Ristorante Giro di Boa

Northwestern Tuscany


When a break from traditional meat-heavy Tuscan beckons, reserve a table on the pocket-sized piazza terrace at this Barga newbie. Chef Riccardo Orsucci turns his hand to tasty seafood and fish dishes in the kitchen, while son Stefano greets guests with style and panache front of house.

The lunchtime menu comprising a pasta primo such as spaghetti with prawns and courgettes, fritto misto di mare (mixed fish, battered and fried), water, wine and coffee is an outright bargain at €15.
