Gnudi was the highlight.

I have some very mixed feelings about this restaurant. My husband and I hired a driver for the day…read morein Chianti to take us to some wineries, and he drove us here between the wineries for lunch. When we first pulled up, I was kind of excited because it was located on a hill and I was hoping for good views, but when we walked in, it was an ambiance killer. The patio area was in a bit of disarray, the patio was not open, but enclosed by glass windows that were cracked and the view was obstructed by bushes. We could see into the yard where there was an old foosball table, and a few other things, making it look a bit like a rummage sale. I honestly almost told the driver to take us away. It took us some time to get served which didn't make me any happier ,as I didn't want to waste my time there. When we did start to get served, it became obvious that it was family-owned, and the chef took pride in his food as he told us about the specials of the day. I chose a stuffed capellinni that was served with a smoked pumpkin sauce. The chef explained to me that the pumpkin had been smoked for six hours. My husband chose the trout that was cooked three ways. Afterward, they even brought him a trout fritter. I walked inside the restaurant to find the restroom. The inside of the restaurant was actually very cute with a campy, rustic feel with a lovely fireplace. It was much nicer than the patio. After lunch, the owner brought us some complimentary drinks and chocolates. At first, I thought is was grappa, but it seemed to be more of a homemade fermented tea. I really didn't care for it, but I thought it was a nice way to end a meal and showed the restaurant cared for customers. This place has potential, but they really need to take care of the patio area, and clean up the yard. I don't think I would ever go back, but it does seem to be a popular place with the locals.
