Essenza In San Miniato - La Scala

I stopped by to grab my family some lunch to go and we liked it so much we went back for dinner. Dinner was amazing with a nice liter of wine, more meatballs…..me and my wife went the seafood route and it was all very lovely. The staff are also great. I recommend!! The only thing I would say is they have a “simple menu” if you just are walking by, but please realize they have a much larger and beautiful menu….very good. Thanks everyone

Very not professional behavior just experienced this afternoon. We live in Tuscany and do frequently trips with our mountain bikes. Then, usually we take a break and a Prosecco. In Tuscany the price range for a glass of prosecco at about 2 pm (before Aperitivo is between € 2.50 and € 4.40. Here we were quoted for € 12 for 2 glasses of prosecco, which would be ok, if it would have been a super nice brand. But: The bottle of prosecco is € 16 only, which is very ok. The tourist trap is that they quote € 6 per glass for a bottle with a value of € 16. Many German/American tourist just order a glass and are skrewed then. I did as the waitress if it 's possible, that a glass would cost € 6. She told me, yes, that 's correct, because the serve some Fingerfood for free. My remark was, that we haven 't got offered anything was reply by telling me, I should have asked for it. That 's just nonsens ana tourist trap. It 's a pity, as on the other had the restaurant is nice and should not need to use that kind of tricks. So we decided, not to not ther for dinner. NB: Always ask for the price, before you order.

A lovely spot spoiled by the most snotty and rude staff. Seemed very annoyed that we were spending money here.

Robbed, paid for table cloth, kiife, fork, bread apparently, 38e would have been, 50e for a Pilgrim on the road to Rome

Delicious food. Very generous portions, and free snacks. Friendly staff. A very lovely evening.
