This is a traditional Tuscan trattoria, friendly, full of locals. There is no menu but the food and the wine just keeps coming! The pasta was cooked to perfection and then huge plates of beef, which were fantastic, but we could not eat it all so they gave us a doggy bag.The staff were so friendly and attentive. We returned the following day in search of yeast to make our own pizzas and the owner insisted on giving us some of their yeast- so kind. This is the real deal. I will be back!

Tried only this restaurant once when staying in Montecarlo all September. The food was reasonable, but not more than that. And no wine-card. The young waitress told us, they only had 1 red wine. So strangely enough, we asked for a bottle of that. But then we saw the guests at the other tables got different red wines! When we got hold of the "senior" waiter, he explained, that she meant all their red wines (and white) were from Montecarlo. So in her opinion, they were all the same! Managed to get the wine changed. But he took our full glasses and the half filled bottle and returned with half a bottle! So we could easily walk in a straight line back to our flat. If you sit at a table outside, it is very stormy (the wind always blows down the main street). And if you try it inside, the music is too loud! So it definitely did not become our favorite restaurant!

The restaurant is one of the most important focal points situated along our estate. It is located in an ancient renovated country farmhouse. It is the perfect place to re-discover the fragrances and flavours of the Tuscan cuisine of long agoâ¦â¦ a time when

Many different employees move about. Wait staff are conversant in English, if somewhat stiff. No warm, homey feeling here although everybody was professional enough. Food was okay, nothing noteworthy. The setting was very nice and they seem to have a large enough following although looking at what some people were eating, their choices didn't seem to reflect the local cuisine. I tend to ask for recommendations. They were given in a rather matter of fact fashion, not the expected enthusiasm such questions usually elicit.

Found this little gem based on great reviews here and it was truly amazing. By far the best meal we have had in Tuscany! The Service, the food and the scenery made it an absolute perfect meal.Their Insalata de frutti di mare is a must along with any of their pasta dishes.

Staying in a resort nearby, we ate at Trattoria DeVero after reading good reviews. We werenât disappointed. The service was great, with very tasty food (and possibly the most tender, succulent lamb weâve had!) and it was also extremely well priced. We would definitely return if in the area again!Soggiornando in un resort vicino, abbiamo mangiato alla Trattoria DeVero dopo aver letto buone recensioni. Non siamo rimasti delusi. Il servizio era eccezionale, con cibo molto gustoso (e forse l'agnello più tenero e succulento che abbiamo mai avuto!) Ed era anche estremamente conveniente. Ritorneremmo sicuramente se torneremo in zona!Grazie Kasher per essere passato da noi. Ti aspetto dinuovo quando ripasserai da queste parti.

This is a fantastic place whether you are there for drinks on a Friday night or coffee one morning. The staff welcomes you with open arms and are just so lovely and friendly. It is possibly to sit inside or outside but I would highly recommend sitting under the Italien moon at night or the Tuscan sun during the day. They also sell breads, cakes and pizzas and have a clean toilet.

Two weeks ago I visted Ristorante Forassiepi together with a family member. I did write a review, but based on communication with the upset chef I deleted it and will by this rewrite my comments on the visit.I have lived more than 60 years by the Noth Sea, so fish and other âseafoodâ are well known. Due to different reasons I have cooked in the kitchen for more than 50 years but I do not call myself a chef, yet. The last 6 weeks, and two more to come, I have enjoyed learning more about the Italian kitchen so I am better prepared to invite neighbours, friend, family or other visitors that would like to dine with us in Montecarlo.I am also pleased to see I have catched up with 100.000 readers on my reviews on Tripadviser that I hope read my reviews as I read others. To find good or challenges with restaurants I like to vist when I am in a particular area.So back to Ristorante Forassiepi. Over the 17 years visiting Lucca and the area this was my third visit the Ristorante Forassiepi. Previous I have been reasonable pleased even it is 5 years since last time.I was very pleased, even we were prepared to come back. The person who took my reservation noted wrong day. Just the way I want it. See a table empty for 3 hours instead of have other people dine in between is waste. We wanted to check out their menu and taste the food. So two hours for us should be more than enough, normally. I poped into the chef just briefly before we were seated. The restaurant is obvius a place for fine dining. The clients this evening also indicated this.The menu is interesting and we appreciated the introduction soup, nice presentation and very good tast. For starter I had choose Octopus. I very often do that when I see it because I just love it. And this was prefect cooked, just delicious. Primi was our first disappointment. Both of us had risotto and it was not cooked enough. The plating was not as you expect a first class restaurant and the tast from what should be a marinated salmon disappear. I had picked Scampi (Nephrops norvegicus). Taste ok, noted is that you can choose from fruit or vegetables along with the scampi. I had fruit, so dolce along with my second and it lifted the dish completeness. However, again I was very disappointed with the presentation. I eat a lot with my eyes so I have different expectations depend on what kind of restaurants I visit.Second, disappointment of the day was when my family member ordered Lobster. As mentioned, lived by the sea expectation of a European Lobster when Lobster is put on the menu is there, so if any would like lobster at Ristorante Forassiepi, ask what kind of lobster are on the menu this day. Looking at their video on Facebook lobster is European Lobster present, but that was not what was given us. In general service is good. Based on the high priced menu it is easy to see they spend a part of that with having staff available, both in the kitchen and the front. Chef Antonio Pirozzi, has his 35 years pluss in business, but as years goes it is not as easy to watch all and keep a hand on everything. That we did not turn any dish back to the kitchen, sorry about that, just not something we do. I rather tell the story what kind of experience I have and leave it with that. This time was a âcosi..cosiâ experience, hope to visit again and that it will be better. White wine from Enzo Carmangiani was good and was a good match to our dishes.

During two weeks in the Montecarlo area we had a good number of restaurant meals and this was the most disappointing. There is an attempt to give the tradditional lucchese cuisine a modern twist but, as my coffee flavoured risotto attests, this doesn't always work. The 85 euro bill for two was way too expensive.

This is a lovely little Restaurant in the centre of Altopascio with the possibility to sit inside or out. The staff is very helpful and friendly though mainly speak italien. The menu is in both Italian and English and the one staff member speaking English is happy to explain if you have any questions. We had booked a table as there was 7 of us but as it was out of season and a Thursday night, it wasn't busy.The starters were amazing and the special stuffed zucchini a most if you go. There is a good selection of mains and they are happy to do gluten free if you ask. Also the puddings are fantastic especially the ice cream with coffee. We had a very enjoyable evening and was very well looked after.
