The exhibit on Jacopo del Casentino in 2014 was the occasion for our visit to Pratovecchio, and we made our reservation at La Tana degli Orsi a month in advance. The menu offers a wide selection and there were specials too. The choice was not easy.While we awaited our first course, we looked around at all the teddy bears on the shelves. So thatâs where the name comes from! The hostess, Caterina, brought a delicious small tortina with cheese and nuts. We had been tempted by the fiori di zucca as our first course but decided that we had to have tortelli since we were in the Casentino. They were splendid. The delicate homemade pasta, like large hand-cut ravioli, was filled with pigeon meat and diced zucchini and served with butter and sage.One of our seconds was the spiedino di fattoria, which included pork, beef, veal, and chicken, all tender chunks just off the grill (and not overcooked), with a salad of olives, tomato, and potato. The other secondo was the scaloppa di baccala baked in aluminum foil with tomatoes, capers, black olives, and yoghurt. We did not order dessert but were served small coffee custards instead.Any visit to Pratovecchio MUST include La Tana degli Orsi, but advance reservation is essential. The management wisely restricts the number of diners to what the small staff can handle. We saw close to twenty people (not including the 35 teddy bears) but there was room for at least ten more. Nevertheless, during our meal the hostess politely turned away half a dozen people at the door.

Normally when we are on holidays, we try a different place each night. But we loved this place so much we dined here each night, trying out something different from their amazingly varied menu. Unfortunately, we couldn't dine here on Saturday night (booked out!), but the lovely manager lady offered us desert and half a bottle of wine (on the house!) in spite of that! Now that's what I call great service.We loved everything we ate, this place manages to strike the perfect balance between tradition and modernity - preparing some very original dishes, but using local, traditional ingredients. And the prices are very reasonable indeed, considering the outstanding quality.Grazie mille!Dear Lovely guests,We remember of you very well and it has been a pleasure to welcome you to our restaurant.We are happy you did appreciate our menù and mostly our philosofy!We hope to see you again next year,Kindless Annalisa e Ante
The cafe is lovely, modern and a perfect stop for lunch. The lady made a nice vegetarian sandwich and pasta for us. The cake with pine nuts was delicious. Everything was quite resonably priced too.

Blu Bar Ristorantino was a wonderful surprise for us! Our family stopped in on a whim while driving - it was late in the afternoon just before closing and we were welcomed in with open arms and big smiles. We then proceeded to have one of the best meals during our five week trip across Northern Italy. If you're in the area and haven't been to Blu Bar, seek it out! We'll be back.Thank you for writing a positive review on the Ristorantino, it was a pleasure to have you here, we are not used to welcoming tourists from abroad but we try to offer the best possible service ... see you soon!

Modern and familiar restaurant,managed with competence and passion by Cesare and Barbara.Placed in Soci country heart,the restaurant is intimate and reserved,with wide and luminous glass windows and a big outside courtyard.To few minutes of car from Poppi
Pleasant food, yet not outstanding and friendly service.But the dinner took very long, probably owing to an overwhelmed kitchen crew (although the restaurant wasnât full).A good option, but there are better places in the vicinityDear Pierre,thanks for taking the time in writing this review, although we preferred the same time will dedicate to read a good book.I would rather have that in writing this review had written in detail when it was, how many you were and what you ate. From what you wrote I can not figure out when and how we were wrong.Our cuisine is all expressed and then happen to wait, especially when the restaurant is full or when customer orders are difficult to manage.What I can hardly believe is that the service was not great nor friendly. Usually the service is one of our strengths.Best regardsBarbara and Cesare

Arriving in time to get one the outdoor tables with a nice view we were warmly welcomed. The menu is creative and different than the stand Italian fare. And oh how delicious. My husband had the tomato pasta with anchovies and pinenuts and it was perfectly delicious and lightly seasoned, no overwhelming fish taste. I had the crusted rare tuna with sauteed vegetables. This was one of our best meals in our two weeks in Italy.

Visited here twice over a week holiday in Poppi. The food is absolutely to die for. I had the tortelli de patate and the Mercurio pizza, and both were easily the best pizza and pasta dishes I had encountered in Italy. Food is ridiculously cheap also considering the fantastic quality of the food. One of the main reasons for returning other than the meals was the beautiful views surrounding the restaurant looking all over Poppi. Only reason I am not giving five stars is because the food did not come out at the same time so some people had finished eating when others food just arrived, and side dishes came out after our mains. Otherwise, a great experience. Would 100% return.

The reason for the many positive reviews are probably more a craving for a change of Italian fare of great pastas and wines that this region has to ofger rather than for the quality of this joint. Don't get me wrong, the beer is good (although nothing to compare with the top micro breweries) and desserts are not bad neither, but it goes downwards from that point. perhaps we should have sticked to safer options, but the stinco(pork shank) as well as chicken were very average. The service was also not great with waitresses forgetting a lot of things including drinks and cutlery. next time, I would stick to a few beers and perhaps some snacks, but definately no meals for me.
