Frommer's Review

Around a column surviving from the medieval church that once stood here, locals gather to enjoy authentic Pisan home cooking. You can get away with a full meal, including wine, for under 20€ ($26), opening with something like brachette alla renaiaola (an antique Pisan dish consisting of large pasta squares in a purée of turnip greens and smoked fish) or tagliatelle alla scarpara (in a sausage ragù). The secondi are simple and straightforward: baccalà alla livornese (salt cod with tomatoes) or maiale arrosto (thinly sliced roast pork), with which you can order fried polenta slices or ultra-Pisan ceci (garbanzo) beans.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
