If it is classic Italian dining experience that you are looking for, then "Tuscana Pizzeria" should be your stop. Famously touted as one of the few restaurant in Chennai, where it is hard to have a bad meal, this swank diner by chef Willi and Vipin Sachdev took Italian food to new standards of excellence.
Chef Willi and his team conjures the spectacle of Italian culture , cuisine and color with his work of art - both on plate as well as palate .
From the minute you walk in through the front door, the whiff of herbs and spices catches your senses. To start with, we ordered warm mushroom BRUSCHETTA and FOCACCIA bread topped with roasted chicken, onion and sun dried tomato , that was cooked to perfection , melting in mouth with burst of flavors.
Tuscana prides itself on its wood-fired pizzas and wide range of pasta that can be customized to your taste. We tried mushroom filled pasta pockets MUSHROOM RAVIOLI which was absolutely delicious and filling. Our stomach rumbled with approval.
Finally we ordered the irresistible thin crust pizza, PATATE E BROCCOLI (veg) and POLLO ALL ORIENTALE (non-veg) which came along with unusual scrumptious toppings ensuring the ingenuity of Italian gourmet.
This exquisite fare was definitely incomplete without sweet indulgence of desserts. The "pick me up” TIRAMISU , Italian cooked cream PANNA COTTA and TORTA DI CIOCCOLATO DI FUSIONE ( the Italian version of Choco lava ) are bound to keep you longing for more .
VERDICT Amalgamated with the true essence of slavering everything that's Italian here is an experience that will be worth your...
Read moreVisited the KNK branch Tuscana. It serves wide variety of delectable and mouth-watering pizza, pasta and desserts.
What a lovely evening it was. Ambience is pretty good. Interiors of this place is beautifully done. Soothing and relaxed environment. Service is on point. Well informed and quite friendly. Now lets start the food journey. First, I tried the Garlic Bread with fresh mozzarella cheese..it was SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE. I am not really a big fan of salads but my friends who have already been there insisted on ordering it.. so we ordered the chef’s special Tuscana salad and I must admit it had good flavours and was YUM. Coming to the main course, we ordered the Aastha Indian Cheese Pizza. Their Pizza were absolutely stunning. It was fresh, crunchy and full of traditional paneer north style flavors.
Next in line was Arabiatta Pasta which was a treat to my tastebuds. Totally recommend all of these. Just perfectly. To end this amazing food journey on a sweet note I had mouth wateringly good Panna Cotta. This is the best dessert I've had in recent times. Overall I had an excellent experience over there. This place deserves my multiple visits in near future.

Read moreMy last visit to Tuscana was with my family on my birthday – I decided to avail a birthday discount offered by Vipin Sachdev. Though I’ve met him only once – the gesture had a personal touch and since I love Italian food, it wasn’t a tough choice. The food has always been excellent before, and this time was no different. I have to add, service was great too! The waiters were polite, patient and helpful. It was a late dinner, so we decided to skip the starters and go for the main course directly. We decided on the Chicken Pesto Pasta with mushrooms and the Chicken Ravioli in a Red sauce from the pasta selection. Both of which were really good, flavourful and filling! From the Pizzas we tried the Diavola. It was perfect – thin crust not too crisp/soggy, the marinara sauce had the right amount of tang and of course pepperoni! We were quite full and contemplating dessert at this point when I was happily surprised with a serving of Tiramisu with a candle in it! I’m a huge fan of Tiramisu and loved it! It was the perfect end to a very special dinner and will definitely keep me coming...
