Peperosa Ristorante Bistrò

Great food, service and location.

Absolutely the very best meal and service I've had this trip. Friendly and knowledgeable team and an excellent meal. Raw seafood platter to start was incredibly fresh and delicious and a great wine list to match with very reasonable prices to match the high calibre of food. So good in fact will return for my last meal in Italy tomorrow. Really can't reccomend it enough, terrific views as well

Great place with excellent quality, outstanding good food quality and great value for your money - go there and not in the tourist traps around and try the fish of the day

We had a perfect Christmas Eve dinner. Johnny, the sommelier, welcomed us warmly. We had a several dishes including amuse bouches and apertifs. The pasta for our children was excellent and we enjoyed our secondi plate. We appreciated all of the wine, amari and meal recommendations. Would go again for the high end service, wine, and food, even with our 8 and 10 YO kids in tow. Grazie mille!

The dishes were delicious and creative. I'm often disappointed with the quality to price ratio with upscale Italian restaurants, but the food was excellent and well presented. I tried some flavor combinations that were new to me, and I was pleasantly surprised, especially with the Agnolotti alla zucca, which had a sweet licorice-infused butter sauce matched with very strong Parmigiano Reggiano (60 month). I was skeptical because I'm often not a fan of anise-based flavors, but this worked extremely well.

A romantic dinner under in stars in the center of the piazza. The waitstaff was personable,friendly, and attentive and the food was well prepared and delicious

Great location, great food, great wine....don’t hesitate! Local, caring people, great advices and smiley people it makes such a difference!!!

Great situation in the square. Very good service and lovely food. Highly recommend.

very good food quality - great fisth and dessert

Amazing setting in a piazza that was once a Roman amphitheatre. It is a small menu of well cooked dishes, and a fabulous wine list. If you are fed up with tourist trap trattorias and want something better this is a great choice.

Stunning experience, location, service, food quality, food exposure, everything. Place you need to visit once being at Lucca!

Tutto al top come sempre

Previous reviews of Peperosa indicated that it would be very good but it was really excellent. Every course was better than the last, the raw seafood platter was delicious, just the right amount of each type and amazingly fresh. The pasta dishes were fabulous, a subtle mix of flavors. And there were frequent additions to the meal with little tidbits from the chef. Every course was explained by our server and we really enjoyed that. I highly recommend having a meal here.

Nothing was really tasteful. Expensive. Good service and environment.

Fantastique! Comment allier l’excellence des plats à l’excellence du service. Merci.

Excellent, creative, contemporary Tuscan cuisine, friendly and attentive service, great setting on Piazza del Anfiteatro. Very good value, too. What more can one ask for?

Lovely new venue and ambitious crew. Other reviews were mixed, but it seems they are getting their feet under them. Service was professional, dishes were delicious, well priced and beautifully presented. I am rooting for them! We will be back!

Super tasteful experience

Quality and “with a twist” food. The wine selection is superbe. Incredibly kind waiters. I’m definitely coming back and recommending it to friends.

Excellent restaurant with very knowledgeable and professional staff who are well trained,friendly and helpful. The food was first class as was the wine. Lovely setting and choice of indoors or outdoors.
