Il Fornacino has an adventurous menu that I was excited to try. Like every restaurant in the area…read moreit offers the traditional Tuscan tagliata di chianina (is there a law?) but there's also rabbit stuffed with veal and truffles and a very on-trend Swiss chard, ricotta, and truffled egg raviolone. I started with the latter, which was delicious -- but the powerful flavour of cheese and the egg yolk drowned out the chard. My wife's potato flan was quite nice, but it arrived buried under a heap of truffle shavings that tasted of nothing in particular. My main was a special of roast suckling pig with potatoes and a savoury tuile made with the pork drippings. The tuile was gratuitous -- a chef-y touch that didn't actually taste very nice. The suckling pig was beautifully cooked but the potatoes were weirdly inconsistent; some crisp and others mushy. Il Fornacino is a good restaurant that would be the best restaurant around in most places, but the five-star bar is set pretty high in Tuscany. But the prices were very modest and the wine selection was great. It's a tremendously good value for what it offers.

What a find! Clearly a locals place, but very welcoming to the wandering tourist. Warm decor,…read morefabulous food. Loved our host and staff. We took the time for a traditional, multi-course Italian lunch. The seafood pasta was exquisite, followed by grilled fish, and grilled calamari. Fresh, plentiful, impeccably prepared. Tiramisu was more like a pudding than a cake, but had some of the best flavor we've come across in the Med. Bypass those touristy places on the piazza, and slip around the corner to this place. Oh-so-good.

Stopped in for a simple pizza, and I was immediately floored by their delicious pizza. Their pie…read morewas a masterclass in all things tasty and good. With crust that was simply perfection and cheese that brings the whole thing home, trust me, my foodies, you just can't go wrong with this one.

Looking for a late meal near the hotel, this place looked too prominently situated to actually be…read moregood. But (try this technique) by walking between tables seeing what people were eating, the pizza looked solid. Nice balance of ingredients to crust, alluring. Little was I to know, what a fantastic pizza this would be. The best pizza of my life (well, next to Da Michele's double buffalo mozz in Naples). I don't know if I got lucky, and all the pizza stars aligned when they threw this one together (the table next to me had multiple pizzas come around the same time, but none looked this great), but this scamorza cheese (a lot like mozzarella, but lightly smoked), eggplant, black olive and sublime sausage pizza was one of the most superb creations I've ever eaten. It puts most every other "dish" I've ever had on the back burner, because with most dishes, each bite tastes the same as the last, but with this pizza, every bite was different than the last, and each phenomenally delicious - - just spurring you on until you've enhaled the whole thing, and were supremely glad you did. Went pizza shopping tonight, from place to place (walk through restaurants, and see what they are serving, and what people are eating - - a real education), and finally settled on a very popular place where the pizzas looked OK (if not maybe a bit overly wide) and it was decent - - but it made me pine for the pizza from le Delizie. I mean, at le Delizie the topography was lovely - - no square inch of the 'za was like any other - - each bite had a different concentration of ingredients and a different texture. And even the edges around the crust were to die for, with wonderful light stretch and crunch, and still succulently moist, with a ravenously delicious red sauce (look how it glistens near the crust in the picture I'll attach). This pizza was absolute, total, perfection. Every bite of this pizza was luscious. It cost 7 Euro (plus 2 Euro coperto); the 1/2 liter of sparkling wine from a spigot was cheap, zingy, and refreshing. And after the meal there is a complementary carafe of limoncello, and the service was adept. I mean, for chrissakes, every "Italian" place in the States is nowhere in the same ballpark as a place like this. I'll keep pounding the pavement looking for something in Rimini even close to this standard [wait, no, I'm going back tomorrow - - I've learned my lesson.] .

This is what I miss the most living in NY and each time is such an amazing experience. The place is so cozy, chic and warm that I feel like I'm home. The staff is super sweet and nice, so helpful and always checking on us if everything was ok or if we needed anything else. The food! Ah! My god. Freash seafood cooked and served with so much fantasy and perfect balance of ingredients. My Crostini di Mare plate came with a little flower on each crostino and I couldn't stop smiling. This is definitely a Michelin star restaurant but instead you pay very average prices. The selection of beer is incredible and you can also order your take-away beer. A MUST TRY: Fritto misto. To die for :)
