La Magnolia
Culinary temptations in Lucca’s Forte dei Marmi



Preparing dishes only with ingredients obtained from local suppliers and producers, La Magnolia in Forte dei Marmi focuses on traditional specialities with a signature twist. The restaurant’s romantic poolside location on a shady terrace at Hotel Byron, a Tuscan seaside villa, is matched perfectly by a menu that highlights fresh seafood. The restaurant’s understated elegance is further accented by an extensive wine list that spoils guests with the finest local selections. Hotel Byron also offers gastronomic holidays with overnight stays.
