Castelnuovo di Magra has a very fine restaurant called Trattoria Armanda located in Piazza Garibaldi on the southern end of town. The ruins of the castle are on the opposite end of town, as you can see in the map.

You can make reservations online for the Trattoria Armanda, and they're recommended.

Castelnuovo di Magra is a great town to stroll around in. Visit the Enoteca for a glass of wine (in the garden if the weather is nice), then go to the trattoria for a meal.
