La Brusketta - LUCCA

We had Decent salads and wine but nothing special. Of course the people show on the piazza was entertaining as it always is.

We had a cocktail for aperitif, as starter a plate with a mixture of cheeses and meat to share, and then a tagliata with salad and oven baked potatoes with a Brunello, and coffee/tee to end. The food was definitely ok, and the drinks fair. The service was mixed: one waitress hardly spoke some English, but fortunately the second waitress was fluent in English and French, and very friendly. The price is what you expect in the touristic centre of Lucca: we paid 140 €.

The restaurant enjoys excellent location but does not match up in quality. Warm wine, menu items not available (maybe scale down the menu? , forgettable food. And in the age of Covid, better for the host not to touch guests or be upset when they don't want to shake hands on departure.

Sincerely, we did not think we could find so much quality in such a touristic place. the richness and goto of seemingly simple dishes is enhanced as I probably never tried before. Congratulations to all!

Is the classic tourist restaurant but in the amphitheatre square it is difficult to find a good restaurant and they are all similar. but all in all the food is good and friendly staff, prices altini (but that in the whole square).
