I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pastanella città Empoli della Firenze

18/08/2025: An unforgettable experience in the heart of Tuscan hinterland. An enchanting location, meticulously crafted, with an authentic and relaxing atmosphere. The food? A true celebration of local flavors, presented with taste and passion. Impeccable service, friendly and welcoming owner and waiters. I'll definitely be back!

15/08/2025: When we arrived, we were greeted by waiters, all male, very kind and attentive. We were seated outside in the garden among the olive trees and other trees. The atmosphere was wonderful, with lights that weren't too bright, but not so low that they risked blocking your view. Great background music, reminiscent of old movies, was just the right volume to allow you to talk without shouting. The temperature was cool compared to the heat these days. I must say the evening was pleasant. Despite there being several tables, no one was shouting, allowing you to talk. We toasted with a nice Prosecco, but you could also have a classic aperitivo. It's a shame the accompanying chips were soaked in oil. I ordered the mixed seafood for two and the risotto, and that's when the trouble began. The mixed seafood was rather bland, well presented, but let's just say it didn't leave a good impression. The risotto was unclassifiable. I don't know what type of grain they used, but some were overcooked and others completely raw. It tasted like a fish broth made with shellfish, with a slight bitter aftertaste. There were plenty of pieces of shellfish and chopped pistachios, but alas, their flavor was overpowered by the broth, which also served as an aroma. We had asked for a profiterole, since it was a birthday dinner, filled with cream, but it arrived filled with cream. Luckily, it was still good and didn't taste like something from a sachet. The others had grilled fish, which was more shellfish-based, good but not epic, and rabbit was good but not exceptional. The mushroom crepes were appreciated, while the Mazzara prawns on spring vegetables were a prawn on bean sprouts that weren't very fresh. Water, wine, and a cover charge completed the meal. All this for the "modest" price of €240. Also, based on the reviews, I was expecting pizza, but there was none. Again, I'd give it 7 stars for the atmosphere and staff, but the food, in my humble opinion, needs a major overhaul.

02/08/2025: Arriving late at our vacation spot and a bit tired from the trip, we followed our host's advice and went to dinner at Gli Scugnizzi. We sat on the terrace and ate really well (and in abundance)! The mixed fried fish was tasty, and my son loved the dessert: a cassatina, which he'd never tried before. The welcome was warm, the atmosphere relaxed, and the price reasonable. A good choice for a good dinner!

29/07/2025: We were referred here by a kind gentleman (owner?) from Zimbo Osteria Pizzeria on a Sunday afternoon after driving to several different pizzerias. Pizzas were not available at Zimbo on Sundays but their seafood smelled delicious as we were leaving. The food at Gil Scugnizzi (Margherita pizza, Stracciatella pizza, 4 Stagioni pizza, & linguine ai frutti di mare) was one of the best we’ve eaten on our short trip to Italy. The service was fantastic with a smile and the bright and cheery atmosphere was welcoming. We would love to come back.

21/07/2025: Oh my god, what a pinsa!!! Congratulations again, it's become a regular place even though it's not near me. Lots of quality, quantity, and excellent value!

26/06/2025: The gluten-free pizza, despite not being prepared in a dedicated environment, was not contaminated, at least my daughter was not sick. I did not like the fact that the guy who was working the cash register, then went to the kitchen and put the chips in with his (unwashed) hands.

19/08/2025: Excellent pastry shop and also pizzas and savoury dishes, fair prices and high quality, excellent service

12/08/2025: Slow service and always dirty both on the floor and outside the tables we have to clean them ourselves, no waiter takes the stuff away
