I migliori ristoranti in Lucca

09/11/2025: This cute reataurant is tucked in a little courtyard with a cheerful lemon theme. The food is solid, the service friendly. We were there for lunch, most tables were populated by tourists.

03/11/2025: Starting with the positives, the place is beautiful and quaint. Now, getting to the point, I arrived at 10:20 PM. After being seated, they handed me the menu and I asked only for tagliolini with truffle. They told me they'd run out of truffle. So, I asked for salmon gnocchi. Nothing, they'd run out of salmon too. At this point, a little annoyed, I ordered a Margherita pizza, the simplest thing on the menu. Unfortunately, it was an unpleasant pizza. I understand that a kitchen might close rather early, but here I was taken for a ride. I won't add anything else.

04/11/2025: The Place to Be in Pietrasanta One evening, while we were in Pietrasanta, we discovered this elegant lounge bar and restaurant while strolling through the streets of the city center. The jazz music enticed us to stop and take a look inside. The decor was superb. We decided to sit down for a drink since it was already late. A couple of regulars were eating, and we noticed they were serving sushi. Judging by the customer satisfaction, I think the quality is excellent. As for the cocktails, they were a real treat. It was a superb evening, and I recommend this place to anyone passing through this beautiful city.

28/07/2025: We stumbled upon it by chance on a Sunday evening, without a reservation and with no expectations. The place is worth it because the food is excellent and plentiful, the service is prompt, and the wait is practically non-existent. The selection of authentically Japanese dishes is remarkable, with many variations and detailed explanations. The price is fair, and the music—strictly jazz—is absolutely unobtrusive and of high quality.

31/10/2025: I came in for a coffee and a hot tea, which were good in themselves but could use a bit of effort in serving things at the table.

17/10/2025: Went here several days for breakfast. Excellent service, food, coffee, and setting. Wonderful little neighborhood cafe.

05/11/2025: Excellent, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. They solved the problem I had with another unreliable bakery with a splendid and delicious cake.

02/11/2025: Made a stop on our way to Florence. Absolutely lovely pastries, cookies, paninis and coffee. Prices are so reasonable.

27/07/2025: Very friendly staff and excellent pizzas

06/11/2025: Had a lovely time there. The establishment is awesome and decorated with old American artifacts. The waiters and waitresses were dressed up in 50s clothing and rolled around on roller scates. There were plenty of american food options, and even some vegetarian options.

02/11/2025: The atmosphere is spectacular, although perhaps too crowded with objects and furnishings, and in some places, especially at the entrance, it's difficult to get through. The food is very good, and the service was fast despite the evening's crowds. One of the waitresses was a bit of a "disappointment" in the service, but we overlooked it because everything else was fine.

24/08/2025: Excellent pizzeria...the dough is delicious for those with gluten intolerances. The cecina, in various versions, is definitely worth trying.

21/08/2025: This is where they serve thicker pan pizzas (also gluten-free). We had the Pizza Gran Varignano and Burrata Pesto e Basilico. It turned out to be a good choice. The Cecina is a recommended appetizer. It's a kind of pizza slice with a French toast and pancake flavor.

03/11/2025: A traditional trattoria, not a fancy restaurant. Fast and efficient service, delicious tordelli. Very fair prices.

30/09/2025: Everything was delicious, especially the arrosticini.

04/08/2025: Super chef table. Chef Bernardo and the entire team are super professional. The six-course menu got top marks. Highly recommended.

12/07/2025: A wonderful experience in a magnificent setting and attentive staff

07/10/2025: Everything was beautiful but the waiting times were unacceptable for a business lunch.

06/10/2025: A nice bar with a spacious and well-furnished outdoor area. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

15/09/2025: Very positive experience, excellent food, excellent service, and more... kindness and friendliness from Mr. Eugenio, the owner.

06/09/2025: The gentleman is really lovely, typical restaurant, homemade dishes, very happy to have discovered this very pleasant place

29/10/2025: Clean and friendly staff. But the chip cone was half empty, and the piadina was the same. Complained, and they added a few chips... Honestly, it's more convenient, and above all, cheaper, to eat the piadina at home.

28/10/2025: an hour for 2 piadinas... too long waiting times

12/10/2025: A very nice and well-run small wine shop, with a wide selection of wines. I stopped for an aperitif and drank good wine. The platter of very good, high-quality cured meats was excellent.

02/08/2025: Excellent location off the highway, with convenient parking. Excellent breakfast: truly top-quality cappuccino and croissant. A receipt was provided (no small feat in Italy). Five stars, if not for one unintentionally "cringe" episode. In the bathroom, I found a sign encouraging proper use of the facilities, indicating that use is "monitored by staff." I don't like these kinds of notices; they're unwelcoming. As I was leaving, I saw (I think it was a pure coincidence) a staff member actually enter the bathroom. It left me feeling uneasy; I hope it was my impression, but... the message of care could have been phrased in a more hospitable way, commensurate with the quality of the breakfast.

27/08/2025: Had delicious sandwiches and cannoli, the coffee was also delicious.

27/08/2025: The cream puffs are heartwarming, and the rice puddings are absolutely excellent. The coffee is good, and the staff is friendly (unusual in this area). The desserts are a little more expensive than usual, but they're generous in size!

06/09/2025: Friendly staff and great prices

01/07/2025: Alpino is a great place to hang out with the locals and enjoy great coffee and pastries. Morning and night, the place is full of visitors and locals. A great way to blend in and feel like a local.
