L'Ottavo Vizio StreetFood / FoodPorn Gourmet — Restaurant in Unione dei comuni della Versilia

We recently visited this street food spot in a bustling tourist area, where we tried the fried seafood mix and seafood salad. Unfortunately, both dishes were disappointing.

The fried seafood mix, while crispy, was bland and lacked the seasoning needed to enhance the natural flavors of the seafood. The seafood salad was particularly disappointing; it was half-cooked, leaving the seafood chewy and unappetizing. Additionally, the salad had a bitter taste that overpowered the dish.

This spot caters more to tourists looking for convenience rather than genuine culinary experiences. Although the location is convenient and the atmosphere lively, the overall experience fell short of...

I went in search of this kiosk drawn by the countless positive reviews. I can absolutely confirm what has been said positively about the food and the friendliness of the owners.

The place is essentially an outdoor seating area with an open kitchen and counter, which I didn’t have the pleasure of trying as I opted for takeout.

The top-notch flatbreads with interesting and positively satisfying combinations. Price is in line with what’s offered, definitely slightly higher than the average street food, but I personally appreciate the idea of paying a bit more when the offering is a step above the usual.

A word of advice to fellow visitors (especially when reading negative reviews): the concept of gourmet applies to the culinary offering; the fact that it extends to service and location is more of an issue for the reviewers than those providing the experience.

I will definitely be back, thanks!

Sono andato alla ricerca di questo chiosco attirato dalle innumerevoli recensioni positive.

Posso assolutamente confermare quanto espresso di positivo in termini di cibo e gentilezza dei titolari.

Il locale è di fatto un dehor esterno con cucina e bancone a vista che non ho avuto il piacere di provare in quanto mi sono avvalso del servizio di asporto.

Avviso ai naviganti (specialmente leggendo le recensioni negative): il concetto di gourmet si applica alla proposta culinaria, il fatto che venga allagato a servizio e location è più un problema di chi scrive piuttosto di chi propone.

Tornerò...

This is my first review ever, I wish I could give 0 stars. I have been in Italy several times but was never treated this rude. I arrived 20 min. before closure and asked if take away was possible. I was told to wait so I waited for more than 10 minutes in the scorching heat to be told that service was finished and I could not order anything by a very arrogant chauvinistic man. I arrived immediately after an Italian couple who were served perfectly, so I guess they only...
