"Trasferta di lavoro. Si arriva in Toscana di domenica pomeriggio. Altri colleghi arriveranno solo domani sera. Il problema è trovare un posticino (che abbia posto per mettere qualcosina tra i denti (anche sapendo che cenerai da solo ... E allora ti fai consigliare... Ti mandano in un posto proprio carino... Famoso per la pasta super fresca fatta tutta rigorosamente a mano... Lì ti accoglie Jacopo (non solo un cameriere estremamente simpatico (toscano verace e molto professionale (si vede che lavora con gusto che ti consiglia un assaggio di varie paste. Non provi nemmeno a sfogliare il menù: istintivamente ti fidi e ... Ok... si assaggia 'castagne, pepe rosa e noci ' accompagnate da 'burro e salvia come non li hai mai mangiati '.... Wow! Però li hai visti passare... Te ne hanno parlato: 'Spaghettoni al cinghiale '. Jacopo li chiede al mitico 'Ciccio ' proprio davanti a te (cucina e griglia sono a vista parlando di 'un assaggio ' ma Ciccio ti guarda sorridente e... Ti arriva un piattone colmo di felicità! Spettacolo! Mentre li gusti capisci che nel fondo di quel piatto resteranno sicuramente molti pezzi di cinghiale e sei pronto alla scarpetta, quando senti 'le vuoi due polentine fritte per scarpettare bene '?? Ahhhh... Il connubio perfetto!! Pensi di aver concluso felicemente la tua cena quando il tuo (ormai amico cameriere ti consiglia quello che definisce un piacevole ricordo per chiudere la cena: 'braciole di maiale FRITTE ' (sottotitolo: per tornare bambini con chips artigianali. Mentri divori le braciole pensi di scoppiare ma... ti porta (a sorpresa 4 ravioli (gli stessi del burro e salvia di prima ma FRITTI e con porcini... Ahhhhh. Non l 'ho detto, ma... 2 calici abbondanti di buon Chianti sono volati... Ti chiedono anche se vuoi il dolce, ma... Riesci (stranamente a resistere (nel dubbio, non ti fai nemmeno esporre la proposta, altrimenti sai bene che cederesti ancora! . Materie prima di livello altissimo, manipolate da veri maestri. Complimenti su tutta la linea! Incredibilmente è buono anche il caffè e poi... 'Ti piace il melone '? Liquore artigianale perfettamente equilibrato, senza esagerare di alcool ma... Piacevolissimo. Grazie davvero e... ancora complimenti!"

"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."
