I migliori ristoranti di cucina altre cucine internazionale in Lucca

24/02/2025: We went to lunch today for the Cuziol tasting open to operators in the sector. It amazes me that a restaurant with such a renowned name, which is "alongside" a two Michelin star, is of such a low standard. Let's start with the fry: a diner specifically said that he was allergic to white fish, here comes a fry with fried anchovies. Luckily he notices the presence of the anchovies and cod and we send the dish back to the kitchen (anaphylactic shock stuff). The second time, sure of the dish, we find the anchovies. The comment from the "chef" instead of apologizing was: "eh but anchovies are a blue fish". Dwelling on this point instead of apologizing first seemed very unprofessional to me. Regardless of who is right. Moving on to the second course: Pasta not creamed properly, both lobster and clams, in both of them, once the pasta was finished there was practically a broth on the plate; the Cinta fillet was really overcooked and the portion for a 5 year old child must have been 100-120 grams. I'm just sorry I didn't take the photo. The service was very hasty but that was the only positive note. The place is very cold and anonymous. We regret leaving reviews since we are operators in the sector too but I hope it improves many things, especially on the kitchen side. We will return anyway.

17/02/2025: Good morning. More than a review I would like to clarify some nasty comments that some people made a few days ago. Il Principino is a historic venue known throughout Italy and managed in recent years by competent people capable of catering to a particular clientele. Obviously this applies to both the Bar and the Restaurant. Unfortunately, when you organize aperitifs or aperitif buffets with many people, especially here in Versilia, problems are created because people crowd together as if it were the last meal of their lives, creating useless and unpleasant queues. Having said this, in my opinion I have participated in some very large events such as the famous CreaModa fashion show and I had a great time in terms of organisation... in terms of space and quality of food so it was right to respond to these comments from the Porchetta Festival. You are and will remain the most iconic place in Viareggio...
