Reviewed By Stephen O
Ok. Iâll start with the positives. The food here is good and the setting is nice. As the title states the service is not good enough.I usually read Tripadvisor reports before I eat in a Restaurant. I didnt this time. I often find it good to read negative reports as well as good to get an over all picture. I also think that the management replies says a lot about a place. In this case the management seem to have an arrogant attitude to negative reports and I expect one to mine here! Even the best Michelin restaurants can make a mistake.Quite simply the service/wait staff are not good enough. We went here 4 times so had enough time to observe. We were staying nearby and kids eat free from a small menu (which is a big attraction). The food tasted good and it was convenient to where we stayed, hence the reason we came back. The first 3 nights were actually not too bad with just some small mistakes by the waiting staff which I wouldnât really criticize them for and on holiday I am usually happy to let things pass.As an example of the small mistakes: on 2 nights we ordered hummus as a starter to eat with the bread but it was brought at the same time as our main courses, we had been very specific on ordering that we wanted it as a starter.On the 2nd night the exact same mistake was made after explaining it even more clearly and saying it was brought out the wrong time before. We didnât really complain as it wasnât a huge issue, just a minor inconvenience. The service wasnât particularly fast or slow, we were on holiday and although we had a hungry small baby we were ok.We also did notice one night the blonde manageress having a row with a waiter next to our table. Not really professional but more of this later! Also we saw neighbouring tables have similar issues with starters coming out at wrong times etc so this haphazard service seems to be an issue.I donât really write negative reviews but felt compelled to do so. There was a power outage on a 35c night. Unlucky to happen and people are generally considerate about this. What isnât acceptable is how the staff tried to deal with it. We were not given any complimentary bread which is fine. What isnât fine is the total lack of communication between waiter and customer, we were literally left guessing as to when we could get our food. This was not a translation issue. All waiters spoke English well and we were simply not given any updates as to how long we would wait - this takes a few seconds. We had a hungry infant and 2 hours waiting with no update is not good enough. if we knew we would be waiting 2 hours we could at least know to go somewhere else - babys dont really understand about power failures!!We left and also didnât want to pay the Coperta and any proper restaurant would waive this as a goodwill gesture as we only had drinks. The male waiter (who was referred to as having the best English) refused and threatened to call police). He eventually relented but was obnoxious and arrogant. We were not looking for a free meal.I have eaten in thousands of restaurants in many countries. The basics of good service is good communication. Message for the manager: if you stop looking for excuses and actually train your staff to be better then you have a great restaurant. Keep criticising your customers who leave a negative review and this will keep happeningDear stephen O,Iâm afraid we are gonna dance this song for a long time. Trip advisor keep taking down your review, you keep post the same speech over and over again. I see your life is not that busy, so pardon my â arrogance â when i tell you that there are stuff that i can not tollerate in my company. Verbally abuse of an employee and of women in general is not one thing i make pass because you have a wallet and i need paying guests to be open.Iâll answer again, for those who donât know your music:1) we had a power outage in early july. Our kitchen and bar producion dropped to a 10% and a 30% , as everything run on electricity- The whole staff worked hard to serve what could be served, fresh drinks and the few things that could be served. Most of the guest got advised about it, but was given priority to serve guests. Some appreciate it. Other complained. I believe that a restaurant going dark, no lights, no ac, no music, it is a per-se indicator that electricity is off. My mistake. Some stuff need to be spelled out for some. 2). A guest verbally abused our floor manager, who accidentally happen to be a woman, as tones where so heated, a waiter came in support of the lady. That is good manner in every country. You saw only the last part of the speech and you felt entitled to fight an online battle for this bad educated guy.3) when a guest leave, for any reason, we ask hin to pay for what he consume. No more, no less. I strongly believe in training, and part of it is â how to deal with abusive costumersâ. Negative review are always a stimulus in growing a successful business. Unfortunately, not all negative reviews are made to better a place, others, like yours, just exist to fill the need to be heard online by 1.000 strangers, in the misguided conviction that their opinion matter. It matter if it can make a difference, better a situation, exposing a trend not perceived by management. A sterile compliant with a strangely persistent rant about how another stranger got treated is not helpful. I hope, if you have a daughter, that she will find a workplace committed to â employee protection â like ours. Iâll signal this review to trip advisor .... again. ( third time now that they take it down ) And iâll Copy paste this response so, as you do, we can keep dance this music without loosing too much time on both hands.Best of everything Fabio Gambini

Went there twice with all the family as we were staying at the Agriturismo Lizzarola inside which the Trattoria is situated. The service was excellent as was the food. We had some perfectly cooked 'Fiorentina' and also the 'tagliata' was great. All accompanied by locally produced wines. Prices are quite reasonable.

Nothing special. The fish courses were fairly meagre, basic dishes with a single lettuce leaf accompaniment. I would recommend you avoid any of the fish. The lasagne is a bit better in that at least itâs a large slab of layered pasta and mince but lacking any real depth to the ragu. The bread used to soften the blow of the cover charge is usually a good way of figuring out what the meal will be like. Iâm a good restaurant you get a range of breads and breadsticks. Here it was perfunctory and dry. It says in its lack of care or attention to detail âmeh touristsâ safe in the knowledge that thereâs one born every minute and they donât need repeat custom. Itâs typical fare for the tourist trap areas but if you want something memorable or cooked with real heart Iâd avoid it. We are sorry that our dishes did not live up to your expectations.We guarantee that in our dishes there is a lot of love and passion for our work.Thanks for this review that will help us improve further.

