Ristorante La Rocca

Friendly staff, nice place to eat, especially on the terrace and good food.

The food was delicious and the setting was stunning. Our waitress Diana was so helpful and friendly. Definitely worth a visit.

Great Chianina in this restaurant. Appetizers are just delicious

Since we travel a lot we visit a lot of restaurants, and this is one of the best we've had the pleasure of visiting. It's in a very old but beautifully restored building in Lucignano, Tuscany with rough-hewn beams on the ceiling and antique photos and artifacts decorating the rough stone and gleaming white plaster walls, while the white tablecloths, china, glasses and cutlery are modern and spotless. The chef/owner, Marcello Varignani, is cheerful and friendly and the food is superb. We were taken there by a friend who has a villa near Lucignano and so we had a full Italian-style dinner: appetizers, "first course" pasta dishes, "second course" meat dishes, and dessert, followed by coffee, and all accompanied by delicious wine from their amazing cellar. Since our friend was bringing us there for the first time he arranged for each of us to choose our preference for each course from the menu, and then had each selection divided into three portions so we could each sample every selection. Thus we all had an enormous variety of delectable taste experiences, ranging from a spinach souffle in a rich cream sauce to tagliatelle in a sauce with duck and truffles. We departed so stuffed we felt obliged to walk the circular "main street" around the inside of the city wall before returning to our car for the drive home, commenting all the way on the remarkable dining experience. One could readily consider moving to the area just to be able to enjoy dinner at La Rocca on a regular basis. I'm sorry the review format doesn't allow for a six- or seven-star rating, as La Rocca would certainly justify it!

perfect dishes. Love this płace

The quality of food is high, however the selection as of the menue is limited. Most dishes with meat. No salad at all. The Terrace is nice and spacious.

The stunning view from the terrace sets the scene for a wonderful non touristy dining experience. Friendly and attentive staff ensured from start to finish, a meal to remember. Would happily eat there again and look forward to the next occasion. Avoid the clip joints and go straight to La Rocca!!!

I would have expected more to be fair. The food was a little bit pricey and the quality rather average. The meat was covered with too much oil and spices, but the tartare was amazing. The staff was professional but not friendly. They only mentioned that some dishes were not available right before taking the order, so this was not polite on their side. Also, they forgot some of the side dishes and only brought them when the dinner was over. At least they did not made us pay for this. The dinner entree + main course + wine was 35€ total each.
