Il Doretto - CECINA

Found this place about tripadvisor and was very pleased to see the evening meal after reading the good reviews. Once we arrived, we were greeted with the most unfortunate and acidic people I have ever met. I have never been sung and humiliated by a restaurant owner, and they and the chef were clearly annoyed that we were their first customer. we should have gone, but not just because we thought it was just because of the weather they were a little upset. when they went on at night, we realized that we were not welcome at all. the owner cried all the time, and even when we paid our overpriced meal, she cried to me before the other guests. Maybe she didn't like to have spoken with a milanese accented or that I looked surprised when she gave me the pasta with only vongole or that the antipasto microshaft tasted or that the tempura was soaked, though, drowns with oil. I will never come back here again and no one else. oh, and point because they accepted amex, which was the only good thing I can say.

I had only one meal here. the food was good. the service was the worst we ever had. the waitress was openly rude and hostile. it was euro for the bottle of water green salad and servings of garnelen (approx. a plate) we could not go fast enough. so a scandal that they are not welcome and friendly

Tuna tartar was not fresh! Arrived the chef and was RUDE, he required that we respond to him what is the problem with tartar, even if we were explaining that the smell is very bad he was continuously pushed us to agreed that it was...good!!!! Lucky if you won’t have issue with food , because if yes you will get a problem with a chef! Italy has other better restaurant with a very nice people working inside !!!

The food Is amazing, we took crude mare, pasta and second dish, and different deserts. Service was really nice. Highly recommend to everybody.

My wife and I follow chef Mirko since many years, we first met him when he was cooking for Da Andrea in Marina di Cecina. Mirko might look like a giant and can be a bit rough in attitude sometimes but he's a refined chef,...food- wine-lover. The series of antipasti is always fabulous and... a bargain. Mirko's primi are great too. Over the years Il Doretto s wine-list got better and better. The Champagne-selection is top-notch and the offer of white and reds now perfectly match natural and elegant cuisine, with a lot of bio(dynamic) producers being available. The terrace is lovely.
