La Locanda Del Giglio - MASSA

While having never eaten inside Del Giglio, it gets a five rating from me off the back of its fantastic/cheap take away pizzas and for the jewel in its crown Pane Arabo! Imagine a long, thin focaccia style bread filled with prosciutto crudo, tomatoes and salad ..... no need to imagine as these guys have it. For 8 euros, this sandwich can easily fill two people and is arguably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had.

We have been here for a family lunch. The restaurant is okay, the food is decently done and plenty, but we had a few issues. The service is rather poor: we repeatedly ran out of bread and water, and we had to chase the waitress a few times. Worse of all, there were vegetarians in the group: when we booked, we asked whether there were vegetarian options, and we were told that there were many options: however, when we got to the restaurant, we found out that this was not the case, at all: only a couple of first courses (a mushroom based one, not a real option, and a plain risotto, again not a real option), no main course. In the end, the vegetarians were forced to eat only bread and vegetables, rather a miserable meal.

This restaurant is fantastic as long as you go realising that it is a family run place with as near as home made cooking as you can get. My wife and I had the risotto frutti di mare and it was spectacular great portions and good efficient service. The bill at the end was very reasonable considering what we had. I would have no problem recommending this establishment to any good food eating people.

You eat very well and the quality and price are perfect
