I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Toscana

11/04/2026: We had wonderful lunch & highly recommend.

08/04/2026: Easter Monday, fast service, appetizer and first courses were to our liking and the quality/price ratio was excellent, recommended

07/05/2026: We came to this restaurant without high expectations and were truly more than pleasantly surprised in every way. From the very first glance, it was clear how much effort and passion had gone into it. The ambiance is beautifully decorated, very cozy yet stylish, making you feel instantly at ease. It's rare to find a restaurant where everything just works so perfectly. For our starter, we shared the octopus salad. It was incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and superbly prepared. You could immediately tell that they use high-quality ingredients and place great emphasis on flavor. For our main courses, we had the gnocchi in Gorgonzola sauce and the seafood spaghetti carbonara. Both dishes were absolutely fantastic. The gnocchi were wonderfully soft, and the sauce was deliciously creamy with just the right amount of richness. The seafood spaghetti carbonara was simply incredible and definitely one of the best pasta dishes we've had in a long time. We would also like to give special mention to the service. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. You could really tell that they enjoyed their work and were dedicated to making the evening perfect for their guests. This positive atmosphere permeated the entire restaurant and made the visit even more special. All in all, it was a truly perfect evening. From the food to the service to the ambiance, everything was just right. We will definitely be back and wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. A well-deserved five stars! Grazie!

04/05/2026: We had a really great time as a group over the May 1st long weekend. Excellent food, excellent service.

21/04/2026: A huge mistake, not making the best stuffed pizzas and focaccias in Tuscany. When we asked, they told us to read the sign outside. The menu has changed too radically since the change of management. :(

20/04/2026: A nice place to have Lunch....a good view.

12/03/2026: Welcoming atmosphere. The lady and the two girls are very nice. Excellent herbal tea.

12/02/2026: A very welcoming place with a chill atmosphere (jazz music playing in the background) that's truly heartwarming. The staff does it all with a smile, and it's so nice! Thank you for the service; the food is also very good and reasonably priced. Always happy to come here!

18/04/2026: Excellent pizza. Lunch break with a fixed price for workers, honest in quantity, quality, and price.

18/04/2026: Always very good pizza, excellent ingredients.

18/04/2026: Welcoming place, friendly and fast staff, delicious pizza

14/04/2026: Good pizzas, good location, good service. Worth a visit.

19/04/2026: Good Neapolitan pizza and excellent service! I went on a Sunday evening, it was quiet and welcoming. I recommend it.

06/04/2026: It's become a regular stop: every summer we come to Elba, we always return to eat at La Rustica, and today, for Easter Monday, we were delighted to return. Over the years, we've tried absolutely everything, and the quality has always remained high. The seafood first courses are excellent, flavorful, and well-seasoned, the fried fish is light and tasty, and overall, you can sense the attention to detail in the selection of ingredients. Personally, the pizza isn't the restaurant's strong point, but everything else more than makes up for it. The atmosphere is also pleasant and the service is friendly; you always feel at ease. It's one of those places you'll gladly return to because you know you'll eat well and have a wonderful evening. For us, it's become a tradition and will continue to be so. Highly recommended!

01/04/2026: Nice, quiet place, good food. I really enjoyed the crostini; the focaccia (bresaola and parmesan) was good. The beer was also very good. Prices were average.

01/02/2026: The pizza is truly exceptional if you like fine pizza

08/04/2026: I agree, it's something I noticed, the pizzoni have shrunk,

04/04/2026: I can't judge the food because we went in looking for a table and there was no room, but I can say that they were a little sleepy if you see that there are people, get moving immediately and ask what they want.

06/03/2026: A small neighborhood pizzeria, a bit run-down but very successful. It's definitely a go-to place for anyone craving a good pizza at a good price (hopefully it lasts), and even eating it there has its place if you don't feel like taking it home and eating it cold in the box. The guys are friendly, we all know each other, even if we don't call each other by name; the pizza chef, who hasn't laughed since '86, is a working machine (!) and has a happy hand because he's pretty good. It works! That's what matters.

07/02/2026: Excellent pizzas, courteous and professional service

27/04/2026: We had a wonderful lunch. The restaurant is typically Tuscan and very charming. The menu is very varied, from meat to fish, which I recommend. In the evening, they also make excellent pizzas. I can't thank the owner and staff enough, they are truly lovely people.

10/04/2026: We spent a night at the restaurant and came with our camper through AgriCamper. Honestly, we were very happy with both the food and the service. Since we were traveling with our two-and-a-half-year-old baby, we really appreciated that they served her first. Contrary to what some Americans have mentioned here, for us that was great, especially since we didn’t even ask for it. It was truly wonderful and one of the highlights of our experience. The service was consistently excellent, and the food was delicious, extremely delicious. I highly recommend the pasta, especially the seafood spaghetti. I enjoyed every single bite. Bravo to the chef. Another thing we loved and highly recommend is ordering a local digestive at the end of the meal. We found out it’s made by the father of the owner or manager, who only speaks Italian. It’s definitely worth trying after dinner. It’s a shame we couldn’t buy a bottle since they only have large ones for the restaurant, but it was incredibly good. 100% recommended.

26/04/2026: Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. The kitchen offers a wide variety of dishes, some clearly better than others, but the pizza is definitely the highlight. Cooked in a wood-fired oven, it's not a bad thing. As for the service, it's neither bad nor perfect, but just right. The interior is spacious, and there's also a rooftop terrace for al fresco dining. The restaurant also offers an excellent online delivery service.

22/04/2026: Exceptional for food, service and value for money

02/05/2026: We walked in by chance, and from the first moment, I felt that wonderful sensation of being in the right place. The trio of tartares was truly the best I've ever tasted: fresh, carefully prepared, and made with true care. The place has an atmosphere that embraces you without making any noise, and the waiters were kind, attentive, and smiling. A simple but special evening, a surprise that left me grateful and eager to return.

23/04/2026: This place is amazing! I went here with a group of friends for a boiled meat-themed dinner and was impressed by the quality and service.

28/03/2026: Very good, high-quality burgers. The only flaw: the desserts. Change your supplier!

22/03/2026: Amazing food and cheap. The calzone is incredible and huge. Highly recommended.

19/04/2026: The best pizza in the entire area! Excellent food (not just the pizza, of course 😜), kindness and professionalism from the owner and all the staff! Highly recommended!

02/04/2026: As a regular at Pizzeria Cotta a Puntino, I returned tonight for the umpteenth time... and every visit is an experience that goes beyond the simple meal. Pizza here isn't just food: it's an explosion of flavors that hits you in the stomach and goes straight to your heart. My pizza tonight was damned perfection: thin crust, but also thick for those who prefer it, crispy on the outside and incredibly soft on the inside. Every bite is an emotional journey: it makes you close your eyes, sigh with pleasure, and think, "This is why life is worth living." Top-notch ingredients, a wood-fired oven that adds that perfect smoky touch—standing ovations are in order! Yes, I've read (and shared) a few reviews complaining about the wait times, especially when it's busy (and it always is, because it's good!). But as a regular, I tell you: those 15-20 minutes are an absolute treat. You sit down, chat with friends or reflect on the day, savor the family atmosphere, and watch the pizza chefs at work with incredible dedication. They don't rush: they cook every pizza "to perfection," with obsessive care, because their true joy is seeing happy faces like mine at the end. It's pure satisfaction for the team—I can tell by the proud looks they give me every time they bring me a steaming plate. In a world of fast food, here the wait is the prelude to a genuine emotion. I'll be back soon, as always. If you're looking for pizza that excites, Cotta a Puntino is the place. Highly recommended for everyone!
