Both women working were so kind and helpful. We had a table right next to the window, which was opened to experience the perfect weather and see the beautiful views. For antipasti we ordered the artichoke flan with chicken liver. This has fresh artichoke from their garden and it was so delicious! For primi we had the ravioli with pesto and Pici cacio e Pepe, both of which were very good. Secondi we had Tuscan sausages and grilled steak with a side of grilled veggies. Everything wonderful and perfectly cooked. For dessert we tried their cantucci with vin santo and the tiramisu. The tiramisu was one of the best I've ever had and the cantucci good, the vin santo very strong! This was my favorite meal during our time in Tuscany and I hope to visit again in the future.

Sehr leckeres, preiswertes Essen in einer gemütlichen Atmosphäre!

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

Ristorante La Bottega (Volpaia / Radda in Chianti)…read more Volpaia is a wonderful small hamlet that should be on everyone's must see village list when visiting Tuscany. Although the town has less than 30 permeant residents, it has one of the more interesting wineries in the area, Castello di Volpaia. Following a very worthwhile wine tour, we had lunch at La Bottega. The restaurant has a great outdoor seating area which overlooks the valley next to Volpaia. The view was wonderful and relaxing. The service was very prompt. The meal was solid. Overall, a good choice when visiting Volpaia.

The staff cut us up a platter of their cheese in the cellar. Tiramisu for desert topped the 5 star experience. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: You need reservations that can only be made by calling them, no online reservations capabilities. You should call 5 days in advance. Worth it. Our bill came out to less than $250 + Tip for 2 bottles of wine, 6 main entrees, 2 appetizers, 3 Tiramisu, and cheese platter - NOT BAD if you ask me. Because we gave them a nice tip - they gave us a bottle of wine as a thank you gift.

We ended up here by mistake (confused it with another spot), and unfortunately it didn't live up to expectations. The restaurant fills up with reservations for two seatings, and from the moment we sat down the pace felt rushed. We ordered drinks and a starter while deciding on the rest, but multiple staff members kept coming by trying to take our full order. It felt like they were pushing to move things along quickly. There were a couple positives. The chicken livers to start were quite tasty and something we didn't see often on other menus. The primi were underwhelming. The pasta didn't taste fresh like many other trattorias in Siena, and the dishes overall were just average. The lasagna in particular was mushy, and the sauces didn't stand out. The secondi were slightly better -- pork ribs, Barolo-braised beef, and a "small chicken" -- but still nothing that justified the higher prices. They do have an underground wine cellar built into a cave, which is interesting to see, but there are other places in Siena with much larger and more impressive cellar spaces. Also worth noting, they add a "10% tax" charge rather than the typical €2 coperto per person. Overall, a rushed and fairly mediocre meal at a higher price point. With so many better places to eat in Siena, this is one I'd skip.
