"Locale tipico della Lunigiana nel cuore delle montagne, carattestiche ricette fatte con competenza e amore. Il cuoco e titolare cucina piatti unici a regola d'arte. Raggiungibile in venti minuti dall'uscita dell'autostrada Pontremoli, e a 1 ora dalle Cinque Terre e le cave di Carrara e Colonnata. Cucina che riporta a sapori antichi e semplici, con una nota di particolarità vista la enorme varietà di portate tipiche unicamente della Terra Lunigiana, accompagnate da vini da Tavola piacevoli e soddisfacenti. Consigliata vivamente..."

"PERSONE VERE E SPONTANEE Oltre ad aver consumato i buoni prodotti tipici del luogo, l’aspetto ancor più apprezzato è stato quello di conoscere la signora Anna Maria ed il signor Tiziano, che con la loro compagnia ci hanno fatto trascorrere un momento conviviale molto gradevole. Proprio per questo li ringrazio con sincera stima e ammirazione, con la speranza di poterli incontrare nuovamente ed approfondire il discorso sui “Canti di Maggio” tradizionali. Un abbraccio dalla Sardegna."

"Sono stata al ristorante più di una volta e devo dire che è un'ambiente che fa sentire come in altri tempi: dall'aspetto senza pretese, ma accogliente. Non aspettatevi grandi scelte, ma tutto ciò che è offerto, è genuino e casereccio. Se siete fortunati c'è anche l'agnello di Zeri o della Garfagnana. Il costo poi del pranzo è tutta una sorpresa in positivo. Io darei anche di più, merita. Se siete cittadini, abituati ai ritmi di città, non andateci. La gestione..."

"La recensione è esclusivamente per il servizio di ristorazione. Cucina tipica lunigiana, porzioni abbondanti e molto gustose. I dolci sono artigianali e molto saporiti. Consiglio il caffettone a fine pasto. Titolare alla mano e simpatico. Ci torneremo"
