LA BISTECCHERIA

Reviewed By CNOWales - North West England, United Kingdom

Had the pleasure of being brought to this beautiful restaurant by our friends who live in Livorno who dine here regularly. Our visit did not disappoint. After our complimentary entrée of Pappa al pomodoro and glass of prosecco we feasted on our starters and main courses.
The truffle dishes are divine, the pizza, the best my partner has tasted, and the meat tender and delicious! Service wasn't speedy but in my opinion that shows how much love and attention they give each dish. Best meal we've had in a long time!

Attended for a mid week lunch at approx 1.30pm. 2 people. No booking.
Upon entering you feel like you have stepped back to the grand old buildings of 1960s Italy. Sat on the balcony with spectacular views. Sun shining and clear Blue waters and Mountains as your vista.
Service: Polite but nothing special. Laid back and a little too calm. Disappointed the waiters wore runners...it downgraded the place a little( although not expecting Armani Leather shoes either!). Irrespective, let's talk food...well...you gotta go. Had the seafood risotto...cooked to perfection and deliriously tasty. Rice with a slight crunch ( as it should be) and ample seafood and tons of flavour.Would have it again with out question. Then had Fritto misto...lightly fried seafood of various sorts. Well.....I personally was worried it might be heavy and sit in my stomach. Forget that. Lightly battered and the seafood was fresh, clean and tasty! Add a bottle of Tuscan wine white and guess what... a perfect 3 hour lunch. Great job guys!! Ps reasonably priced also so the runners do not matter.....highly recommended.

We found this restaurant when visiting the nice church in Montenero (10 min from Livorno) and were really impressed.
If, like us, you like good quality food and a calm atmosphere with no tourists in shorts, then this is definitely the place worth having lunch or dinner.
The vast majority of people there were locals, which was a good sign for us.
It is a family run, very neat restaurant with enormous range of local and other Italian regional wines. We had an amazing bottle of white wine
for something like 10 euro which is an absolutely unbelievable price even for a supermarket in London. The food was simply fantastic: we had fresh
seafood assortie and rissotto with cuttle fish, which seemed so fresh that we imagine it had just been in the sea a couple of hours before!
There were also a lot of small pleasant surprises such as hand made chocolate served with coffee and a trick at the end of the meal when the waiter watered the hot hand towel and it grew like a plant! So that all really made our day and we would definitely recommend this as a place to pop into when you are driving around Tuscany

Reviewed By Efrat B - Chicago, IL

We had a very short stop in Livorno on our way to Siena and decided to stop for dinner at this lovely restaurant. We were very grateful that it was open early for dinner and that the owner, Valeria - took such good care of us. She brought out her laptop and google-translated the entire menu. This is a place that I found on TripAdvisor.it, so most of the reviews were in Italian. I guessed right, that a restaurant that locals enjoy would be the way to go! We started with a Cheese, Etc platter that featured homemade jams (delicious). My husband then had the cod-filled ravioli, with the owner's recommendation and I had the bolognese with fresh, home-made pasta. For dessert, we had the tiramisu which was divine. Highly recommended - thanks Valeria!!

Antica Friggitoria

Reviewed By TacoKidBW - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

My wife and I were in Livorno for a day as part of a Viking Oceans cruise. While walking around the market, which is a great experience, we came across this place. Hot fresh yeast donuts sprinkled with sugar. Oh my! They were absolutely fantastic! My wife is a donut connoisseur and she thinks it is one of the best she has ever had. I concur. She said they should have a "Hot Now" sign in the window like Krispy Kreme does in their window. The only place comparable is Granny's Donuts in Bozeman Montana. See my review for this place. If you ever get to Livorno France you must go here and have a donut. It is a little hard to find but it is worth the hunt.
