I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Toscana

03/11/2025: Unmistakable cecina and marinara!

15/10/2025: Anyone who's been there always comes back. It's very popular with locals. Italians must enjoy it too.

30/12/2025: Our favorite "canteen" in Florence! Throughout our stay, this restaurant became our go-to spot. Located practically steps from our hotel, we dined there almost every night, allowing us to sample a large part of the menu. It's a reliable, welcoming place with consistently high quality. What we loved: - The Pizzas: Absolutely excellent with a thin and perfectly crispy crust. The pizza with fresh burrata and arugula is a pure delight, visually stunning and very generous. The classic Margherita and the mushroom and ham pizza are equally delicious. - The Pastas: Authentic cuisine. We particularly recommend the ravioli with ragù (meat sauce), which are flavorful and comforting, as well as the simple yet perfectly executed spaghetti. - The Desserts: Don't leave without trying the panna cotta with red berries for a refreshing touch. The sweet chocolate pastry is also a delightful surprise. (Tip: avoid the tiramisu; the sponge isn't soaked enough and the cream isn't set...) The setting is typical of an Italian trattoria with its exposed beams and open kitchen where you can watch the chef working at the pizza oven and rotisserie. The welcome is always friendly, even when the restaurant is full. In short: Whether for a quick pizza or a full dinner, La Piazzetta is a sure bet in Florence. Unbeatable value for money in the neighborhood!

27/11/2025: Varied and very inviting menu Everything was delicious

15/12/2025: December 2025 The last time we ate here for an 18th birthday (about a year or two ago), we had a great time; the pizza was good, and we had a fantastic evening. The opposite happened a week ago, for a friend's birthday. The real problem was the pizzas: all burned, not just one or two, but about 15. I was the only one who didn't order one (and I thought I'd made the right choice). Until I was presented with an overcooked, unappealing burger, with about 30 grams (no exaggeration) of vegetables (all for about €17-18, and the vegetables were an extra charge instead of fries). Not to mention the drinks, about €6.50 for a really poorly poured draft beer. I would have been truly happy to have spent my €25.40 on a good dinner, especially since, after ordering bottles and other things to celebrate, they could have given us 40 cents each on a total of about €400 and made it a nice sum. Last but not least, if they wanted some of our cake, they could have let us know, instead of keeping it quiet and keeping it, since we forgot about it in the confusion. But I think at this point they didn't mind, especially since it was very good. That said, maybe it was a coincidence, but I won't be returning. Edit for the reply: Good evening, I see you didn't like the review, but I didn't imagine you'd call us begging us to take it down, offering us discount coupons in exchange, etc. The review remains to report an experience, nothing more, nothing less. I just wanted to share this unpleasant experience. It's possible to mess up service, but when all the dishes come out wrong, you have to admit it (burned or cooked incorrectly, it doesn't matter, they're not good, period, and I recognize our mistake in not saying anything at the end of the dinner). You suggested we send all the dishes back, but that was impossible. It would have been downright mean to send back about 15 dishes on a Saturday night after waiting about an hour, given how many of us there were; we probably finished by 1 a.m., not to mention the stress on the staff. Also, I didn't even dare insult your background—as you called me, brewmaster or pastry chef—since that seems childish to me. Regarding the cake, we kindly offered to cut it ourselves so as not to disturb anyone, so I don't see the point of mentioning it. That said, if you can't take criticism (since your response was capped with insults), I'm sorry. The staff, however, was kind and helpful; no criticism of them. Have a good evening.

18/10/2025: We tried the "unlimited" option for €19.90, which allows you to choose up to four dishes per person (a limited-time offer). We ordered a few fried foods and pizza. The fried portions weren't huge, but they were still very good, especially the sweet potatoes and the nuggets. We thought the dippers were the ones with the skin on, but they actually contained regular chips. As for the pizza, the crust was quite light and crispy, more reminiscent of Roman pinsa. Overall, it was good. The staff was friendly, and the place is very unique!

22/01/2026: Kudos to the owner for his exceptional kindness. We celebrated our mother's birthday and had a wonderful meal. Highly recommended. BRAVELY GOOD!

05/01/2026: Great food, great service and very friendly owners

07/09/2025: The pizza is excellent but there are often waits even if we set a time.

19/11/2025: Very small restaurant but with very high quality and a relatively low price (fixed menu)

27/09/2025: Friendliness and excellent cuisine make this restaurant a place to spend a pleasant evening and enjoy quality food, cooked according to the best Tuscan tradition.

