La Rocchetta - PIOMBINO

What awful people! Totally unwelcoming. Called in for a drink with my husband and after he ordered a beer the very rude waiter presented us with the bill before I could order mine, telling us they were closed. I apologised for not knowing this, even though the doors were open and plenty of staff behind the bar. I handed him a €20 for the beer to be snarled at and gestured no change, I then offered a card to be snarled at again because he didn’t have the card machine to hand. Definitely one to avoid.

I made a reservation on Sunday for lunch by the Fork . The place was absolutely packed by locals great sign ! . The staff was very very nice...they offered a glass of wine while they were setting my table . I had a seafood fried dish plus a couple of white wine glasses local one . The manager not sure if he was the owner was absolutely a gentleman. I liked so much the food that I returned a few days after but again the place was packed and I could not get a table this time. But I returned and got a tuna and vegetables grilled which were absolutely great. Again staff was very nice but this time I felt like a very familiar restaurant. This is a place to pick . Great food . Good prices . Nice view stay on the area protected by glasses ...I suppose in summer they may open it ....I will for sure return .

La Rocchetta was recommended by Eric and Renata the hosts of Villa San Rocco B&B and did not disappoint. We were greeted by Davido the owner who presented a tray of the seafood options available that day including fish, octopus and lobster (still kicking). The selected seafood was then incorporated into the menu options available cooked as is in a variety of styles, incorporated into a pasta sauce etc. We chose the lobster and it was delightful. Great views over Piombino harbour and the square which seems to host some sort of celebration or event each evening. Loved the restaurant, the staff and the food.

Sono andata ieri sera per la prima volta. il proprietario sa come farlo, ma soprattutto parla con conoscenza della causa. pesce fresco (dal mare grezzo agli spaghetti sl riccio,) piatti raffinati, porzioni giuste e atmosfera incantevole. ottima accoglienza e servizio. adatto sia per famiglie che per coppie. prezzi nella norma, chiaro che la qualità che si paga, ma ne vale la pena! Tornerò sicuramente!

Ottima qualità del cibo, il servizio nulla da ridisegnare e soprattutto la posizione! con vista sulla piazza bovio a Piombino....una delle più belle piazze d'Italia. il proprietario sempre presente e attento al cliente. raccomandato
