I migliori ristoranti di cucina altre cucinenella città Volterra della Pisa

27/04/2025: Chaotic and disorganized service. Good and plentiful platter but the first courses arrived after 40 minutes of waiting, after having requested them, and they arrived cold. There is room for improvement.

26/04/2025: It’s simple: RUN AWAY!! Passing through Volterra on an Easter Monday with a large number of tourists, we made the mistake of choosing the first restaurant where we thought we saw places available, without taking the time to read the reviews first. Quickly a first doubt: the waiter tends to offer us a table outside when we asked him to sit inside. “Don’t worry, we’ll lend you blankets so you don’t get cold.” We insist on having lunch inside, he seems disappointed. We will understand later why by reading the opinions of Internet users: the loan of blankets apparently costs money. Next: we selected this place because it looks like a pizzeria. In the street, a poster details the pizzas with supporting photos. But once seated at the table, we are presented with menus only with rather expensive dishes. In reality, the restaurant does not offer pizzas at every service, but they naturally avoid specifying that. Some customers already seated at the next table had the courage to leave once they understood the subterfuge (a name probably more appropriate than “refuge” for this place). We should have done the same. So here we are with an uninspiring menu poorly translated into English (“stek”, “mashrooms”, etc.). We end up ordering lasagna by default. In the meantime, they bring us bread. Or what's supposed to be bread. In any case not today, and probably not even yesterday, it’s so hard! Then a lot of waiting, but I could have suspected that: from my seat, I had a view of the kitchen where I was able to observe an employee take almost 20 minutes to prepare a simple charcuterie/cheese board. We still ended up being served 4 dishes of lasagna, generously drizzled with olive oil (to soften the dough which is also not new? Maybe...). Needless to say, we didn’t have the idea of ​​ordering desserts. But even paying the bill requires patience. Succeeding in intercepting a server that deigns to take care of you is a feat. I end up catching one of them with a glance, who has no choice but to come and edit the bill... before being yelled at without restraint by an older waiter. You don't need to be bilingual in Italian to understand that he is criticizing her for taking the initiative to take care of a customer (!!) when her role is simply to prepare the drinks. With his head down, he returns to his business... but so does the older waiter, who therefore leaves me stranded, waiting for our "assigned" waiter to eventually return from I don't know where to take care of the payment. The experience is so unpleasant from start to finish that, when you finally leave the restaurant, you have a strange feeling of freedom again. What a shame when you know that there are plenty of other good restaurants nearby to enjoy good Italian cuisine. So, don't waste your time here! As for us, we have sworn to ourselves from now on to systematically read the opinions of Internet users before choosing a restaurant...
