We started with a plate of cheese, prosciutto, bread with house made olive oil. Then I had the spaghetti and my husband had the wild boar. Everything was sooo good! We also had a liter of the house red wine. I highly recommend coming here is you're in the area and making reservations as the locals love it as much as I do. The prices are also excellent for the food portions and service.

The restaurant seemed only to be at about 50% capacity but after we sat down it took 30 minutes before our order was taken. We received water in that time but no bread or any kind of apertivo. After we ordered it was another 45 minutes until the food came out so by that time we were ravenous. I think we scarfed down our food in a record 7 minutes due to being so hungry. Immediately following we asked for the bill but it was another 30 minute wait before we finally were able to pay and leave. Whole process took about 2 hours

Super nice staff greeted us when we walked in, and the interior looks small but inviting. We ended up ordering carryout (or, "takeaway," as they say here), and the food was a pleasant surprise. The Greek salad doesn't have lettuce, but the tomatoes, feta, capers, olives, onions, etc. are very fresh and delicious. The tsatsiki is creamy and tart, and is a a excellent complement to the Greek chicken souvlaki. And...the souvlaki is so flavorful and so fresh, that it was a unanimous hit. If you are in the mood for something other than pasta, give this place a try!

The eggplant dish was the best I've ever had in my life - and I'm 54. The service was excellent and our friendly, helpful waitress was fluent in English and generous in answering our questions. The front of the restaurant has a countertop and is brightly lit, but the main seating patio in the back is quiet, pleasantly dark, and small but roomy (there is plenty of space between the tables which we found was not often the case in crowded Florence). I highly recommend this hidden gem!

The other table sent back their wine for being too warm (we got the same wine and it was not too warm) and this table acted very demanding and entitled, bossing around the waitress and being extremely rude to her (for no reason other than they were mean people). She handled it SO well and with such grace, I was extremely impressed at how professional she was with this table of rude guests (I would have not been nearly as nice as she was to the mean guests). She attended to everyone in a timely manner and held her head up high as she was being berated by the guests. I will definitely eat here again because of our good food, cute ambiance, and amazing professional waitress. Thanks!

This restaurant was a lovely seafood restaurant, directed to us by our villa owner. I was very…read morepleased with it-- the fish were fresh, the service was outstanding, and the crowd of locals it brought in were fun. It is not a restaurant for the faint of heart, though-- expect full fish with heads, full octopi, etc. We started off with an octopus appetizer, which I loved. It was tasty, juicy, and the perfect texture. My first course was a clam pasta, in which I was given at least sixty little clams atop fresh, oily noodles. I have a feeling I'm not on Mulberry Street, anymore, Toto! I followed that up with a green peppercorn steak, which had a sauce so delightful that I ate every single peppercorn well after I had finished all of the meat! Post-meal, we were given iced wine drinks served in champagne glasses and homemade limoncello on the house. Service was friendly and quite accommodating. The weird thing is that they staggered our dishes one-by-one... But I think that was totally our fault, because we had tried to explain that we were sharing the octopus, but I think that was lost in translation and they thought that we were sharing EVERYTHING. It didn't matter-- vacations should have no time frame!!! Lighting inside was very bright, which was really odd, but it didn't detract from our experience at all. It's well worth the trip, especially if you are away from the sea but craving delicious seafood. I would go here again if I ever found myself in this region again.

Where do I start??…read more I'll start with an O. Then an M. Then a G. Then a YUM! We are two adults and two kids (10 and 13 years old). We just drove in today after 3 days in Venice where we had really good food. We were tired and hungry and a quick Google search showed us this restaurant very close to our hotel. We didn't have reservations and we walked in just before a large birthday party and they accommodated us quickly and with a "prego!" It's a small restaurant but not too small, and a little loud which is fine because we could hear each other fine. We started with the mussels, which were excellent (and better than anything we've had in the States where we usually eat lots of mussels). The broth was tasty and the mussels just a bit small, but it served the 4 of us and we were left wanting a LOT more. For meals, my wife had scaciatielli with clams and shrimps, and I had spaghetti with clams. They were divine with a generous amount of seafood. My daughter had gnocchi alla' sorrentina and enjoyed it very much - she's a gnocchi connoisseur and said it was her favorite gnocchi ever. I stole a piece and have to agree. They were soft but not gummy with an excellent sauce and cheese. My son had the pizze bufalo, which was awesome with a little thicker crust than you get in Venice. For dessert (and you KNOW we got dessert) we had chocolate cheesecake and chocolate cake with coconut mousse. If you like coconut, the coconut mousse will blow you away! The cheesecake comes in a jar, deconstructed, but covered in chocolate sauce. We had to pry it out of my daughter's hands! Overall, we'll be in Cortona 3 days. We'll eat here all three days! Tutte buona!!!! Perfetto!
