The story
Tucked away on Vicolo Bargilli in Cecina, Chicco Bistro has earned a 4.7-star reputation as a casual local spot for Italian fare. The tag “pasta” hints at its specialty, and indeed the kitchen draws on traditions from further north—specifically, the Parma region—to craft its menu.
In a review by Franchino Er Criminale, the bistro is described as serving “traditional Parma pasta,” with a standout dish of Tortelli alle Erbette. The creator awarded that tortelli an 8.5 out of 10, a strong endorsement for a humble but focused plate in this seaside town.

Chicco Bistro’s Tortelli alle erbette earns unanimous praise, with reviewers calling it a soulful, buttery triumph. The overall vibe is one of understated warmth, where simple ingredients sing with quiet confidence.
“I asked for typical Parma dishes and they made them for takeaway in a plastic plate for €10. The pasta seems the right thickness. They're good. Whether they make them or buy them, they're good. Butter and parmesan — what can I tell you. I'm trying to open one to show you the inside, it's nice and full. The portion is generous. The tortello is good. Simple dish, traditional, super good. Fair price. Tortello excellent. 8.5 out of 10.”
