6/10I assume they have to hire mire staff as the requests from the clients are many and the staff are outnumbered. I have to admit that even if they are few, all of the waiters are very polite and friendly. To be tipped surely as they deserve it. The first course was good really, but I was disappointed with the second course so I had to send it back and have another forst course! Lol.

7/10We took advantage of the discount to splurge on truffle dishes, and they were just OK. (maybe because they were out of season (September) or from last year...?) The local typical "tonno" antipasto (which is actually pork that looks like tuna) was really good, though, and I appreciated the amount of salad and veggies it came with, which can be hard to come by. No English menu, but it's so extensive, you can basically have any combination of pasta and sauce and any typical main dish that you want.

10/10Staff were helpful and efficient. A large choice of menu including many traditional dishes. We had a ravioli with beef and porchini sauce and a tagliatelle amatriciana both being absolutely delicious. This was followed by a chicken florentine which was brilliant - a half chicken in a delicious kale and bean sauce. New potatoes completed the meal. I would highly recommend this eating establishment.

10/10Fantastic place in the amazing old part of Lucca. Food really tasty and good, staff very nice, welcoming and friendly. I strongly recommend it if you want to taste Tuscany speciality based on a wide range of slow cooked meats, good wines etc etc

6.5/10The food at Osteria del Bastian was okay, they put a bit to much truffle, but over all it was good and tasty. But the surroundings and the staff was absolutely not okay.

10/10Tons of good quality food and nice atmosphere. Only a few vegetarian options: I tried the tartufo tagliatelle and they were simply amazing. There is a cheese platter as well. Worth the price.

8.5/10Very large menu with lots of different options from the region. Price seemed a bit high for the quality but luckily we had a discount through The Fork. Overall good food but not the best in Lucca. Cocktails were 7€ and very large so great value for money!

8.5/10Picturesque restaurant in the heart of beautiful Lucca. We were a group of six and they placed us in a room detached from the main body, so it felt quite calm and private. Yet we were not forgotten, the service was prompt, efficient and friendly. They have a very extensive menu. We recommend.mend that you still k to the traditional local dishes. Overall, a pleasant experience.

8.5/10Great place in the heart of Lucca. We really enjoyed the location, despite the very warm weather the restaurant was very well equipped and we had a great stay outdoor! Food was good and the price was average. Service was rather fast and staff was very nice. Reccomended!

8/10Without the 50% discount the prices here are insanely high. A nice venue, good portions but 2,50€ for coperto, 2,50€ per bottle of water and no house wine make the bill wery steep from the beginning. Without the 50% off I wouldn't have gone there. Good food but kind of a ripoff...
