I say it's a 5 stars since during the weekend was one of the few places open for lunch…read more Thank you for being there, in the past and now. Tonio is a guarantee you'll stay pleasantly and eat excellent food. Of course prices are quite high, but they serve delicatessen and season food and the ambiance is also very classic and well decorated. They have a menu with mainly seafood choices, where Tuscan flavors are eternally present to refresh your palate. I ate a shrimp and melon appetizer, in basil sauce and a clams spaghetti, rare cooked (al dente) as we like it in Italy. Very nice welcoming and friendly mood, recommended if you like a calm place where to chat or you have a business meeting

The fresh seafood is very good, and the wait staff is really friendly. It's also very close to…read moreHotel 500. I really enjoyed the fresh seafood plater, boiled lobster, and to top it off the homemade tiramisu!

Service from Claudio = 5 stars! Service from others = 3…read morestars... Food = 3 stars, maybe at most...actually, between 2 and 2.5 stars Mom-in-law raves about the seafood...insisted on taking us there for a meal. We went as a big group (the whole extended family). The location was nice and quiet, looks the part of a restaurant that charges 40 Euros per person. However, I find the food in general a bit lacking...hmm... First of all, everything was a bit salty...a bit greasy and presentation is a bit sloppy. Of course, this is all relative to the price point we are charged. Seems as though they have one fixed menu...I deviated from the fixed menu a bit, but it did not do any good. The older server poured everyone a glass of prosecco, which was ok. Our cousin's husband ordered this light rose wine from the Veneto region...not so yummy. The only saving grace was this nice young server, Claudio, who tirelessly helped us with group photos. Inside the restaurant and out in the parking area. Kudos to him! Overall, the food was mediocre...I will not personally spend 40 Euros per person at a place that serves food as though it's a canteen...but the meal served a purpose...we met as a family and enjoyed each others company... Claudio, grazie!

On multiple occasions we were told by locals that Il Piraña was the BEST restaurant in all of…read morePrato, so we decided to give it a try. The venue is rather elegant, waiters wear tuxedos and decor is classic. However there was something about it that just didn't make it as sophisticated as we expected... maybe the group of underdressed Chinese tourists had something to do. Food was excellent indeed. Everything we ordered was delightful. All the way from drinks to dessert, we were all happy. The restaurant's specialty is seafood (no surprise there), so we all decided to trust their claims. I ordered a salt-baked sea bass: AMAZING! Definitely give it a try. Other fish, prawns and lobster dishes were ordered at the table, they were all great. Given the price and claim to be "the best restaurant in Prato", I chose to rate it with 4 stars since it is a great restaurant but by no means a 5-star restaurant at the price range it competes in.
