Old monastery of 1100 now restaurant and B&B is offering a italian contemporary cousine with a wonderful panoramic view in the sunny weather and an intimate and exclusive dining room during the winter season.
If youâre looking for an *authentic* experience, Iâd highly recommend this place. Their Menu ranges between various kinds of food, the ingredients of which are locally sourced (and one can agree that the Tuscan soil truly does wonders to food), and which incorporate various elements of traditional Tuscan, and overall Italian recipes, mixed with the outstanding creativity of the Chef. The wine is fantastic, the location is jaw-dropping (romantic + scenic), and the food is DEFINITELY worth its price and more. The service is kind and the atmosphere is welcoming. Planning to head back there soon - good to note that you can also plan group gatherings, weddings, and parties with them!Dear Alina B,It was so wonderful to have you here! Thanks a lot for all your compliments, we are truly looking forward to seeing you soon!Thanks again even for taking you time writing your feedback on Tripadvisor!!Best Regards,Osteria Del VicarioErik Regini

Whilst this is a great big place, it still has lots of character with its vaunted ceilings and interesting decor. Large, noisy and full of families - it was a great spot for a really good pizza (simple and tasty), and fast friendly service.

Nice ambience and good food. Try pici allâaglione or pici casa tua. Drink the sangiovese house wine and enjoy the laid back and young atmosphere.

Cucina tipica toscana Taglieri di salumi e formaggi, bruschette, primi, secondi... traditional Tuscan cuisine
We chose to sit inside as it was cooler there. The staff were very friendly and helpful, particularly with wine choices (of which there are many local ones). They were also very happy to recommend reasonably priced choices by the glass rather than upselling.The starter portions were very generous- the bruscetta was 3 large slices with different toppings, and the assorted cheeses and jams filled the board. There were quite a few wild boar based recipes and the seared wild boar mortadella with lentils was delicious and filling. Most dishes were under 10 euros. We ended up buying a bottle of local Chianti to take home, which certainly didn't disappoint, again with helpful guidance without pressure. We'd definitely return!

Restaurant with garden and panoramic views of San Gimignano and the Tuscan hills. The dogs are welcome.
We took the cable car up to the old town and had lunch here following a recommendation from our B & B hosts. They had booked us a front table on the outdoor terrace overlooking gorgeous scenery. Ravioli filled with cheese and asparagus was delicious as was the steak. Friendly attentive service and nice wines by the glass.

We enjoyed a fantastic meal here whilst spending a week at nearby La Fonte. The restaurant was recommended by the owner of La Fonte but suggested we book to make sure as it can get busy. I called and made a reservation no problem. The service, advice etc were all fantastic from the owner and his daughter. He came and explained all the options on the menu and what the daily specials wereWe opted for all courses and am glad we did as each one was superb. It was truly the best meal weâve had so far on our Italian tour and I donât expect it to be beaten. I went for the Tuscan salamis starter, the mother Edaâs spinach and ricotta stuffed lasted and duck sauce, the âTuscan Tunaâ (amazing pork loin) before ending with the tiramisu. The other half had the pecorino and jams, followed by the pasta with cheese and sausage (this was amazing) and followed with the beef fillet and the chocolate dessert.Iâd return without hesitation and strongly recommend all stopping in Certaldo or San Gimignano to get down there and give it a go!Grazie per la vostra bella recensione è pura felicità per tutto il nostro staffGiampiero Niccolini

We ate here twice during our week in Tuscany.The service is generally excellentThe ravioli excellentThe local chicken also excellentThe steak we felt a little chewy The complaint from me is from our second visit. We ordered the chicken with truffle from the main menu (page open, pointed, used my poor Italian). The waiter asked if we wanted white or black (which we took to mean an option with that dish) , we shrugged, and said white.It wasn't until our bill came that we realised white dish is twice the price. For those who know truffles I'm sure that's obvious, but there was no warning or redirection to the separate truffle special menu.When we raised this we were simply told "I asked if you wanted black or white", and that was the end of the conversation. I can't really fault the food, but I think a more professional host would mention when they're taking you off main menu, or show some appreciation for the fact you clearly shrugged when asked to make the choice in the first place.Shame, walked away from a nice dinner frustrated and annoyed rather than planning to return. Leaving this review as a word of caution to ensure others pay closer attention.Ciao Foddeh,First of all thank you for coming to eat twice :)Thank you but we don't need that you write a review to warn future customers,because we have two separate truffle menu with different priceFor a correct information when the custumers arrive in our restaurant we inform them about the dishes of the day and then we introduce with a SEPARATE FLYER the WHITE TRUFFLE dishes, where the price of each dish is clearly written like as well the grams servedIn a jar we also let you the opportunity to smell the white truffle in order to make you understand the difference with the black: the with is the king of the forest :)Inside the Main Menù there is the BLACK TRUFFLE dishes with black picturesIn the separate flyer there is the WHITE TRUFFLE dished with white picturesEvery single guest is having in the hands the two menu with the list of dishes with well clear writing price To avoid any mistake every time the guests order truffle-based dishes always we ask if they wish order white or black truffle because we don't whant any problem or mistake We asked you the same question and you answer: "chicken with white truffle"Can you help me understand what we need to do more to make you understand the difference ? :)I'm sorry about it but nobody had bad intentions because you ate and paid exactly what you ordered with all informations in your handsThe name of the waiter who took the order was me and you ate at table number 10 in the lower roomI forgot to tell you, that even on our website all the menus and the wine list have the price because we don't want any problems or miss comunicationsEnjoy the rest of holidays in ToscanaMax

You can sit outside and marvel at how the traffic, including long buses, manges the tight streets and corners. We had coffee and ice -cream - they have some interesting creations, even if a bit pricy. Toilets were very pleasant.
