Frequent visitors or Fosdinovo, a beautiful medieval town nestled in the mountains with a breathtaking view of the Gulf of La Spezia, we were taken by surprise when we stepped in this Trattoria! The food is sourced locally, quality and atmosphere are outstanding. The wine - my personal favorite is the Cardlin, ... after trying them all! Cannot wait to go back, hopefully in the very near future. Thank's for your break in Fosdinovo, we are very pleased to read such enthusiastic reviews about food and wine, se you soon

It would be 1 star if not for the staff friendness.I was here for dinner, arranged for 20:15 (times are relevant). The restaurant offers 4 set menus, all of them have focaccia with different companion food, water and a glass of house wine:1. A cured meats and cheeses tagliere, and a veggie souffle (20 euros)2. A porcini pasta dish followed by a porcini tagliata (25 euros)3. A wild boar pasta dish followed by wild boar and polenta (20 euros)4. A mixed grilled meats meal (30 euros, min 2 people)Orders were taken at 20:30. Some focaccia appeared within minutes. I opted for the porcini set meal.Around 20:50 people who took meal 1 were served. But people who took meals 2 and 3 had to wait until 21:30 (!!!) to get their pasta. And the main courses of meals 2 and 3 were served around 22:10. Times were clearly not acceptable. But, at least for meal 2, the food itself was NOT acceptable as well, completely different from what normally meant to be (and of course, what was served was much cheaper than what expected). To be explicit:The porcini pasta was served with a sauce mainly made of smoked bacon with only tiny bits of porcini: the porcini flavour utterly lost, given the huge amount of smoked baconThe main course, advertised as a tagliata chianina with porcini, is meant to be a slab of meat at least 5 cm thick, done on charcoal, sliced in 1 cm thick slices, covered in fresh raw porcini cut in a julienne fashion: instead I got a slab of meat barely 3 cm thick unevenly cooked (and NOT on charcoal), cut in thick slabs, deadly cold (!!!), covered by slices of Parmesan cheese, and with a tablespoon of porcini sauce on a side: totally unacceptable, it is almost cheating the customer.I did look around, and the set meal 1, although fairly abundant, was also on the cheap side: some plain different cured meats, a couple of cheap spread cheeses (gorgonzola and stracchino), some anchovies: normally, a "plate of cheese" means a selection of cheeses with some peculiarities (like mountain goat cheese, cheese with herbs etc): again, what served here is far from what normally expected when a cheese plate is advertised.

We were referred here by someone at a local winery. Everything was so perfectly wonderful here--waiting for a table while exploring the hilltop-medieval village above it, dining with a sweeping view of the coast, eating amazing food and laughing at ourselves as we tried to decipher the menu. It is a very local place, so speak Italian or be prepared to wing it!

The only downside is that service is quite slow, but the food is great, and the fixed price menu for 15euro per person includes everything from a drink to start and coffee/desert to finish.

The place is fool of character! Nicely decorated and the staff is fantastic. No menu as they only serve beef. Nice list of vines to choose from. The most delicious beef I have ever tried in the restaurant !!! Highly recommend to all meat lovers. Book your table as it's very popular
