Prosciutto crudo, stracchino e rucola, erba e salsiccia are the traditional fillings but their menu offers a good verity so that everyone is satisfied. They don't have vegan options but if you ask, they won't add any dairy ingredients! For 5€ you get a super filled piece of torta with a drink, what's better than a cheap and tasty dish? My friends and I love to eat there when we hang out in town. I really recommend this place and torta al testo is a great street food!!

Our local guide picked this restaurant which she said was "like" their fast food. But what it was…read morereally like was wood-fired stove that made bread that was like two big slices of pizza which is used to hold your sandwich ingredients; I ordered sausage (locally made and famous for) and fresh cooked spinach; I loved my huge sandwich! Looking at the menu/placemat the sandwich was 5€ and wine was .20 or 20 cents...their brand wine! If we were traveling on our own we may have never found this restaurant! I thought mine was delicious-others ordered prosuiccito ham/cheese, roasted veggies only, cheese alone...seemed to enjoy!

Oh my goodness, this was another tour guide recommendation…read more It was just AWFUL. This is also a big tourist trap. They charge you €2 per person for the silverware, then charge you €0.50 for a spoon full of ketchup. We each had a container of fries to go with our sandwiches, so one small thing of ketchup was not nearly enough. Obviously, we ordered more, hoping they'd bring us a ketchup bottle. Nope, because they were charging for the ketchup, we didn't see that till the bill came. My daughter had the cheeseburger. According to her, she has never eaten such a dry, crunchy burger in her life. Obviously, she didn't finish because it was hard to get down. As for me, I tried the recommendation of the tour guide. Big mistake! The classic Florentine sandwich, the Lampredotto. I should've known better, but I'm willing to try anything once. It was a chew, tasteless, slimy sandwich. You can't eat it like a sandwich because it's so wet and soggy that it falls apart. You need a knife and fork. You needed the ketchup that they gave up by the spoonful, and still, it was tasteless. This is not a place I recommend to anyone. If you're used to eating juicy burgers, this is not the place for you.

What's to say about another McDonald's? The one thing you can say is: you'll always feel at home…read moresomehow. You always get exactly what you know and that's what you expect. This location is different in that way that it offers a few other eateries since we are on the huge car and truck gas station facility. That also means you can find all the other knick knacks and other little things and gadgets that you need because you forgot to take them with you from home. Books, DVDs, phone chargers, and the like present themselves to you in an almost trashy form. But hey, I'm off track and not really rating the McDonald's anymore. But again, we know that one already, right? Oh and I almost forgot, free Wi-Fi! Enjoy your trip ;-)

This place fitted the bill for a laid back family lunch.

Perfectly placed for a choice of sun or shade at lunchtime, we were their first customers of the day. Simple menu but full of classic Tuscan delights including of course pasta with wild boar ragu. We shared a Antipasti alle casa between five of us and everyone found something they loved (the various crostini are very popular). The flavour high point was my daughter's nettle risotto: taste explosion yet so subtle. Efficient, friendly service (with good english despite only Italian menu) and excellent value for money topped off a perfect lunch experience. The prescience of the guys who were fixing the road at a neighboring table merely confirmed that this is the place to go for simple, authentic fare.
