My husband, son, and I stumbled upon this restaurant on our failed trip to find a winery that did public tastings. We enjoyed the server, the chef, the restaurant, and the food so much we were glad we hadn't found the winery!! The server is a precious woman who speaks over five languages. I didn't speak Italian well and she didn't speak English well but we were able to converse in Spanish just fine! Crisis averted!! She went out of her way to explain just how fresh the pasta was and just how healthy the preparation was. We just found her to be adorable. We were stuffed at the end of the meal and chose not to have dessert after lunch, so she brought us a complimentary dish of (the best) biscotti I've ever had in my life and a liqueur to dip it in. Unbelievable. We would return in a heartbeat but Scansano is a very lengthy trip for us! We all strongly recommend this ristorante.

In the restaurant of Podere lâAione guests can enjoy splendid examples of traditional Maremma cooking with variations on classic Italian dishes. In summer we have tables on our terrace with breathtaking view on the Tuscan archipelago and the Maremma on on

A pretty table with a panoramic view, delicious food and charming people. What more could you want? Just outside the little town of Scansano, Francesca is Dutch and her husband Italian and there is a lovely family atmosphere. Traditional Tuscan food with a special touch. They do agriturismo/bed and breakfast too.

The restaurant in itself is quite unique. Unfortunately, the menu is quite standard and run of the mill, reflecting little of the restaurant's quirking and fascinating atmosphere. That said, the food was basic and genuine..and included plenty of choices suitable for fussy children (something that is becoming very rare!) I would definitely recommend this restaurant to those whom are looking for basic Tuscan food that doesn't cost the earth.

We have found the restaurant on tripadvisor, and it is all true. We had a good and tasty dinner with a friendly host. Definitely a place to come back to.

The chef looks like he can't decide between being an artist, a pirate or both. The decor suggests a bit of a pyschodelic bric a brac shop. But, fortunately, he knows what he is doing in the kitchen. We were very content with a pasta dish and a glass of wine on a rainy Tuesday afternoon. We started as the only two customers even thought it was late. More folks drifted in. My main concern was the WC. It is accessed down some dark and rickety stairs and through a very weird series of storage and sitting rooms. When you get there, there is little bulb in the ceiling; no soap, no paper towels, toilet paper will have to do we are literally and figuratively in the dark about cleanliness. Is this where the kitchen staff makes their ablutions? Hopefully, they have a sink and soap closer to home.Despite the obvious economic sustenance of the town and area's wine region, the place looks like it is in difficult times. The city is a bit scruffy, but still seems safe. I'm glad we were just passing through.Thank you Ulisse4 for your review, and I must compliment you for your sensitivity in the art of observation! yes I studied art and I wanted to be a painter but then I chose to work in restaurants going around so many countries around the world, also doing the cook on boats cruising the Mediterranean and crossing the Atlantic Ocean to get to the Caribbean, so you absolutely reason I feel a little cook a little artist and a little pirate! the "style" of the restaurant a little bric a brac and psychedelic is also this part of me and my partner because we have been doing art and antiques dealers for years. For your disappointment on the bathrooms you're absolutely right and as you may have noticed that we are just in a phase of restructuring ... so if you come back you'll find everything fine!as for the country of Scansano perhaps I would say that you have been conditioned by the sad and rainy day that made you see a village in decline ...... no Scansano is not portofino and not even Capri, Scansano is a small village Tuscan still true and genuine that is slowly opening up to tourism, more than economic crisis we have a cultural crisis ... but this applies to all of Europe! Thanks again for being our guest and if you come back here I hope to see you again for another spaghetti carbonara! Salut mon capitaineE.L.F il pirata ;)

Typical "toscano" friendly service in this restaurant, serving good food (antipasti, primi, and secondi were all very good). The "tortelli" are definitely worth trying (regardless of which sauce), the "ribollita" soup or a steak are worth trying as well.We didn't have problems in finding a place, but reserving a table may be a good choice.

We stopped here for a quick dinner...cheese, mixed salumi and wine all 100% local. Simone and crew are very good at what they do. We had our dinner downstairs where the cantina is properly set up as an old style tuscan/italian kitchen with sharing tables where you can steal advice from the regulars of The Salumeria. We highly recommend this place! Prices are very reasonable...said from an Italian!Dario&Abi
3. Ristorante TERRA NERA
Wide selection of typical Tuscan dishes cooked with particular attention to the innovations of contemporary culinary culture. You can choose our dishes from the Menu or you can leave the choice to our brillant chef.

At lunch and at dinner in the warm months you can sit outside under an arbour and eat delicious fish in an area where meat is the norm. We live nearby and have been going there for years, on our way up from Grosseto to Scansano. It is very much a local restaurant and the proprietors are known to everyone. We love it.Thank you so much for the review. I expect you soon. regards Alessandro

This restaurant is really out of the way but definitely make a detour if you can. Delightful reception from the owner/chef and a truly astonishing meal at very reasonable prices. Tuscan food raised to an exceptional level with subtle flavours and local specialities. We followed Paula's recommendation and were served a variety of home made pasta followed by guinea fowl. Altogether an outstanding dinner even in an area renowned for its memorable food.
