I migliori ristoranti di cucina vegetariana in Toscana

14/04/2026: It's nice that you can choose two flavors in 1 scoop! Highly recommended!! 🥰

12/04/2026: Their vanilla Gelateria is the best I have ever tasted.

05/05/2026: This is where I want to return as soon as winter melts and the days slowly lengthen. Because you don't come here just for the delicious cuisine that pampers you with dishes that interpret tradition in an original way or invent something entirely new, or to taste a craft gin that reigns supreme at aperitifs, or a vermouth that you can't quite tell is a vermouth but says so itself, or for that glass of wine while enjoying a breathtaking sunset. No, you come to Frank & Serafico also because it makes you feel good here, because you're surrounded by, if you know how to see and listen, the beauty of simple and therefore precious things.

05/04/2026: My family and I just left our Easter lunch without paying. Frank was one of my all-time favorite restaurants. I'd been coming there for five years, and today, the first day under new management, was a terrible experience—one to truly forget. Neither my mom nor her husband have ever experienced anything like this. We arrive, no one greets us, and I make my way through to figure out who to ask for seats. We sit at our table. We had reserved for 1:30 PM, but we arrived slightly late and were seated at 1:45 PM. A small aside: there were seven tables occupied with a total of about 20 to 30 people, so it was almost empty. Browsing the menu, we notice that some prices have gone up, about 20% from what I recall. After a 15-minute wait, we order five dishes to be brought to us all at once to share. Minutes pass, after 45 minutes I ask how we're doing and the waiter tells me "another 2-3 minutes and we'll be there" and after an hour, at 3 pm (by now not hungry and also annoyed), 3 of the 5 dishes requested arrive (one of them was the tartare - preparation time maybe 1 minute, just for the plating, and it hadn't arrived!) without even an apology for the insane wait and telling us "here, they were preparing". In the meantime, I had asked for another still water (which never arrived). Three dishes arrive and the burger my mom requested, telling the waiter (who was the only one in the room and who actually turned out to be the new manager) to remove the cheese and bacon from the bun. It arrives with the bacon and cheese. At that point my mom gets up and goes to take it back and they say that it was instead addressed to another table and that they would remake it. My mom returned to the table, and at that point I also got up to tell him that the other courses weren't being served because it was 3 PM and we weren't hungry and we wanted to leave. At that point, the drinks and cocktail assistant (who was also under the previous management, the only one who remained since everything changed) told my mom not to address him that way because she was working, annoyed, and annoyed. At that point, I tried to speak to the waiter, who claimed to be the new manager, and he prevaricates without apologizing or offering any explanation, simply saying, "If you don't like it, you can leave." I swear, nowhere in the world have I seen a manager behave like that, saying something like that, I almost laughed! I responded very forcefully, saying that you clearly have a problem and that you should be less arrogant and more humble. Then I told him to look around and see how many people were there, and I asked him if it was normal that out of all the tables he has (about thirty), only seven were occupied—two with two people and one with three of us. I repeated, "Do you think that's normal?" and "Is that the way to respond to a customer?" I said, "It wouldn't last long if this is the way things are going and the new management's good morning." In all this, the only one who behaved professionally and humanely was the chef, who left the kitchen and, apologetically, said it was his fault. What can I say? We were about to leave to get our bikes and head back to Alberese, and in the meantime, a girl came running out, asking us what had happened. We told her, and she, too—a customer of Frank and Serafico for 10 years—was surprised that they'd been there since 1 PM and by 3 PM had only received one dish to share...they hadn't even had lunch yet. She was quite angry and surprised, not realizing it could turn out like this. And I/we too, honestly... with a change of management, it's normal for things to be subdued compared to before. Certain things change, certain balances... but this is a complete disaster. Never again. I can't help but create bad publicity for everyone and strongly advise against it—at least until they reopen, and I think, if they keep going like this, it will be soon (I hope so). P.S.: The only glass of wine brought to my mom's husband was cloudy and had sediment.

27/08/2025: Very clean place, very kind staff. Recommended 💯💪💪💪

07/08/2025: Lovely sandwich shop to stop at for lunch. Prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. Employees are accommodating.

30/10/2025: Excellent pizzas, it really feels like you're in Naples

05/10/2025: Finally, I haven't eaten a real pizza like this in a long time.

04/04/2026: Good panino but not worth the long queue as it had nothing special. Some of the other places had much shorter queues.

12/02/2026: It’s been years since I’ve been and still think about it to this day! Next time I’m in Italy I will make sure to go!

01/12/2025: An unexpected seafood restaurant in Barga. Simple, tasty dishes. The risotto was slightly below my expectations. The stuffed cuttlefish were exquisite. The fried fish was also excellent.

11/11/2025: Friendly staff, excellent food, welcoming place.

20/04/2026: I periodically stop by this pastry shop for breakfast, always ordering the ginseng and cream croissant. I love their products; I find their croissants beautifully buttery and flaky. On Saturday morning, I decided to try the renowned "Cubo" and was pleasantly surprised. I had company, and I must say that this uniquely shaped croissant filled us both up! Congratulations! I'll definitely be back. The pastry shop staff is always very helpful and kind, even at peak times when customers are crowded!

17/04/2026: Overall, it's a very nice place, with a wide variety both for breakfast and in the evening for an aperitif with friends.

04/04/2026: An excellent crème caramel with good coffee Friendly and knowledgeable staff

02/04/2026: The girls are always smiling and very polite at any time. Highly recommended ♥️😘

08/12/2025: Everything perfect thank you very much

04/12/2025: With the agency's recommendation, we received a discount on our bill.

27/04/2026: The pizza is very good, the place is very noisy, waiting time for two pizzas about 50 minutes, on a Saturday evening at the end of April.

05/04/2026: I called to ask for 4 takeout pizzas. They told me they'd be ready by 9:30 PM, so I arrived at that time. At 10:00 PM, after a few requests, the waitress told me to speak to the pizza chef because she was too busy. I understand they might be busy, but you can't commit to a time and then not even care, and then not even apologize!! Shameful. They make good pizza, but there are plenty of places that make good pizza and respect the hours... After all, I even paid for the full pizza!

05/04/2026: A wonderful experience. The ambiance is only 4-star because of the unique exterior, but the interior is absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious, the service fantastic, and everyone was very kind and helpful.

02/04/2026: The atmosphere was lovely and warm, like stepping back in time with the Chinese paintings. It's a shame about the air ducts overhead; the bathroom sink was very nice. The courses were served in order; if someone hadn't finished their dish yet, they'd wait until you'd finished and then bring the second course, which I really appreciated and have never seen in other restaurants.

15/03/2026: My son had already been there for his birthday and he told me he had eaten well there. This afternoon my husband and I went and I must say we had a great time. Excellent food, fantastic welcome, very fast waiters. I will definitely be back, well done everyone.

15/02/2026: Excellent and carefully prepared food Impeccable service! Nice atmosphere with a large garden. Recommended!

24/03/2026: A charming and welcoming place, run by friendly, courteous, and efficient staff, offering an interesting menu. We had excellent pappardelle with venison ragù, fettuccine with artichokes, and the extraordinary lamb chops. We had a great time!

23/09/2025: Excellent production of typical Sienese sweets!

13/09/2025: Maybe we should change the opening hours on Google so at least someone doesn't waste time coming all the way there and reading "closed".

31/12/2025: Found this place with my mother by accident. God knows this is a great pizza place ❤️
