The vegetable flan with fondue was bland, osso bucco good, and penne with meat sauce was also good (a little too salty for me). Cheesecake was also bland but recommended by the waiter. The restaurant is not friendly towards those with mobility challenges. There's a cute exterior covered patio with a few dining tables but too cold for dinner in mid-February. Prices were fair. Interior is really charming with bookshelves lining all the walls and heavy with books and wine. Family friendly.

DINNER REVIEW I'm…read moregenerally no fan of traditional local restaurants since my mum is a pro in making Tuscan food, but I was brought here by a few friends coming from Piemonte and I was extremely glad they opened my eyes on this little corner. The restaurant is outside the center, in a more "industrial area" and this is why it is probably the one you want to go if you're on a business trip and would like to have some serious cooking before heading to bed. They also have an interesting new deal, since you can buy the products you eat, directly in the restaurant. The selection is wide: cured meats, the famous steak, home made jams, Tuscan cheese, jellies, durum wheat pasta, tomatoes, pickled veggies, olives, paté and of course wines and liquors. You can make your purchase online as well. As for my dinner, it was simply special: Appetizers of pickled onions, artichokes, eggplant, dried tomatoes, olives, olives paté on bread, selection of cheese with two different jams, the incredibly tasty vegetarian little tart, drowned in melted cheese Main course: tagliatelle with Porcini mushrooms, divine Second course: Florentine steak, fried mushrooms and fried vegetables All to be appreciated with different kinds of Dosio wines. It's enough to feel happy at the end of such a meal!

I went there for a lunch on a Sunday and after quite a road (do not trust googlemap which locates the restaurant in the wrong place! but if you take the correct road from Florence, it should not take you more than 25minutes) and i was really charmed by the place. The surroundings are beautiful and the building itself is an old typical one with stones and wood: charming. The appetizer plate (10€ for crostinis, vegetables, a bit of ham and cheese) was very good. Then the bistecca was also very good. We took it tartufata but to be honest, i did not taste the truffle taste; but the meat was very tender. With that, a (huge! i have never seen such a huge mushrooms, i wonder where this one came from!) funghi on the grill: delicious. The prices are very reasonable: the bistecca is so so much cheaper than in Florence... There was a wedding in another room so i guess you can privatize the place for special events!

The primo was truffle penne, purple gnocchi, and ravioli bolognese. Il secondo was florentine steak (at least 7-9cm thick) and a side of wild boar. The wine was wonderful, two types were served: a chianti Classico and a typical Tuscan red. Our waiter explained how important it was to trust the vineyard and that they have bought wine from the same people for almost 30 years! For dessert we had cookies similar to biscotti and some kind of liquor to dip it in. We chose nothing from the menu and trusted the waiter for everything. He did not let us down. Would go again any time I am in Italia.

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.
