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.

Looking for this place can be a challenge especially if not local as we did spent sometime driving back and forth the street... the building itself looks simple, an old pink house from the beginning of the last century like some others found in the area... but once stepped inside a different world is shown...Style between rustic and smart without being pretentious, informal with classy touch... Lots of bottles, corks and wine wooden boxes; antiques (a beginning of the last century flour mill is displayed at the initial dining room), farm tools and artifacts, drawings, posters, old maps, LP records, old prints... liked the one with the dogs queueing for their turn...We had their starter trio of appetizers: ewe cheese soufflè on a broad beans sauce, a pork loin carpaccio and eggplant parmesan beautifully presented with their logo plate, inviting (and delicious); raviolis and a very rich and creamy tagliatelle with walnut sauce and red chicory which filled my evening appetite... even if full for the main course, there is no way (well, for us!) to skip their desserts since is nice to end with a flourish; pear and ginger crumble and a slice of chocolate and ginger cake. Wine was suggested by the host, a local Vermentino that greatly matched with our meals as the local area is better known for their whites not for the reds... We think everything is fair priced and of value, considering the whole context: quality and quantity of wine, food, presentation, place and service. An enoteca (wine repository) with bistro, antiques, music and great caring sympathetic hosts, what else can we ask when needed a relaxing lay-down dinner... we enjoyed our dining experience here, the type of place we like, pity that we live so far away...

We had pizza probably 8-10 times on our recent trip to Italy, and this might have been the best-top three for sure.The first kudos are for serving us in the first place-we arrived at our pension at 9:30 pm and were looking for any place to eat at 10:00 pm on a Monday night. Pizzeria al Bacio was still open, and on seeing our hopeful faces they were happy to serve us at that time even though it was clear that they were winding down for the evening.It's not a fancy place-decor is spartan, but we each enjoyed our pizza (mine was pepperoni and olives, my wife's was rucola) and a half litre of house wine, and the bill at about 15 euro was a bargain by Canadian standards. Definitely worth a try if you are in the area and looking for pizza.

Lovely owner, spoke English, staff were very stressed and fast which made experience a bit anxious. Having said that the same meal which was fine dining equivalent back in Australia would have cost $80 per head which only cost $20 per head for 3 courses

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!

After much hype, we dined at VOCO restaurant in Fosdinovo. The portions were ridiculously small. The calamari appetizer had 3 small pieces of calamari in it and many fried vegtables. It was wzrm, at best, and a bit soggy from oil not hot enough. The main courses, a risotto dish and a VERY small pizza, very ordinary. The risotto was watery and the pizza had almost no cheeseThe atmosphere is lovely and the restaurant is very well decorated. We would not return here.

Overall a poor meal with some exceptions.We started with the antipasti, which was about 7 or 8 dishes of whom only three were worthwhile i.e. liver pate, vegetable mousse and the courgette with meat filling. My main was veal kidneys which were greatly overcooked. No finesse. I had asked for them to be cooked rare. My friend had the salted cod. This was very good and properly cooked i.e. moist and tender. We shared a pasta dish which was excellent. The wine was outstanding, as it ought to be at 60â¬. My fist choice was not in stock. It took an unacceptable length of time for an alternative to be offered and served. It was decanted and then never served, nor were our wine glasses even filled during the entire meal.This was our third visit and will certainly be our last.

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
