Here we have a real dichotomy for the owner, Roberto. He is a passionate restaurateur and his dining room, staff and chefs all produce some wonderful fare from mainly local ingredients. We wonder though, whether he is really as passionate about having guests to stay in his hotel? We were on a walking holiday with half board arrangements and had an excellent meal with Roberto looking after us throughout. The rooms we had been booked by the travel company had been given to others, instead we were driven 5kms down the hill to "apartments" in a sculpture park that is managed by Roberto (we understand). These apartments are large but not luxurious by any means and we were totally reliant on Roberto's staff to transport us up and down the hill for dinner and after breakfast in the park cafe, something about which they (and we) had not been briefed. So, in summary, a great restaurant in the countryside but probably not a hotel to recommend unless Roberto decides to market it as such. Even the hotel sign has gone from outside, so we assume he is concentrating on his restaurant.

Contemporary and traditional cuisine meet in this historic establishment with a magnificent panoramic view of the Val d'Orcia
Positives:Excellent serviceView near the window is wonderfulWine list has a wide variety of regional selections, and the advice was knowledgeablePresentation of dishes was niceNegative:The food. Each dish we tried offered a creative approach to preparation, but the overall results were only average to good, nothing excellent. There are other places in town where one can get equal or better flavors at less than half the price.I can only think that the top reviews given by others were driven by their need to assign high marks to a meal that was expensive.

Il ristorante La Terrazza del Chiostro in Pienza è situato all'interno dell'Hotel Relais Chiostro di Pienza, ricavato da un ex convento risalente al XV° secolo. A soli 100 metri dalla cattedrale di Pienza. Il giardino di questo antico monastero, rappresen
First of all, I want to say that the location is extraordinary. You sit at your table and you look at the wonderful countryside. But you pay a high "coperto" for.Secondly, the menu contains very basic dishes (no creativity, no particular skills). The prices are once again high.Thirdly, the main problem is the service: slow, inattentive and in some cases rude (especially the tall blonde woman).

Family, Farm Restaurant & Cooking School
If you are planning to be in Montalcino and love great food and warm hospitality, make a reservation here for the most wonderful lunch. Currently serving lunch and also hosting cooking classes. From the minute you arrive Alessandro gives you the biggest and most enthusiastic welcome. And his wife, Manuela is an amazing chef who creates delicious and beautiful dishes. Along with other family members, they run a a real farm where the majority of the ingredients are from. Six of us dined here our last day in Montalcino and if we came the first we would have returned many times. We adored everything about Locanda Dametra. Bravo to this family for creating such a special experience.

Stylish restaurant in the center of Pienza
This is a professional, elegant, modern-Tuscan restaurant, but I am not sure it justifies the price. We had here our most expensive meal in a 12-day trip in central Tuscany. Now, it was indeed a very good meal: delicious antipasti (zucchini carpaccio, burrata, mixed salad), terrific lamb chops, very good pasta amatriciana and gnocchi, two yummy desserts and a good bottle of white wine. But at more than 50 Euros per person (excluding tip), you can probably do better here. Also, there was an irritating incident with the wine. At the beginning of the evening, I asked for - and was promptly given - a taste of two white wines, both offered at 20 Euros a bottle. I chose one of them, and we were served a bottle of what was presumably the wine I chose. The bill included a bottle of another white wine altogether, at 30 Euros. I commented on this and was told by the waiter: but this is the wine you just drank! I insisted it was not the wine I chose, and (to their credit) they changed the bill accordingly with no further argument. But it did leave a somewhat bitter taste. Still, a very good dinner.

We have been coming here during August for over 8 years now. The setting is always perfect. The food is very good. Yes, sometimes their service might not be the quickest, but the vista and ambiance needs to be enjoyed and when the food arrives (which really is never a long wait at all) it makes the perfect meal. The staff are very accommodating and their wine list is comprehensive and not ridiculously expensive, unlike some of its neighbours.

Il nostro ristorante è l'espressione di una cucina che, con la sua apparente semplicità , è fondata su una alchimia fatta di ingredienti selezionati e legati al territorio, cotture e gesti attenti. Accanto ad un Menù del Giorno, che cambia quotidianamente,
This is where the locals eat, no nonsense pizza & pasta of all sorts . One can even get fish & chips . beside petrol station. Try liver terrine and strips of tender beef called tagliata with pasta or chips . They have home cooked pastry tarts .quick service and cheap .Thank you, thank you and thanks again for your wonderful review.See you soon...Luca and the staff

Just wanted a quick pit stop meal, and saw this small place with its interesting menus on chalkboards outside, and a table in the street opened up so we pounced, and were glad we did. The waiter had good English, nd we were able to chat a little. The wine was tempting but as I was driving I stuck to Water. My wife had a very good Duck Salad,good flavour and good portion, and I had an anchovy and pesto Bruschetta. Really tasty. Recommended
