An incredible vista!!!Unfortunately, on the night we went. The service was poor, we were told by three waiters it was their first day, and that the head maître d' was sick (not information that should be share with guests, but I am not a local). The service was extremely slow, not up to the standards of a restaurant like this. Our food came out between 30 minutes and an hour and a half after ordering. That is one meal came out after 30 minutes and one meal came 90 minutes after it was ordered. We were told that since we did not have reservations, we should expect such a service, premium service (all food arriving at the same time) is exclusive to people with reservations, however, we did notice guests that had reservations getting their own utensils and menus an a bit annoyed. Some of the food was very good, unfortunately, not all. One dish was described as Wildboar. It tasted, to us like beef, poor quality beef at that (good enough for Americans). The staff insisted that the meat was high quality wild-boar and we were not sophisticated enough to know the difference. (We are sure it was not boar) Please try it, I assume they're service is going to be much better than the night we dined, it was a pretty epic failure on the wait staff and kitchen. This place does have the most epic Tuscan view.

Tipp: Den leckeren Insalata di Farro bestellen, ein Salat mit einer Getreideart, die mit grünem Pesto angemacht ist.

For my lunch, I enjoyed Cinghiale in Umido (wild boar stew) and Verdure al Forno (baked mixed vegetables). The house red wine was fine. The restaurant itself was small but charming.

We ate here two nights out of the three we stayed in Castellina and loved both meals. The first night we got their fall seasonal special of tortelloni with truffles. The tortelloni are large and have ricotta spinach filling in a delicious cream truffle sauce. We also got the boar ragu papardelle which was rich and very tasty. For secondis we got the traditional tuscan stews: one of beef and one of boar. The meat was incredibly tender and tasty, with a great piece of polenta to go alongside. We got the desert sampler, which was also great. Both nights the total for the meal was very reasonable--and the basic glass of chianti classico was delicious.
