Asked the head waiter, dinner for one please. He was nice about it but shook his head, noooo, we have no tables available?!!! Not until 10 pm. All tables were empty, it was 8 pm. After dinner elsewhere (thank you great Ciccia Lische), i returned with Italian translation saying "As an executive of a famous company, traveling solo on business, it's a pity to not feel welcome. One small table, probably before any of your reservations arrived. Keep this in mind should you have another female executive wanting to dine in the future." he told me the text was spanish, not italian ?! and offered his mobile. No thank you.

We started with vino of course from a long selection of local Tuscany wines. We then split a vegetable salad that was topped with fresh balsamic and olive oil, bread, phenomenal Cacaio e Pepe and a pizza. They cook the pizza on a wood fire grill so we had to try it! One of the servers kept telling other tables about "cake" so of course we inquired and settled on chocolate. It was delicious! Service was great and accommodating to English which was helpful. Would recommend! Dining room also promotes conversation with close tables. We met a sweet pair of ladies on a girls trip and chatted it up with them over some dessert and vino. Lovely experience!

(Tina Fey, 30 Rock). One half is a little coffee bar with pastries and a large seating area. The other half is a little bookstore. I don't speak Italian, so I couldn't tell you if they specialize in any particular books, but it's a very modern, attractive, clean space! We ordered an espresso macchiato, an espresso con panna and a little croissant sandwich. There were different options, which we didn't realize- vegetariano, salami, and others. We had the veggie one, and it was delicious.

Frediano è stato aperto il bar-caffè-biscotteria "Santa Zita". Forte delle sue idee innovative, anche questa volta Tambellini sembra aver fatto centro portando avanti un nuovo concetto di bar, al servizio della più variopinta clientela che il personale (giovane ma qualificato) si troverà a servire. Ha unito la biscotteria a quello che può essere considerato il bar-pasticceria tradizionale, unitamente alle numerose proposte di thè e cioccolato, con i clienti che saranno accolti nella sala in stile vittoriano con mobili costruiti ad hoc da falegnami della zona. L'idea della biscotteria, decisamente innovativa (almeno per il centro storico di Lucca), serve a far convergere le varie eccellenze lucchesi in un luogo in cui vuole essere mantenuto alto l'interesse verso il te
