About

Nestled along the scenic coast of Tirrenia in Tuscany, The Big Gulliver is a charming family‑run trattoria that has delighted guests since 1975. The restaurant’s story begins with uncle Giacobbe Nicola, who brought a love of travel and flavors to the seaside town, and it has continued under the care of his descendants, ensuring a warm, welcoming atmosphere for all. The menu lives up to that tradition with a wide selection of classic Italian courses: hearty risottos, rich pastas, and an extensive seafood platter featuring fresh catches from the Ligurian Sea. The pizza offerings are particularly celebrated, featuring hand‑made, wood‑fired creations such as the iconic Margherita and the signature “Famous Pizza,” all prepared with locally sourced ingredients. Whether you’re craving a comforting bowl of Minestrone or the signature Cacciucco, the kitchen delivers flavors that reflect both Mediterranean heritage and contemporary Italian culinary art. Visitors have praised the restaurant’s relaxed, family‑friendly setting, its attentive service, and the authentic taste of its dishes. With its seaside location, The Big Gulliver also offers a pleasant dining experience whether you sit indoors or enjoy the fresh sea breeze on the terrace. The restaurant’s enduring family ownership and its commitment to quality ingredients make it a must‑visit destination for anyone exploring Tuscany’s rich culinary landscape.
