This fish looked like it was frozen and it's was fair, nothing special. Tiramisu for dessert was so good. totally made up for the swordfish. It was made fresh that day and you could tell.

Our waiter, Emanuel, was full of smiles and Tuscany kindness. This is the first time we ordered appetizers, salad, main course, a bottle of wine and dessert. Everything was delicious and our total bill was shockingly very affordable for the quality and quantity. We ate like locals for 2 1/2 hours. The evening breezes were lovely. As we lay in bed I am surprised that I don't feel uncomfortably stuffed. We are looking forward to the leftovers. Goodnight Tuscany

It's a beautiful place that would be wonderful to visit anytime but in the summer would be fantastic. The wait staff is friendly and speak some English and since we don't speak Italian that is good. We had appetizers, wine, and dessert as well as amazing main courses. I was served a porterhouse steak (!) for $20 euro and my friend had the special which was roast pork so tender it melts in your mouth. The entire bill was $73 euro. The food is fantastic and I would definitely recommend going out of your way to visit.

A Bimbotto era il soprannome di un trisnonno che ha dato origine al nome del posto. Gia' prima de '900 era presente l'attività commerciale come bar, alimentari(le tipiche botteghe) e tabacchi. Inoltre negli anni '60-'70, il posto era famoso per gli spuntini (ciancini) dove venivano proposti piatti tipici della cucina lucchese. Con il 21 Giugno 1998 la famiglia Tofanelli ha riaperto il Ristoro, proponendo cucina tipica e pizzeria.

I had Tuscan Beef Tartar as an appetizer while my son had Estate Onion filled with sheep's ricotta and saffron. Both were terrific. My prima piatte was Corn Tagliatelle with Tuscan sausage, celery and almond pesto and lemon zest. My son had the Chick peas Strozzapreti pasta with cinnamon scented goat ricotta cream and chard from the estate. Again, both dishes were great. My cousin had Frantoiana soup and she raved about it. The best part of the meal was the Bistecca di Manzo, a grilled t-bone with hazelnuts and truffle, cooked rare to medium rare to perfection. For dessert, we had White chocolate cake served warm with fresh mint and a berry jam (Tortino Caldo di cioccolato bianco con marmellata di frutti di bosco). We shared 3 bottles of the house red wine produced on property (Lavandaia, Madre 2014 made with Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino grapes). It was delicious and worked well with every dish. The service was efficient and servers were always present, friendly and accommodating. We were seated in the upstairs with a group of about 15 and two tables of 2 and we never strained to have a conversation or to hear what others were saying. It was a wonderful meal and overall experience. I highly recommend a visit. Make reservations.

I am only commenting on our lunch, which was fantastic. This is a beautiful agritourism place in Vorno, outside of Lucca. They are only open on the weekend and you must make a reservation. Go for lunch when the weather is nice; sit outside and enjoy the amazing views, under the huge, brightly colored umbrellas, above the vineyards and below the hills. The food was wonderful, and not really all that expensive considering what a wonderful place it is. We decided to splurge, so we ordered a fancy appetizer, two pasta plates and second course along with drinks. Our bill came to about 55 euros - we could have eaten for far less had we wanted to. . Normally the only way to get here is by car. It's not too far to ride a bike to, but the roads are narrow and the cars drive very fast, so a bike isn't appealing. We solved that by riding our bikes on the path beside the aquaduct (Acquedotto Nottoloni) all the way to the end, and then made our way to Vorno mostly on back roads. We walked our bikes a bit on the main road to avoid riding in traffic. It worked fine. So if you go in the daytime, don't let not having a car keep you from making it to this really beautiful place. (It's easy to figure out with Google Maps.)
