"This place was about 3 blocks from our hotel. After dropping off our bags we strolled here for lunch. You enter via a wide main doorway. Inside there are 2 or 3 tables (for four) on either side. At the end of the space is a counter with a display case showing some prepared food. I think this was just for take-out orders, though. We walked up but were asked to select a table. We chose one near the door as it was a nice day. They also appeared to have a second dining area in a sort of tent covering the curb into the street. This was not uncommon for various restaurants in the area, from what we observed. They didn't devote a lot to decorating, but it seemed like a simple and efficient shop. The host came by with menus and confirmed our order for still water. They had a good variety of dishes, many of which were similar to what I'd expect to see on a similar place in the U.S. Everyone found a dish to their taste and we ordered, along with some naan and rice (they recommended 2 orders of rice to split, but I think 1 would have sufficed for us). The food arrived fairly soon and was good. Portion sizes were a bit smaller than you might get in the U.S., but that was standard for most restaurants in Italy and also worked well for us being able to comfortably finish the food without leftovers. Post-meal payment was a little confused. I first waited for the bill, then went to the counter thinking that I should pay there. I was assured that they would bring the bill, which they did. Another guy came by to process my credit card, and asked me to step out front. Apparently their handheld credit card reader (also common in Italy) got a better signal outside. On the 2nd attempt, it processed the payment. We all liked our meal here and would consider returning if we were again in Rome."

"3.5/4 for me. Feb 2, 2024 Ordered for the following 1. Involtini prima vera crisp and bigger than some other counterparts in pavia. Stuffed well and can be eaten with the salsa provided as a compliment containing tomato, pepper, chilli flakes, oil etc. 2. Riso con verdure miste rice texture was sticky , subtly sense of salt that one won't feel easily but its presence can be felt carefully analysed. In verdure vegetables there were carrot cut in julienne, zucchini , Enoki mushrooms , corn, scrambled eggs etc. Amazing to have. One might feel an lack of salt depending on the culture one comes from or follows. But in general the recipe itself includes very little salt to it. 3. Tofu con salsa piccante amazingly soft tofu that melts even before chewing comes with onions , green/yellow peperoni, Gravy at the bottom that was mildly hot in taste as it has a warm touch on the tongue and a slight burning sensation on throat which is good to have in winters mostly due to the inclusion of peppers. 4. Udon con verdure e uova thick soft spaghetti with carrots in julienne, zucchini, scrambled eggs that tasted saltier which mostly might be due to the fact that eggs are scrambled first with salt and then spaghetti is added , onions , eggs, Enoki mushrooms, etc. The plates made me feel I was having a sizzler. The udon was served on a wood base with a kinda cast iron plate shaped in the form of an animal on top that was piping hot to keep the udon hot and fresh. Overally the experience was a decent one and could be recommended to friends for mainly the price , apart from food. However I think it's a bit under staffed and there's a kind of an unknown communication gap among them. Thank you. Vegetarian options: There are less vegetarian options but still atleast one can get 5 to 10 vegetarian options which is still a decent one, in my opinion. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: €10–20 Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4"

"La prima cosa che mi ha colpito è che il menu fuori e i menu dentro erano tutti in italiano, per me un segno molto positivo! Lucca è una città popolare tra i turisti di lingua inglese e la mia esperienza con i ristoranti ovunque sul pianeta è che spesso si ottengono pasti deludenti nei posti dove il business si basa su clienti che vanno una sola volta. Eravamo un tavolo misto di italiani e americani e abbiamo iniziato con un paio di taglieri di antipasto (salumi e formaggi) che erano estremamente freschi e deliziosi, oltre che abbondanti. Poi abbiamo ordinato una selezione di primi piatti da condividere tra di noi (10-11 persone). Tutti erano buoni, ma per me il pici con tartufo nero era eccezionale. Sono una fan del tartufo, ma spesso nei ristoranti i tartufi non hanno sapore o c'è un gusto dominante derivato dall'olio di tartufo, che è spesso in gran parte un aroma artificiale. In questo piatto, il gusto era perfetto, un aroma delicato e un sapore avrei potuto mangiare da sola diverse porzioni di questo piatto!!! Essendo ospite, ero troppo timida per chiedere di pulire il piatto dei resti alla fine del nostro tavolo... le tagliatelle ai porcini erano anche ottime. Anche i ravioli ripieni con ragù erano buoni, ma per me palide in confronto ai piatti ai funghi. Passiamo al secondo. Ho preso un baccalà al forno, circondato da quei piccoli pomodorini allungati (non i tipici ciliegini tondi). È il momento migliore per i pomodori qui al momento, quindi erano freschi e saporiti. Il baccalà era umido e molto buono. Inoltre, era una porzione gestibile, il che mi va bene in quanto mi piace assaggiare cose diverse ma senza riempirmi completamente o dover lasciare del cibo nel piatto! Ma attenzione se preferite una porzione più grande. Il pasto è terminato con un eccellente caffè espresso. Un altro punto a favore. Sono rimasta stupita dalla bontà delle bottiglie di vino della casa. Davvero. Incredibile come possa sembrare, era persino bevibile con il baccalà, anche se si adattava meglio ai piatti di pasta. Nel complesso una serata memorabile e anche se il menu è in italiano, il cameriere può aiutarti in inglese se necessario, quindi non fatevi frenare da questo!"
