    Wonderful. Everything was perfect. Great menu. Superb wine list. Excellent service. Food was prepared perfectly and flavors were memorable. Dinner was paced well and we never felt rushed. Dinner in Montalcino is special and Re di Macchia makes it exceptional. Don't miss dining here!!

    Absolutely amazing! More details to come following end of holiday... The wine pourer at poggio antico recommended two restaurants in montalcino. He said one was more heavy typical Tuscan, and the other was lighter. Of course we chose the more tasty one and ended up here! The host which seats you is actually the owner! He seems to be the one which coordinates the wine menu while his wife is in charge of the food. We got the recommended tasting menu which comes with an app, two mains, and a dessert along with some of the handmade pastas. Everything was amazing! We each had our own favorites.

    While the atmosphere is "ok", by this I simply mean being inside (while the town of Montalcino has some of the best views of the Italian countryside), the food here might have been the best we have had so far in all of italy. Every part of the meal was amazing. Spinach pudding with pecorino cheese was absolutely amazing, while the eggplant parm and mushroom lasagna were exquisite. When I asked for something off the menu (grilled vegetables with warm pecorino cheese on top), nothing was a problem. My wife doesn't even eat Tira Misu, but she ordered it anyway and we both absolutely loved it. We'll never find food like this in the US... sigh...

    We loved the restaurant so much we ate there twice within three days! It's such a cute little romantic spot with great food. Be sure to make reservations because there are not a lot of places to sit and it is always full! The owner is a delightful man who is so kind and speaks very good English. Some of our favorites include the incredible eggplant parmesan, the Tuscan style steak (delicious!) and the braised beef. I'm pretty sure you can't go wrong with anything you order here. We can't wait to go back!! ---------------------- Abbiamo adorato il ristorante così tanto che abbiamo mangiato lì due volte entro tre giorni! È un posto così carino e romantico con ottimo cibo. Assicurati di prenotare perché non ci sono molti posti dove sedersi ed è sempre pieno! Il proprietario è un uomo delizioso che è così gentile e parla un ottimo inglese. Alcuni dei nostri preferiti includono l'incredibile parmigiano di melanzane, la bistecca alla toscana (deliziosa!) E il brasato di manzo. Sono abbastanza sicuro che non puoi sbagliare con qualsiasi cosa ordini qui. Non vediamo l'ora di tornarci !!

    So far the best meal in our travels through Italy. Small, quaint with expertly prepared cuisine. Definitely a must if you are in Montalcino

    Awesome meal. We went with the tasting menu and it was great and reasonable. Make a reservation, as you would expect in Italy.

    In short: this place is the truest definition of a tourist trap. With such *incredible* places to…read moredine in Montalcino, please don't do yourself the disservice of eating here. We came to Montalcino on our honeymoon. The incredible weather and the fresh Tuscan air is magnificent. As we made our rounds about the town, we came across Alle Logge after numerous positive reviews and even local recommendations. The location of the restaurant was perfect, but it was not enough to counteract the dismal service, low-quality of food, awful wine, and terrible bookkeeping. The server was only semi attentive to our needs. The wine was brought with bugs in it and when we asked for it to be exchanged, we were given a different, bad tasting wine and told it was the same one we received earlier (it was most definitely not). The pasta was flavorless and mediocre at best. And finally, the restaurant manager incorrectly tallied our bill and tried to overcharge. This is a restaurant that knows it will continue to get crowds of tourists and doesn't bother to take any pride in its craft. Overall a horrible experience, please spend your money elsewhere.

    Just simply wow! I definitely was not expecting much from a resto in the middle of a touristy town…read more We chose this place simply because of a super cozy outside setting in the middle of a square. I am so glad we did! Outside you had about 15 tables and the wait was about 10-15 min for two. Unlike most slow paced spots in Italy here two waiters were running around non-stop making sure everyone is attended to - smiling along and making helpful suggestions. Menu was a delight - but that's nothing new for Tuscany. However, food was superb! I know it is hard to compare cold cuts, cheeses, pastas and secondis in this part of the world where everything is fresh and delicious. But cacio e pepe I had here was the best one I tried during our two week stay. The cold cuts board was also wonderful and quite generous. Selection of wines was plentiful and when I asked for a recommendation I really appreciated that the waiter did not simply go for the most expensive top of the list. Overall, wonderful spot with the most attentive staff.

One would think a small restaurant next to the castle of the famous Tuscan hill town would be a tourist trap. However, our host at our hotel, Cristina, told us to go because she also makes the pasta for this place amongst others. She was so right, Osteria di Porta Al Cassero is amazing. We had chickpea soup that tasted like heaven. Fresh bread, handmade pasta with black truffle and some great Brunello to wash it down. It was filled with locals who were all festive and enjoying life. Who wouldn't living in Montalcino? This was one of our favorite meals. Basic, healthy, Tuscan, glorious.

The chickpea soup was a good, but there could have been more spices. Service was typical of Italy, where you are expected to take your time and enjoy yourself, which can drive us Americans a little crazy when we have a packed schedule. Our server was attentive when we signaled him, and we learned that this building was an ancient stable for the castle, and the plexiglass in the floor covers an old well. One thing to note is that you need to get up and pay at the bar when you are done.

To be…read morehonest the non-Michelin star restaurants I visited in my 18 days in Italy were exceptional in comparison to the Michelin star restaurants. WINE LIST Hands down the most unique wine list I've ever seen. It's a huge book with local wineries with the front labels of wine bottles glued to each page. Fabulous way to display wines! SALAD Salad special of the day was mixed herbs and greens from their garden and at first look it was just a bunch of greens, no other vegetables or even colors, and it was literally one of the best salads I've ever had in my life. SHRIMP CARBONARA Wide and thick cut pasta with pancetta and tender shrimp, I've never had a carbonara with shrimp so it was a nice addition that I'll be asking for when I'm at Italian restaurants back home SPAGHETTI The spaghetti was much too al dente and when we sent it back we got hell for it. It was the only dish I've sent back abroad because it was inedible vs not good. The pasta was crunchy and we didn't want to eat raw pasta. The chef that prepared it was very irate that the pasta was not undercooked and they were unwilling to make us new pasta. So we told them it was fine and that's when we ordered the second shrimp carbonara. They didn't end up charging us for the angry spaghetti. SERVICE Consistent throughout dinner. We didn't get the scenic views since we went to eat a late dinner and it was pretty chilly outside.
