The restaurant, which holds over 500 people, is made up of three large dining rooms and has been managed by family Ancillotti. Since 1849 the family Ancillotti has ensured that traditional cuisine of Tuscany was brought back to life in each centuries-old recipe. The restaurant is distinguished for its fish specialities based on local fresh fish from the Argentario’s area. |

| In
fact, in the first years of 1900 the grandfather "Alcide" began to cook
a fish speciality called "cacciucco" and bring fish in Poggibonsi. But
it was Maria Ancillotti the person, who, following her father's
suggestions and spending her life in the kitchen, traced with great
determination both the development and the success of the restaurant. In 1968 she was awarded the first prize "Cuoco d'oro" (the golden chef) for her recipe "sogliola alla vernaccia"(sole in vernaccia white wine). She also received many other awards for her indefatigable work and complete dedication to the art of cooking. Family Ancillotti is an extended family and the grand-daughters with other relatives manage the restaurant with great dedication and with the consciousness that they are part of a tradition. That is why the Alcide's dishes are still nowadays simple and genuine and keep alive the centuries-old flavours and Tuscan colours. |
