Pizzeria Toscana — Restaurant in Scotland

The one star is even too much, where to start well we ordered brussetta to start it was just chopped tomatoes put on shop bought garlic bread no onion basil salt pepper or olive oil not even balsamic to garnish the bread my husband had the chicken skewers woth sweet chilli dip, the dip was so cold it was unreal the chicken skewers were more like bought in chicken fingers with a stick poked in them. The main I had risotto pollo, what a joke that was far too salty, risotto rice very very over cooked it looked like the juice from tinned tomatoes used for the sauce no taste other than salt and not how a risotto should be. My husband had the tagliatelle came out wrapped in tin foil had even less taste than my so called risotto and less than 5 minutes of it being out of the foil it was cold pasta very over cooked again. This is not what you expect fr a SMALL business and not one that says its authentic itialian food would never ever recommend this place to anyone, as a chef I like to support local small businesses we needed up going to somewhere else to eat and I got an amazing risotto!!!

After the reply from the person below, can I just say as a CHEF for well over 20 years and being married to a chef I am fully aware of what food is over salted and what isn't. I have worked very small family run itialian places and I have been taught the correct way to make risotto, also yes I am as offered another meal but after the starter and then the over cooked, over salted risotto why woukd I take another option. Especially after seeing my husbands main course come out in tin foil, having been microwaved. I also have friends that are itialian and took lessons from them how to cook itialian food,i also am fully aware of how to store sauces and as a sweet chilli sauce doesn't need to be kept in a fridge there is no reason it should be as cold as it was. But then again after seeing the reply you give to others that say anything bad I am not surprised you have an attitude problem in regards complaint to my comments about the sub standard food you claim to be itialian when in fact even people in prison will be...

We recently dined at Pizzaria Toscana, and we had a fantastic experience. I ordered the Calzone, and my wife had the Pollo Pepe. Both dishes were delicious and exceeded our expectations.

The Calzone was perfectly baked with a nice crispy crust and a generous, tasty filling. My wife's Pollo Pepe was a standout too, with tender chicken and a flavorful, peppery sauce that added just the right amount of spice.

The service was another highlight. Despite being a small restaurant, the staff were quick and efficient, making sure we had everything we needed without any long waits. The cozy interior added to the charm, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

One thing to note is that only house wines are available by the glass, while other wines are available by the bottle. We didn't try the house wine, but it’s something to keep in mind if you prefer wine with your meal.

On top of the great food and service, the prices were quite reasonable, making it an excellent value for money. If you're in Elgin and looking for a great Italian meal, Pizzaria Toscana is definitely...

TL:DR - Served a vegetarian a meat pizza. Cannot recommend.

Ordered quattro stagioni, served a spagnola (chorizo and chicken). Not even sure how those two can be confused. Cannot recommend this place for a pizza if the basics can't be followed.

As it was, the quality of the "meat" was so poor it was not noticed until a slice was almost eaten. It was sent back and a Margherita pizza ordered because we couldn't trust them to get it right.

It meant that we both dined separately.

This is very, very bad if someone is allergic to meat (which one of us is, hence ordering vegetarian pizzas).

When it came to the bill, the pizza that was incorrect was not comped. We argued for this to be removed. If you're going to serve a vegetarian meat, the least you should do is apologise by way of waiving that mistake on the bill. It's embarrassing as a diner to have to bring mistakes to the attention as it is.

Service was decent, toilets average. Thankfully we won't be back in the area again and wouldn't return if we were.

Oh, and good luck if you're a...
