Having said that, I would still make the drive to eat here. It was fantastic.Make sure to arrive a little before sundown so that you can enjoy a glass of wine as you watch the sun slip down behind the Tuscan hillside. Breathtaking. Some of the waitstaff come across a bit cold and unfriendly, but that doesn't deflect from the outstanding array of menu items. My husband and I would share an appetizer, pasta dish then a grilled meat and dessert, so as to get a nice selection each night. Looking back on our three week trip to Paris, Tuscany and Rome, this was thee best restaurant we dined at. I'm a great cook myself, big foodies, so this place was an absolute treat to have experienced. I believe they are closed on Sunday's, but be sure to check, just in case. The agriturismo that we stayed at, Fattoria Lavacchio is wonderful too. A wonderful vacation for sure.

Second time in two years and yet again a wonderful experience. This time we took our daughter who…read morewas studying abroad in Florence and her friends out for dinner.

Some…read moredishes were ok. while my meatballs were not fully cooked, the ground meat was raw/bloody inside. Filthy bathroom! Small place, nothing fancy. 1 star because there is nothing LOWER to rate this place!!! FLINSTONES ERA!!! We were getting ready to pay the bill and leave, when the owner noticed that I have not eaten the meatballs. This man who spoke English, insisted on wanting to know what was wrong with the meatballs, I said I do no eat raw/bloody uncooked meatballs. He started raising his voice very loud and stated that "that's the way they like the meatballs there and they have done it the same way over 100 years. FLINSTONES ERA!!! Other customers look scared at him yelling at us, which was a totally unacceptable behavior from this man. I stated, 'that was my preference to eat fully cook ground meat,". He continued raising his voice at all of us and said, he does not take the price off the dish off the bill, no matter what. Which we did not even ask for. Obviously, his only concern was the money, rather than offer to cook the meatballs until fully cooked and to behave in a professional and respectful manner, since he chooses to serve customers from all over the world where customer service skills are absolutely necessary and his behavior was unacceptable.

This place is insanely good! One of the best restaurants and wine bars in the area that is also…read moreopen consistently. So good that I went twice in 2 days. First day me and my buddy Brian went for an afternoon snack of some of the best charcuterie I think I've ever had. They source/make most of their food, including the cheese and meats from their nearby estate. The chianti we had (sangiovese and cab blend) was local, and very good and only €20 for the bottle. The espresso after the meal was on point and they give you a magical basket of various breads, olive oil from their farm and honey they make as well to go with the charcuterie board. Second day I came with my wife and our friends Alex and pat and we did lunch right. About 2 hours of just stuffing our faces and drinking a bottle of sparkling pinot Nero that was exquisite. We ordered burgers two which, they're known because again, the cattle are just over the hill and these were so good. I wish I ordered medium rare but I wasn't thinking. Still you could tell these are grass fed cows, the veggies on it were so bomb, and the bun was light and airy. Perfecto! We also got these lightly fried vegetables, a cold pesto pasta and these fried dough balls that come with made that morning mozzarella and prosciutto. My god, please make sure you order that, I think it was called coccalini. Anyway, now let's talk about that view...it's a postcard of Tuscany type of view and soak it in. The staff here is lovely, friendly and speak English. There's lots of seating indoors and outside and there's free wifi to get your Insta on because you gotta share these views and meal with friends, even if it's just virtually.

You can tell the pasta is made fresh ... I can still remember the texture ... So amazing. I also saw another table eating something delicious that we wanted to order. They look like meatballs but were actually delicious ricotta spinach balls with a little bit of red sauce. I loved it all and wish we could go back. Slightly challenging because they do not speak much English. But we were able to figure it out. If we return to Tuscany we will eat here again for sure. There's also a small meats/cheese grocery store attached if you want something to go.

Super local, recommended to my family by a local who knows her stuff. The waiters, although they didn't know English very well, worked with us Americans and we had the most amazing meal. We started with a plate of pecorino cheeses and a bowl of rustic and fresh asparagus soup. Wow. Then I had the best pasta dish of my life. A homemade fresh pasta with pesto, potatoes, and green beans. It was beyond amazing. My other companions had an onion souflee and the beautifully prepared house rabbit dish. To go along we had the house chianti. All in all fabulous, local, and well worth the trip.

Yes, I am used to American servers that cater a little more to everyone, but I expect a bit of engagement or appreciation for my 100€.

My family had dinner here while vacationing in the area. It was a very enjoyable experience…read more The place is surprisingly large inside. We had 12 in our party, and the place could have held well over 7 times that many. We arrived early on a Saturday evening and were a little lucky to get in without reservations. My wife had the proscuito pizza and I had the tortelli with the potato filling and both were really good. We ordered the fresh vegetable platter for an appetizer and the result was a little "rustic." We got large chunks of onions, fennel, celery, and carrots with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I would not recommend that. Service was great. The waitstaff were very helpful and patient with our lack of Italian language. The older man who seemed to run the place never smiled, but maybe he was having a bad day.
