One of our favourite places to eat is Ristorante del Sonno in La Villa. This part of Bagni di Lucca is one kilometre up river from Ponte a Serraglio. We like to walk up. It is a delightful stroll in the evening and trudging home helps to work off some of the calories.

I think the flags might represent all the languages the owner can speak.
they have a very fine pizza oven
The menu is quite extensive and it is never easy to decide which delicious dish to choose. I selected a prosciutto and gorgonzola pizza and I can report that it was great. The base was thin and crispy and the topping was perfect.
my delicious pizza
too delicious for words
The other dishes were excellent also, but not photogenic. However, the grilled vegetables looked very good.
Italians know how to grill a zucchini
We all fought over the caprese salad.
wouldn’t you fight over this???
I’m having the saltinbocca next time. It means jump in the mouth. It can jump in mine any time it wants to.
