Menu is in Italian only but everything we tasted was worth a try. So just order it or ask the waitress. We will surely visit this space again.

They deserve a 4.5 - wish I could give half stars! We had a tasting menu, with multiple courses. Keep in mind, the people who brought us here were friends with the owner, so who knows if they have this stuff on the menu. :) The appetizer platter was my favorite, with the prosciutto over lettuce being the best of the 3. My second favorite was the ricotta filled dumplings. Not quite ravioli (too soft), but oh so tasty! Desert was just okay - I sent next to a baker who said the sweets weren't as good as hers - so maybe I was biased!

The owner, Eduardo, treats you like family. we put ourselves in his hands. We had the appetizer sampler which was outstanding. I cannot say enough praise. Husband had Beef Tongue that melts in your mouth. Friends shared a Tuscan T-Bone steak which is cooked medium rare. I had a roulade of braised veal. Then the dessert sampler came out! Then add ons kept coming out. Eduardo even gave us each a bag with biscotti to take with us. Eduardo's wife cooks everything! I highly recommend you do not miss this restaurant. It is very reasonably price.

The Owner was very pleasant and gave us some needed advice on our trip to Florence the next day. They were featuring local crease porcini mushrooms.

Marzia, the owner, is gracious and made an excellent wine recommendation from the region, a super Tuscan which was mostly Sangiovese with a 10% Cabernet to give it a deep, bold taste. My husbands cod was fresh and flaky with a hint of bread crumbs and Tuscan beans. My traditional Tuscan soup was more like a saucy southern dressing than a brothy soup but very filling and warm on a chilly day. My husbands cuddlefish soup was excellent (a little salty for me, but I don't eat a lot of salt so probably perfect for most). The warm apple pie dessert with custard was also outstanding. I am not a big sweets gal but have to admit I had more than my usual one bite taste. Perfecto!
