"We were two families with kids staying in Pian Di Sco area for holiday and we were looking for a nice quit restaurant to have a dinner in. Villa Rigacci came recommended by our hosts and was close by with good reviews here on TripAdvisor. Called in at 5 pm for a reservation for 4 adults and 5 kids and we were accommodated with a table if we showed up early at 7 pm. The location was easy to find and the restaurant is located on the terrace of the Villa, which operates as a hotel as well. The Villa is located on a park style estate on the bottom of a mountain side, so quite beautiful surroundings. The reception is inside the villa and we were showed to a nice covered terrace overlooking the pool and surrounding landscape. When seated at the table we were served a welcome drink, prosecco, and a small bite. The servers were friendly yet not really in to explaining the menu or specials in details. We ordered our drinks being a bottle of local White and a Red wine and water along side our food order. The 4 adults decided to share 3 starters being Salmon Cappacio and Beef Capaccio and a plate of Mixed Grilled Vegetables. We also decided to share 2 primo dishes Risotto with fresh truffles and Ravioli with Fresh truffles, which unfortunately was served together with the antipasto, but the food was very good especially the salmon, and portion sizes generous. For main dishes we again decided to share 3 main dishes being 2 servings of beef filet with shaved cheese and a baked pork filet. Again the dishes where tasty yet the pork was a bit dry and portion sizes where below expectations, however it left room for desserts. For dessert we ordered espressos along cheese cake, chocolate mousse, creme Brûlée and a half frozen ice cream, which were all shared. Personally I was a bit disappointed with the cheese cake and chocolate mousse, however the rest of the party was quite satisfied. For me the winner was the half frozen ice cream, but it was quite sweet and sugary though. The children had various pasta dishes and ice cream for dessert, so nothing noticeable, but the staff was helpful customising the dishes for the picky young ones. The place is not really a family restaurant but the 5 kids had a blast playing at the grounds of the large estate and the staff were quite patient around the kids. The service level from the servers was ok but a bit below expectation considering the status of the venue. The total bill were just below 300 Euro including 3 bottles of wine and all so we felt it was fairly good value for money. We had a good evening there, nothing legendary at all, but a healthy 4 out of 5."
