Eaté: Romantic Restaurant Sea Views in Tuscany

Eaté is our romantic restaurant in Tuscany situated right by the water. To enjoy the best traditional Tuscan cuisine, our Chef and his team have created a fine-dining restaurant for those who enjoy exploring culinary experimentation and zero-kilometre products. To complete the food and wine experience, a careful selection of fine wines, both local and international, has been expertly paired with our food.

The philosophy, which guides us, is based on the simplicity and authenticity applied to the dishes, both seafood and meat-based, typical of our region, which we aspire to reinvent, transforming them into an explosion of innovative taste, yet one that is still genuine and respectful of its origins.

One of the most romantic restaurants in Tuscany

The best dishes from the Maremma tradition are proposed to guests at Eaté, the gourmet restaurant by the sea in Tuscany.

Every dish starts with a search for and selection of the highest quality raw materials. The ingredients, carefully selected from independent local producers, are then skilfully blended and passionately prepared. The end result are dishes that use traditional, modernised recipes to rediscover the ancient flavours of yesteryear from a contemporary perspective.

Colours, flavours, and the search for different textures thus come together to create entirely new and original dishes, yet which are rooted in the purest tradition. All this in an exclusive location, with seating for only 30 guests, as part of a unique culinary experience.

Viale Italia, 315 – Follonica
Dinner: 19.30 – 21.30

Closed on Monday.

Executive chefs

Nazareno Dodi, class of 1986 and Alessandra Zacchei, class of 1987, began taking their first steps in the kitchen at the age of fourteen, in their respective home areas of Piacenza and Rome.

Their paths crossed in Venice, the most romantic city in Italy! From there on, they decided to work together and took jobs in a luxury hotel nestled in the Tuscan vineyards, initially as chefs de partie, and later with Alessandra filling the role of Chef, and Nazareno of Pastry Chef and Sous-Chef; mentored by the two Michelin-star chef, Francesco Bracali.

Using their visionary fascination for the art of cooking, they create dishes that take their cue from the regional roots of Italian cuisine, but reinterpreted in a modern key. By injecting a few touches of creativity, they seek to stimulate all 5 senses with each course and treat the guest to a pleasurable culinary experience.

Chef Dodi: My style of cooking consists of ingredients with distinct, contrasting flavours that when combined create a balanced taste.

Chef Zacchei: My style of cooking is rooted in traditions of typical dishes, reinterpreted in a modern key to make them current, but without running the risk of losing their meaning.

The surf and turf menu

For the Eaté Restaurant, the Chef recounts, through his fish and meat dishes, all the Tuscan tradition and his life experiences: a simple cuisine, consisting of few carefully combined ingredients which will conjure up pleasant memories and sensations while paying careful attention to the nutritional values and the lightness of the dishes.
