Nicely set tables and a welcoming appearance attracted us to stop at this restaurant for lunch. The menu is simple and quite basic, the waitstaff friendly. Don't expect too much and you will enjoy it.

We went to Ristorante La Mencia twice on our stay in the Asciano area.Both times, the food was magnificent and the atmosphere was great. We had quite a few different dishes, and pretty much none of them disappointed.The first night we had excellent service. The waiter was great assistance with the Italian only menu, and was friendly and helpful in general.The second night, was not quite the same story. Our waitress spoke close to no English, so we had very little help in chosing dishes. Worst of all, she completely misunderstood our orders, so 1 dish was missing and I was left waiting 10 minutes after the others finished their food to get my main. Overall we would probably go again give them the benefit of delivering such great food, and hope to get a different waiter/waitress the next time.

One doesn't ordinarily expect much from restaurants that are attached to relatively remote visitor destinations and, with the Monastery of Monte Oliveto Maggiore being the stupendous place it is, one might not be too disappointed if the food offerings at this place housed in the entry tower to the monastery complex were just average. That said, I wasn't expecting much when a group of us arrived for lunch on the restaurant's deserted terrace one day in October. But what a terrific surprise I had. Everything about the place--from its gracious and informal hospitality, the kindness and patience of the wait staff, the simple, authentic food (and some of the best "beans cooked like birds would be cooked" that I have ever had...truly sensational in their taste and melting in their texture), to the resident gigantic cat who, after greeting us warmly, settled down at the edge of a small turtle pond to take in an afternoon of "cat TV"--made for a perfect experience. It was the ideal venue to pause to reflect on the deeply gratifying experience that spending time with the Sodoma and Signorelli frescoes in that most spiritual of settings. Why? I think that, for us at least, being at La Torre felt less like a 'customer' experience and more like we were dining with a family that had extra portions available to share. Its simplicity was in itself "artistic" without pretense or prissiness. We were left alone. but we were not ignored. The food was more delicious than pretty. I had made many visits to the monastery without stopping in at La Torre. After the lovely experience we had this time, I expect that La Torre will become a part of my future visits to this most wonderful of places.

We had lunch here on a Tuesday. There is terrace seating (no smoking allowed) and inside seating as well. We sat outside with several other small groups of tourists. We ordered a bruschetta pomodoro and a ribollita for starters and pici pomodoro for our main course. The home made pici was excellent as was the pomodoro sauce. The bruschetta pomodoro was also good but seemed to lack garlic and no basil on top either. But the toasted bread, the fresh (not chilled) tomatoes and the olive oil (from the nearby Abbazia) were all very good. The ribollita, which is not cheap, was a little too salty for my taste. If I ate here again, I would not order it. The menu we were given had a good selection of antipasti as well as choose your own pasta and sauce. This was a great menu for vegetarians like us. We donât need and never order a secondi. Service was friendly and efficient. The red house wine was very good too. We plan to eat lunch here again on another day and can recommend it to other travelers in the area. The small village is scenic and the restaurant is conveniently located only a couple of kilometers from the Abbazia.

Our first night in Tuscany and we had earmarked this restaurant based on previous T/A posts and was absolutely spot on. Everything was perfect. Simple but sublime pasta, great wine recommendation, beautiful garden setting, friendly waitstaff. Could not fault this restaurant. If you are driving, there is no parking next to the restaurant - you need to park down the hill in the 'public' carpark about 200m and then walk back up.

Don't expect pizza or pasta here (they don't serve them!) but rather some great cheese selections and cured meats. The portions are large and the prices incredibly reasonable - our four dishes, half liter of wine and sparkling water was just 36E for lunch (fed three people). The crostini sampler (four varieties) was excellent with the truffle spread being the best one as well as the prosciutto and caprese dish (very tasty buffala cheese! The woman working behind the counter speaks some English so it is relatively easy to get service. Do take time to take the steps down to the historic cellar - it dates from the 7th century.
