La Carabaccia

I really need to write a review for this place because it’s one of the best place in town where you can eat real traditional food.
Their dishes are generous and really tasty, the sweets that are displayed right next to the bar at the entrance are all homemade and delicious (I would recommend the chocolate salami, panna cotta and ‘torta della nonna’ (grandmother cake)).
There it’s like a ‘all you can eat’ because I promise you that you will be so full at the end of the meal that you will be sad at the same time because can’t eat anymore. Appetizer are big and delicious. A mix of salami, prosciutto and cheeses served with a big wood dish (il tagliere) will drive you crazy.
After that, I recommend some veggie soup if you wanna stay light or a pasta dish with local sauce if you wanna be competitive.
Speaking about wine, I would recommend the house’s, which comes from the hills around Volterra (don’t forget that your in Tuscany, the reign of wine!!). It’s cheap and so good!
Lastly, don’t hesitate when you walk in front of the door. Just walk in and you will never regret it. The atmosphere is warm and cozy and the place is filled with old-​fashion stuff that make the place even more typical.
Oh, by the way.
I was born and raised in Volterra, and I moved to the US almost 2 years ago.
I ate there almost once every 10 days, I tried all those dishes and I’ve never walked out unsatisfied.
La Carabaccia is one of the places that I really miss.
Trust me. Do you want to try and enjoy our typical dishes?
