Officina della Bistecca Reviews from The Last Year
Meatlovers everywhere, gathercaround
Excellent food, excellent people. So much food and wine that it’s impossible to eat them all. Skoer lovely staff, and Dario himself of course. The whole experience is worth it.
Not very well
After seeing various videos we booked with the Panzanese menu on the advice of a girl during the booking process. Arriving around 12 we were welcomed with a glass of red wine and croutons with the famous "Chianti butter" which is a truly delicious spreadable lard. Around 1pm they placed us at a convivial table under a veranda (we were thinking of having lunch in front of the brazier 😞) and fortunately we ended up next to friendly people. In front of us a cup of red wine and a tureen full of fresh vegetables to make a dip with extra virgin olive oil. The first course was the Chianti Crudo or a beef tartare which I found divine, absolutely the best dish of the lunch. The second course was the Carpaccio di Culo which is nothing more than a kind of roasbeff, good but a little dry. Then came the main course, the Bistecca Panzanese. I'm Tuscan and you can't call me Steak that stuff. It is a boneless cut of meat and it was also overcooked. I wanted to hear the sniper's Florentine and not that cut, anything but noble. Excellent side dish cannellini beans. Ditto for the oil cake and the mocha coffee.
Extraordinarily typical and succulent
Typical and very warm welcome by the owner of the place. After a welcome drink we were seated upstairs for the meal. Crudités 2 raw meats (tartare and carpaccio) and 2 tender and tasty cooked meats accompanied by white beans. Unlimited bottle of Chianti as well as a carafe of still water and a carafe of sparkling coffee water and coffee pusher, all for €30 per person! Extraordinary. Highly recommended.
I have the fat!!!
For those who like meat this place is ideal. Flab cooked directly in the room...explanation of the type of meat. The brazier is very good... perfect meat and a wonderful Chianti butter to spread on the bread. Convivial place with tables
Optimal!!! To try!!!
We went to this restaurant for lunch… Pleasant aperitif offered in the butcher's shop with Chianti wine and bruschetta with homemade lard 😍, truly pleasant! Had lunch at the table with other people, eating excellent and freshly cooked meat in a beautiful open barbecue, the guys who served us even stopped by more than once to give us other portions, very kind and polite guys! Too bad we didn't manage to catch Cecchini because it would have really been the 🔝!!! I recommend it and would go back immediately! Ate a lot of quality food... and spent very little! Thanks for the wonderful experience 😍
Fat galore
I was struck by the atmosphere of conviviality that is created in the restaurant during dinner, the staff is very kind and helpful. The meat is the star of the menu, accompanied by simple dishes of peasant cuisine: pinzimonio, beans and the legendary patara with Chianti butter! Price centered for quality.
Great experience
Who would expect such a place on this tiny faraway Chianti village? We liked the concept explained by Dario Cecchini : all the animal parts should be used out of respect for it. So you need to choose one of the predetermined menus where the cuts are predefined. Menus are of different sizes. Your table will be situated in the room of the chosen menu this is why all the table ahould pick the same menu and when you book they ask you which menu you want. If you don't know, you can pass by the butcheria facing the restaurant to obtain the needed info and then decide. The meat, cooked in olive oil, was very good, So were the beans and the olive oil cake that looks home made. The service was slow though but i definitely recommend this place, it's worth the detour.
Exceptional meat
Incredible place, high quality meat, everything really delicious. Exceptional quality-price
A certainty
everything perfect, service with young and always smiling guys, fabulous meat cooked to perfection, really reasonable price. We will be back.
Carne Diem!
Pace yourself. Dario Cecchini offers you a lot of food. A lot of meat and tasty meat and other wonderous things but if you want to be able to even be able to taste the Bistecca della Fiorentina then pace yourself. I digress. Came to dinner with Family the dinner reservations need to be done in advance by email and if you're able take an 8pm one. The serving is all the meat you can eat and you start with tartar and finish with Florentine Steak. You come for your reservation at 8, maybe 10 minutes before Dario is meeting you across the street at his Antica Macelleria CECCHINI with bread and Lardo, what is Lardo, it is pig fat with salt and spices made into a spread. Same you can find at the table at the table you can find a bottle of wine some bread, lardo and veggies. And then the meating starts. In front of you there is a paper napkin with a picture of the cow, so when you are served the next course they can tell you which part of the cow it came from, starts with Tartare and ends with Florentine steak and in between there is Ribeye, etc, etc, etc..... So Carne Diem diners!

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |

Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
|
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
|
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
|
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Unsold listings bug?
Idk if this is related to the unsold listing % rule but I have listed 6 reservations and sold 5 of them and my unsold listing percentage is ~45%. For some reason the unsold listings have not been converted into sold ones. Does this happen only after the payment is released following the booking or is it an issue that needs to be addressed?

Give the best answerHonest review of AT and advice to new joiners
Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
After putting in about 40 hours of work, I’ve made about $750 sale on this platform but gotten paid $0. Take this with a grain of salt.
Fraud
I believe this site to be a fraud. I paid $158 to get a reservation. Now they want my SS # and other private details in order to supposedly repay me.

Hello All,
I don’t know what else to do as I can’t transfer my cleared funds to my bank account. Customer support is close to non existing and not helpful. How can we keep selling here if we can’t withdraw what we have worked for. They say I have to wait 180 days. This is ridiculous!

Give the best answerPayout limits? Have 1k…
Am confused about the payout restrictions. Have nearly $1k sitting, wanted to withdraw some and am surprised to see I can only withdraw $50. If i have to do this everyday I’ll end up paying over $90 in fees just for withdrawing via ACH which doesn’t make much sense to me. Have opened a ticket regarding this, but any input or advice would be appreciated

Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch

I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.

Give the best answerQuestion about postpaid listings for prepaid bookings
I have a prepaid reservation, but I'm allowed to transfer that reservation to others for a price that I set (up to the total price I paid).
For selling POSTPAID reservations, do I charge the buyer the full amount of the reservation when transferring? And then the buyer pays something on top of that (which is what is listed in the AppointmentTrader listing?)
Major Issue for Seller
My money is being held hostage! Can you please remove my refund medal as I am below the 11% threshold and should be able to withdraw my full daily amount now? I have been teying for a long time to get a reply on this. Major issue for people looking to do good/right like you ask and make positive sales. Being able to access earned revenue is critical and not getting any reply is very concerning for your sellers. Lot of other people having the same issue. Once below the threshold you should auto remove the warning medals.
