L'anciüa Pesce Povero - Lucca

A corner of Genoa in Lucca. Small but welcoming place with a typically Ligurian atmosphere. The owner, a very nice and empathetic person, welcomes guests as a good hostess by verbally explaining the two fixed menus designed for customers. The first course at €35 consists of an appetizer of 4 small dishes, a first course to choose between two proposals, a second course consisting of fried anchovies, dessert of your choice, wine, coffee and coffee killer. The €25 menu is the same as the first but with only one main course to choose from, including fried anchovies. The first courses and the fried anchovies are really very good. Recommended for those who want to taste Ligurian cuisine at a truly accessible price.

The restaurant has been open for lunch on Sundays for some time. Despite my various reports it is still listed as closed. Having said that, I went to L'Anciuia for lunch today and was a little surprised that the choice was limited to two set menus. The first course was €25 and included a tasting of starters and a first or second course and a small dessert. There was also a menu for €35 with an extra course. The starters were good, especially the cod crostini with potatoes. The first courses were quite good while the fried anchovies were super. The small taste of homemade apple pie was also very good. What can I say in total: the food is good but I prefer when there is the possibility to choose between several dishes.
