"One year ago we celebrated a family member s birthday at Cascina Veja and had a wonderful meal. Most of the courses were good and the service was excellent. We returned this year to celebrate the same family member's birthday and what a huge disappointment. Only...one of the courses they served us was acceptable and that being the very first salumi plate. The second course was Russian salad made with raw carrots, raw potatoes and raw peas. The third course was a sausage and egg roll that was served right out of the microwave.... boiling hot and mushy. The fourth course was a flan of zucchini and mint with some sort of unidentifiable sauce.... once again served straight from the microwave and half of my flan was boiling hot and half was still frozen. For the next course we were offered spaghetti with porcini mushroom sauce but what we were served was pasta with no mushrooms in sight. Next we were served ravioli with pasta so thick it tasted like a dumpling and the filling tasted only of cloves. The meat course was supposedly Bocconcini di Vitello with roasted potatoes but what arrived were scraps of tough, chewy meat and rubbery, tasteless potatoes that must have been left over from last week. For dessert we opted for semifreddo with strawberries but what we were served was a solid frozen block of cream that was so hard we couldn't eat it. When we pointed this out to the server, she said Leave them on your plates for 10 minutes and they will soften up The quality and service had deteriorated so much in one year that we asked if there had been a change of management only to be told No, why do you ask An agriturismo that serves frozen food and uses microwaves does not deserve anybody's patronage. Never again."

"We happen with my family here by chance, after a visit to a playground nearby. Entering, you access a bar, but continuing you end up inside a discreetly large and well-conditioned room (see the heat of this day, personal advice, cover and cover your children in case, because the difference is several. We sit, bring us the menu (see photo and we are asked immediately if we want water. Reading the list of dishes, we remain surprised by the variety but also by the particular combinations. We decide to order: beat to the knife with trumpets and pistachio zucchini (see photo flan of zucchini and basil with fondue raschera tagliatelle in white for our daughter ravioli of aubergines and basil with flowers of pumpkin and saffron (see photo gnocchetti with fondue of Bra tendero (see photo 2 glasses of Traminer Arrive immediately the dish for the little one who eats of taste and in very soft On the arrival of appetizers, we remain shocked in a positive sense by the amount of raw meat in the dish, really appreciated as what seen that usually with a fork it ends. Very tasty meat, well seasoned, very compact and served with pistachios on top, raw trumpets (I have always eaten them cooked but raw they have their because , balsamic vinegar and sparkling tuna sauce. WOW! The good flan but passed in order after the joke. The 2 very good first ones, cooked to the right point, tasty condiments (I have not only understood whether the cream was used or not since there was not written and generous doses, especially regarding the gnocchetti! To follow we took 2 sweets: meligamisù bonet I must say that as far as I am not a lover of bonet, this was really good and very compact, while the meligamisù was a very great discovery both for me and for my partner! Perfect approach, they felt the ingredients distinctly and then the nice thing is that it was brought inside a tall glass! I count total of what I eat with the addition of a bottle of water glass (paid only 2€, which normally elsewhere we have always paid it no less than double : 60€ round round. We also took 2 coffees that kindly offered us. From our house it is distant as restaurant (1 hour but surely we will have way to go back to try the rest of the dishes too!!"
