ordered the pomodoro and basil pasta and it was a microwaveable box... but it was suprisingly the best pasta i've had in viareggio. Although, the bread they have out on display is very stale i do not recommend

Capitata per caso durante un viaggio, devo dire che sono capitata bene e ci sono andata per due sere di fila. Ottimo aperitivo, con stuzzichini caldi. Gestori molto simpatici, soprattutto la ragazza

Avevo voglia di un tè ma in un posto tranquillo e meno "fazioso" per cui mi sono recata al G&G non ho trovato il proprietario e li per li sono rimasta delusa perché era una persona disponibile gentile e sorridente, ma poi con i nuovi gestori mi sono trovata bene anche loro gentili e disponibili con lo stesso metodo dell'ex proprietario di farti stare in tranquillità al tavolo e senza fare pagare il servizio.

What a gem!! Forget the overpriced beach restaurants for lunch or dinner. Come here it’s so reasonably priced, delicious and a pleasure! I had the risotto gamberi and I was licking the plate! The caprese salad was fresh and delicious. And the staff is so nice and eager to please! We’re planning on coming back tomorrow!
