"First time in this place and I have to say that it hit me very much! the menu is very varied, there is the embarrassment of choice, but the most beautiful thing is that they organize themed dressings. I tried the chicken bag and I have to say it was very satisfying: chicken wings, fries and two sandwiches (to be dipped in three types of sauces,) beer and to finish cracks at the nape. the whole to 20 euros and if not enough, included in the price you can reorder another! Saturday evening the service was a little slow, but I assure you that the wait deserves and you will dare sazi and satisfied!"

"This place is already present in your column but mistakenly census as the Red Horn Ristor instead of BAR RESTAURO IL CORVO ROSSO, same address. After a tiring research supported by the help of the navigator (but trust too much of this tool! , we arrived in this small fraction of the municipality of Collodi at the end of a narrow and winding road. The room is simple and familiar and after necessary booking days before we can sit in the large garden. Tablecloth and napkin of paper few dishes in the menu and staff very kind. We ordered the famous Lucchesi peas handmade to the ragù and a slice of Florentine 1.5 kilos with fried potatoes. Sweet (not extraordinary! , coffee and ponces (not amazing! close the evening. It was worth the trip even just to see cut meat on the table at the center of the room!"

"Rustic Tuscan type restaurant, very intimate, seats few people... traditional Lucca menu with some local reinterpretations, fresh zero kilometer ingredients... excellent service... the only flaw is the smell of the food that wafts throughout the restaurant and sticks to your clothes Parking: Internal parking, with not many parking spaces Service: Dine in"

"We were a party of nine or ten, we went there on a Sunday evening for the final meal of our trip. I wish I knew the name of the man behind the counter, but he was so very nice and good to us. The service was expert. The house wine was reasonably priced and very good. On to the entrees: Wife and I ordered the Florentine steak 'costata alla Fiorentina ', basically a very thick T bone). It was good enough; I have had this dish many times before and unfortunately I cannot say it was among the best I 've had. Again, still quite good. A friend ordered the spaghetti alla lacrima. The name means 'crying spaghetti ' because supposedly it is so spicy. Many times before I have had dishes in Italy that claimed to be spicy, but were really just spicy enough to tickle your taste buds. This dish was not so. OMG it was spicy and I had just one bite of it! My friend loves spicy food and said the heat lingered long after he finished. I believe it! Another friend ordered a calzone. It was massive and loaded with cheese. He tried his best but could not finish it. I ordered a contorno side dish), the 'cartoccio di verdure '. These were grilled vegetables in oil; very very tasty. Yet another friend ordered the tagliolini al tartufo; I believe he was OK with it but not impressed. Still another friend ordered the spaghetti carbonara di mare. I am guessing this is the typical carbonara but with seafood? I did not try it and do not recall what my friend thought of it. Several of us ordered desserts. I cannot recall now a month later what all of us had and apparently their desserts rotate because using the menu on their website as a cheat sheet is not helping. I do remember my wife ordered something very chocolate y and she was over the moon about it. This is an outstanding place to dine, do not miss it!"

"We celebrated our 53 wedding anniversary with our children and grandchildren here. It was the start of a trip that was three years in the planning due to Covid. The evening was wonderful. It was a great evening weather-wise. The only downside was another tour group that was dining near us had hired a musician whose music at times was so loud we could not hear each other. The other problem that kept it from being a 10 experience was something that happened that was very upsetting for my grandaughter. She had celiacs disease and has to be very careful about what she eats. The server told her all appetizers were gluten-free and ate accordingly. Later she found that one she had eaten was not,"
