spots.

Very good food and excellent service. The staff was very kind and welcoming towards us❤️

The food was good quality, though a bit pricey. The service was pleasant.

Excellent food, friendly service and a nice, typical Lucca atmosphere, very well kept.

We ate the best and most tender Florentine steak in all of Tuscany

Very welcoming and intimate, classic good quality food and above all not too touristy!

We walked in without a reservation, and the blond, light-eyed, very smiling and helpful young man sat us down. We ordered and were quickly served: Lucchese-style lentil soup, EXCELLENT, a humble dish but with very well-balanced toppings, characteristically the best we've tasted in the Lucca area. Baked potatoes, EXCELLENT, a real DRUG... we literally drank them... among the best we've ever tasted. Truffle tagliolini, EXCELLENT, well-soaked with its creamy sauce and the quality of the truffle shavings excellent, the pasta cooked perfectly! Steamed spinach was good, but be careful with the salt, it was almost inedible. Cantucci and Vin Santo were EXCELLENT, finally some "probably pastry-made" cantucci that deserve to be called such! 2 bottles of water, a glass of red wine, and 2 excellent coffees = €60.00 A special tribute to the chef, "father of the very young head waiter." I repeat my compliments; we ate very well and were served admirably. Overall, great image (a quaint little restaurant just outside Lucca's city center) and great substance (the chef's passion and love for his craft are evident in the dishes). The only flaw (which can be fixed) is the front door; unfortunately, the constant draft from the fact that it keeps opening makes it uncomfortable, especially for those unfortunate enough to be sitting at the entrance. I would definitely return. I will recommend it.

The place is small, but we ate well and the host was very welcoming and kind.
