Best Fish Restaurants in Stia

Chiara and her husband extended the warmest of greetings as we entered this lovely , newly decorated restaurant. Both were so helpful in selecting a menu and before ordering wines by the bottle were given the chance to sample each of our “ shortlist”. From the amuse to our chosen three courses, the flavors and presentations were outstanding. We will definitely return on our next visit in the Spring.

We elected to order the “First Look” dinner for 2. It was fabulous but lots of food. The owner and his staff were very personable and attentive. There is not one negative thing to say about La Chicca. The restaurant recommendation came from Taste Florence tour and we definitely trust them as everyone suggestion was spot on.

Loved everything about this place. If you are lucky enough to have Guiseppe, the experience will be even better. Try the mussel soup (ask for red sauce) and the crab pasta.

WOW!!! We had reservations at another restaurant and when we arrived they told us that they closed a year ago. They use the space for cooking classes. I thought we got punked! So, we sat outside and look for another place to eat. I remember that Osteria del Tegolaio was on my list. So we booked immediately. Sometimes in life, mishaps turn out to be the best experiences. I can’t say enough about this gem!! It’s so quaint and homey. Our waiter, Steven, was very nice and accommodating. And the manager, Mario was incredible and so friendly. Ok, now let’s talk food…OMG!!! The food here was the best we ate in all of Italy!! It deserves an award for best restaurant. Each dish was presented so beautifully. We ate the spinach flan appetizer and it was soooooo delicious. For our main dishes, I had fusilli with a pumpkin cream sauce. Very light and tasted wonderful. My husband had the veal with truffles. This dish was insanely delicious. Mario surprised us with dessert. He said if we didn’t like it, we would t pay for it. LOL it was a cake baked in condensed milk with a chocolate & caramel sauce. Wowza!! We had a bottle of white wine that was also fantastic. So, forget the Instagram posts and go here! You won’t regret it!!!!! Compliments to the chef. And thanks to the wonderful staff for making our last meal in Italy so special!! ❤️🇮🇹❤️
