About the restaurant
Welcome to the Downtown Kitchen. We have one goal in mind when we open our doors every day - "To do whatever it takes to create the best dining experience possible.' That means buying certified Angus beef, Ashley Farms chicken, New Zealand Spring lamb, dayboat fish and fresh local produce. We change our menus daily according to market and season availability. Our style of cooking is defined as simplicity at its best. We built the restaurant to elevate the guests' level of comfort. The bar, tables, and booths were custom-made by a local wood worker. And we searched the nation for unique works of Art to deck our walls. Music of Blues and Rock greats fill the air. Service is as important as the food. Our staff is sincere, knowledgeable and friendly. They hustle to deliver the best service around, yet take the time to remember your name and how you like your drink.Top review

About the restaurant
Benvenuti Amici!At Tuscany we are a scratch made kitchen. We make all of our sauces in house daily, and each dish is made fresh to order. Our passion is to keep our dishes as traditional and fresh as possible while being so far away from Italy. We source only the finest ingredients and use only wild caught seafood. Our deserts are made in house with the exception of the profiteroles which are imported from Italy.
We were voted Best Italian in the state of Georgia in 2023, and again in 2024 by the Georgia Business Journal and have won numerous local awards for many years running including best restaurant in Woodstock and Canton in 2024. We have an extensive wine list and are sourcing wines directly from family vineyards in Italy. We're known for our onsite parties and events, and we offer an amazing patio to watch the sunset.
You will see why we call a night with us the “Tuscany experience” Ambiance, great food, and impeccable service. Welcome to your Tuscan Villa in Woodstock.