08/11/2025: Very good pizza, top-notch courtesy

18/10/2025: Delicious pizzas with top-quality ingredients and a wood-fired oven!!! Hard to find anymore!! The owners are incredibly kind and friendly, and thanks to them I've managed to move away from my usual ham and mushrooms!!! When I'm there, I recommend the current specialty pizzas, the one with pumpkin cream, provola cheese, and pancetta is indescribable!!! I give it 5 stars because there aren't any better!! I highly recommend it!!!!

22/11/2025: After we booked, they sent us away saying they'd run out of pizza dough!!! We were speechless...

04/11/2025: Personally, we didn't enjoy it. We ordered a seafood risotto, which arrived completely overcooked and had a rather questionable flavor. A plate of pasta with an inedible sauce and pizzas that were barely adequate.

24/01/2026: The pizza is very good, the stuffed schiacciata is superb. Prices are average, service is quick. Takeout is also worth it.

18/01/2026: Excellent pizzeria! The place is always very clean and well-kept. The pizza is really good, and the girls working the counter are very knowledgeable and friendly. It's always a pleasure to stop by! Highly recommended.

08/11/2025: Having moved from Porto Ercole to downtown Orbetello, I finally managed to eat there again today... A little more inconvenient for us, as we're always in a rush, compared to Porto Ercole, but the quality of the food (superb pizza and super crunchy), and today, given the rotisserie, an excellent lasagna and a delicate and delicious roast with potatoes, the friendliness and hospitality of the owners has not only remained the same but even increased. Now a second home for those who work away from home and are forced to eat out, I assure you in Argentario that's no small feat... Especially in the winter... I wish you the best of luck, you deserve it, and of course I recommend everyone to go to Squalo Charlie!

10/09/2025: Excellent products and service!!! Highly recommended

25/01/2026: The best pizza I've ever eaten, the Gourmet tastings left me amazed by the intense flavors of each taste, at each course the very kind lady explained the procedure to us, and the origin of each ingredient, the house desserts were exaggeratedly good and special, my friends and I asked to taste those too 😋 and to finish three shots of house liqueurs, go there and try this galactic experience, I add very kind staff 💕

10/01/2026: The best pizzeria in the plain. High-quality ingredients, excellent service, and a warm welcome.

22/11/2025: Ordered 2 takeaway pizzas, very good, I recommend!

08/11/2025: We ordered seven pizzas for delivery, and they forgot to bring one, misplacing the order even though we'd texted them the number of pizzas. We received the pizza over half an hour later. A very bad experience, and I'll never go back.

11/02/2026: Beautiful location, excellent food, good meeting point, precise and attentive service, fair prices.

07/02/2026: The atmosphere was beautiful and the dishes we ate were excellent.

26/12/2025: Christmas lunch set menu. Everything was excellent, from appetizer to dessert. The staff were knowledgeable and extremely friendly, the service was prompt, and the place was spotless. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

26/12/2025: Update December 2025: We celebrated Christmas here with our family. Service was excellent, and the food was excellent. Three seafood appetizers (see photo) cost €60 (paccheri with cherry tomatoes, scampi, clams, and lupini beans), mixed fried fish with anchovies and fried vegetables, and panettone with cream, water, wine, and coffee. It was sold out. Update 2025: Everything is always great at La Casina! --- We're regulars at this restaurant, and I can say it's an extremely good restaurant, especially for the price. The dishes are good and plentiful, and there's no cover charge. I recommend the tagliolini with lobster, the seafood sauté, and the cacciucco (fish stew). Located in the Viareggio pine forest, 200 meters from the sea, it offers both indoor and outdoor seating, with air conditioning. During high season, it's better to reach it by bike than by car due to the lack of parking in the area (free parking nearby from 1-3 PM and after 8 PM). They often offer a free after-dinner drink at the end of the meal. - August 2023. This year too, we've been to the local restaurant a couple of times, always top-notch. The seafood is good and plentiful, and there's a fixed-price menu available (4 appetizers, 2 first courses, fried food, and water, plus wine). The staff is friendly and helpful, and there's a wide variety of "ammazza caffè" (afternoon tea) for those like me who don't get the usual "amaro del Capo" (a bitter liqueur). Don't be put off by anyone who complains about slow service. The staff is always busy, but when there's a lot of people, you might have to wait, but that means you'll eat well!

13/02/2026: Excellent pizza. Excellent customer service. Always attentive staff. Informal yet welcoming. Parking is a challenge given the road.

16/11/2025: Always a guarantee! Quiet, family atmosphere, excellent food, great service, fair prices! Congratulations!
