We were very fortunate though. They had asked for RSVP and we didn't have it, but the nice staff gave us a table and asked to be done by 9pm. No Problem!! Another tiny quaint homey place with cheerful staffs. Everybody seemed to be part of the family or became family. We were hungry and it was our first night in Pisa, so we ordered lots! I wanted something warm, so I ordered a "soup", which became to be a bowl of mussels and clams placed on top of the piece bread soaked with soup. OMG, it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! Like good licking finger good! We ordered the Caprese also and that was like another world! Their balsamic was like wine, but without the alcohol taste! We were already in love with their food. It's like two entrees already, but it's ONLY the appetizers. Our pasta eventually came and that was another story. It's beyond words on how delicious and perfectly made pastas were. It will never be the same when I'm back in the US! Like all the other places we've been to, we ordered panna cotta dessert and lattes. We opted for something different since it was her birthday. The panna cotta was light and refreshing, while the lattes are energizing. Ohhhh how I want more of that "soup". Please go if you're in the area!!!!

The cuisine is hearty, no frills, down to earth Tuscan fare. Everything is very reasonably priced, dishes range from EUR6-EUR9, while a liter of the tasty house wine is EUR6. The pork with roast potatoes was especially good. Very Pisan and atmospheric (check out the single Roman column in the middle of the dining room!). Highly recommended.

We were strolling around in the old town of Pisa when the kids got hungry and angry (it comes in…read morepairs). We couldn't find the restaurant we were looking for, so we stopped at this place. The staff was ouside smoking, but friendly enough to lock the kids bicycle to the trolley in front of the restaurant. When we entered the restaurant we were impressed by the huge selection of wines, which is part of the interior. We were the second guests in the restaurant but the restaurant filled up pretty quickly. I'm not sure but it could be they have more tables upstairs. The ceiling seems pretty old but the rest of the interior was not overly impressing. The menu serves a nice range of tastes but is not too long to make it difficult to make a selection. Staff quickly brought some bread to ease our starving youngsters. I decided for a Tuscan bruschetta type of starter with four different flavours, which was delicious. Primi piatti was then pasta with spicy sauce (cant remember the exact name) and my wife had one of these Tuscan soups made of vegetables and bread. Again both delicious. My second platter was lamb chops with vegetables. This was good but not overwhelming. However the wine which was a Brunello di Montalcino 2006 was very nice again. The kids had pasta with meat? Kinda like Bolognese but no tomato sauce. Apparently this was again Tuscan style. However they liked it. We also had some coffee and dolce and I think we paid a moderate price of 88 Euros plus tip.

And what actually makes me very happy is tha fact that am a Medium Rare fans, but unfortunately even quite expensive restaurant does that point of cocking wrong. The temperature of the meet was always at the point as well and the side course I had like salads , porcini mushrooms where all good! They also have some very good Toscana red wine by the glass like Rosso Di bolgheri at a very good price . Cost : absolutely worth it . The price / quality you get I believe is the best in Pisa .

Come here to reminiss about the days when mei goring noodles were a stock standard part of your diet and watch how the Italian students get fed. This place puts out a spread of all sorts of things in pizza bread, salad, mystery sausage and mystery loaf to accompany your very very strong, very, very cheap cocktail. There is a restaurant here too but stick to the buffet side. The restaurant has too much red velvet and I don't trust red velveted restaurants. So summing up: Go here for a negroni.