We stayed at hotel nearby, Ziba. Tried having meals in there twice, both times selected the Vegetarian option, both times we were told it was off. So we found Osteria Le spine, thankfully we did, service was superb. Didnt have veggie options on their menu, but whenever we went in they would rustle something up, and serve with a smile.Fabulous little find.

The first gourmet reinterpretation of the awesome classical street-food Toast recipe. Many different Toasts next to a selection of carefully selected brands for soft drinks, coffee, beer, wine and bakery.
Reviewed By sequalsdude
went there, only us in the whole place, bad sign, ordered 1 toast, 20 min later, the staff, which were more asleep than awake, came with the wrong toast. in the mean time another unlucky customer came, ordered a lemon drink, which took 10 min to arrive, they left it on the table, he was not able to open it, even using his t-shirt, he then went to the bar, waited another 5 min, while the staff were chating, before they opened his drink!!!! i would have leftbad service at a high pricekeep awayThis is surely a review from a competitor, written in english for some unknown reason, from an italian contributor. None from our staff remember him coming in the restaurant and what he is describing simply never happened. Impossible to get the toast wrong in Toasteria because our staff has a digital device to take the orders and they have to re-read every ordering to the customers before sending it to the kitchen. We cannot accept any bad review to our staff, well-knowing their highest value. Concerning the price, the average cost of our meal, which is healthy, of the best quality and very tasty, is around 8 and 13 euros. No less spending is possible for such a food quality. Thanks for giving us the chance to explain our brand to the customers.

My husband and I had two delicious fish dishes - both different. And we both loved what we had ordered. The staff were excellent - it was a very busy evening but they were attentive and went out of their way to make our evening special.

We had dinner here twice during our 5-days-stay because it was soo good and there were so many dishes we needed to try. The setting in the backyard is just beautiful, the staff is exceptionally attentive and accomodating and the food is just outstanding. Authentic and delicious Italian cuisine among touristic places - at reasonable prices. Would come again. And again.

On our way towards Dolomiti mountains, we decided to have a lunch break in Peschiera. The weather was quite good and many people were strolling around downtown Peschiera. We decided to visit this restaurant, which was the first time for us, also having read good things about it. Its location is a bit secluded from the lake front, but anyhow it was very easy to reach it. The presented menu was quite attractive, so we have been a bit embarrassed and it took us a few minutes to make our selection, but finally we did it, mainly mollusk/shellfish oriented, which has proved very good. To conclude our meal, we got a lemon sorbet and some "Tozzetti", together with a glass of sweet wine. Good! Price resulted medium/high, anyway in line with the quality of the food.

At itâs best, food in Italy is equally simple and full of flavour. We had a light lunch here in which every element was perfect. The best Parma ham I have ever eaten, sliced very finely indeed with possibly also the best burrata and a huge side salad. We were first presented with small bruschette of tomato and avocado which were sensational. On the table alongside the olive oil and balsamic was some balsamic cream which added another layer of luxury. A macchiato came with a few pieces of nutty biscuit in alcohol which made the coffee sing. The staff were delightful, especially the young guy who thought we were German ( as have most people here, bizarrely! ). This simple but outstanding and very reasonably priced lunch will linger long in the memory. If you are in Pescheria take a two minute stroll from the tourist traps in town ( of very variable quality ) and treat yourself in this delightful establishment.

The restaurant sits in a nice romantic place. Quality of food is very good, but1 a menu is not offered, you can choose only à la carte2 choosing à la carte does not allow you to choose every dish: a minimum of two person is mandatory for primi piatti and highly recommended for main dishes3 prices very high: ⬠8,5 for starters and ⬠16 for a meat dish4 portions are risible (!)5 service is rudeBuonasera sig. Franz ... purtroppo abbiamo molti dubbi sulla sua recensione, dal momento che non scrive nulla di specifico, ad esempio in quanti eravate, quando siete stati da noi, cosa avete mangiato ecc ecc .. e la foto del suo profilo è un'immagine generica quindi non si capisce chi è lei ... Scrive due prezzi ... uno errato, dal momento che non abbiamo nessun antipasto a 8.50 ⬠e il secondo dice 16 ⬠per un pezzo di carne .. un pò troppo generico e comunque sulle foto di tripadvisor c'è anche quella del nostro menù con i prezzi, stessa cosa vale per i primi è sempre indicato nella foto !!! (poca fatica sarebbe copiare a caso da li) Comunque ... supponiamo che sia stato veramente da noi .... non capiamo cosa intende per " non si può scegliere un menù, ma solo dalla carta" ... cos'è ?? forse si aspettava di mangiare un menù a prezzo fisso ??? ... e poi cosa intende per cari ??? i nostri prezzi sono perfettamente in linea con la nostra qualità (cosa che oltretutto scrive anche lei ...) ma a quanto pare la qualità non è una sua priorità , preferiva il menù fisso e questo la dice lunga ... Poi scrive che siamo stati maleducati ... in quale occasione ???? cosa abbiamo fatto o detto ??? mi spiace ma per poterle credere abbiamo bisogno di dati più concreti ... questa recensione ha tanto l'aria di essere stata fatta solo per danneggiare la nostra immagine ... e comunque la sua recensione è l'unica voce fuori dal coro ... quindi quello stonato e lei e non noi .... la prova sono tutte le altre recensioni prima della sua !!! saluti Valentina e Lorenzo
