I again had tagliatelle as that is the food of the gods, this time in a porcine and cream sauce. Wonderful Umbrian wine and focaccia. My daughter had a four cheese pizza which was fun as we couldn't tell what the cheeses were initially. The yummy was in the tasting! Worth the go and walk that town - it's worth it!

Cute family-friendly restaurant in the small hill-town of Pallazone. We sat in the garden which was…read moregreat for our kids as there was a slide, see-saw, swings.

It wasn't a gastronomical experience, but a nice, budget restaurant with good, decent food.

And the Tuscany cheese was like nothing I've tried, YUM! Mussels were best I've ever had in my life; not briny, clean simple lemon oil, tasted to perfection. Love that you can see the clean kitchen and chefs at work, and overall very clean vibe. Highly recommend to seafood lovers.

For antipasti we ordered the cheese with the radicchio , walnuts, and apples. This was really yummy. For our primi we ordered the local pasta with tomato and garlic.

After a few spritzes (15 euro each), we split an osso buco raviolo with seared fois gras and truffle flakes which was delicious and filling. We were hunkering for something other than pasta, pizza or steak, so had the delicious hamburger with pecorino cheese, served perfectly rare (20). It came with nice French fries and hit the spot. We were seated next to the owner, a pleasant New Yorker with the cutest dachound Julietta. The restaurant is a bit more expensive than the trattorias but well worth it.

Everyone will tell you to order the burger here, and they're absolutely right. Surprisingly, the…read morebest burger I've ever eaten was the Bandita Burger at this Pienza restaurant. While the beef patty itself is exceptional, what elevates this dish is the generous layer of melted pecorino cheese on top. The truffle butter pasta is equally outstanding. The pasta tastes unmistakably fresh and handmade, with rich truffle butter coating every strand perfectly. Together, these two dishes easily satisfy two diners, especially since the burger comes with a side of fries. La Bandita Townhouse is a must-visit when in Pienza. Just remember to make a reservation in advance, particularly for dinner service.

Yes, there is no hurry -- but that's true anywhere in Italy, especially in the picturesque town of CdP. And the specials are great -- I ate the farrow salad whenever it was available, and kids devoured the special fries like they were going out of town. A simple spaghetti cooked specially by the owners for us using pomodoro sauce and some "Indian spices" they borrowed from us, is the best spaghetti I have ever eaten.... And late night sitting under the cozy awning, sipping wine while shameless hogging the wifi / watching the Olympics, will be one of my abiding memories of one of the most pleasant vacations I've had...
