Osteria L'orciaia - BUCINE

This is a restaurant I have been visiting for over ten years. Its previous owner, Gino, made this place a must-go-to every time we stayed in the area. His son and daughter in law have taken over the reins with a passion and I was so happy to recently see that, despite the change over, the food has remained excellent and the service impeccable.

Many years ago, when Gino was still alife, a reasonably good restaurant, changing with the quality of the cook. Today son and heir Simone has turned it into a chaos, no regular opening times, therefore the menu not always available. You can never be sure whether the food which is available has been freshly coked or had been sitting in the frigidaire or deep-freezer since the last opening, whenever it was. You will now know ahead what quality of food you will get since you can never be sure whether it's the same cook like last time. The prices are outrageous given the quality of food. The open wine should be avoided. Bottled wine is expensive and your choice from the menu is often unavailable. I have been there often during Ginos lifetime and even then hardly ever met a local face from the neighborhood It's all tourists. Lately you would not see even them on the terrace.any longer .

Nice and quiet family- driven restaurant with an absolutely unforgettable stunning view from the top of the hills. Food is delicious. Everything through the pasta to olive oil is homemade! Have to try! Florentina steak was the best piece of meat I've ever eaten!

Amazing food but go for the owners. Perfect combination. Welcoming, warm, knowledgeable and as kind as can be. Look around if you like there are many places to eat but few make you feel like you are home.

Ristorante che si trova in una zona molto isolata, immerso nella natura.in una sera in cui c’erano solo quattro tavoli, abbiamo atteso un po’ troppo per essere serviti.i prodotti erano di ottima qualità ed anche il prezzo equilibrato, ma l’attesa è stata troppo lunga.
