Antica Macelleria Cecchini In Greve in chianti

We went to Macelleria Cecchini yesterday, and honestly, the experience fell short of our expectations. The heavy social media exposure probably led us to imagine something better, more refined, and engaging. The meat is certainly high-quality, no complaints there. The problem is that it's served almost alone, accompanied only by beans: without at least two or three different side dishes to complement it, it ends up being a bit cloying, meaning it gets boring after a while, despite the quality of the ingredients. The baked potato, which should be a side dish, becomes almost a main course with Chianti butter. The impression is that the "Cecchini" persona and all his fame have taken over the actual gastronomic experience. The wine was the most disappointing: modest quality, especially considering the €50 menu. It's true that you can bring your own bottle, but a better option from them would have been welcome. In short: good, but not great. A pleasant lunch, but far from what we expected after so much fame.

What an incredibly dining experience. We were lucky to secure reservations. The food, the wine and the service are all phenomenal. They save the best cut of beef for last, so save room.

A sensational experience, a convivial dinner featuring top-quality meat. The main table is set in front of the oven where the meat is finished cooking, and you have the opportunity to meet the infamous Dario Cecchini and watch the butchers carve the various steaks, including the Florentine steak, during dinner.

Amazing experience 💯 Dario with his energy when inviting us to the restaurant and great food ✌️😃

An exceptional experience in Panzano, even if the maestro wasn't present that day. The meat was undeniably high quality, the set menu cleverly minimizes waste, and the idea of ​​sharing tables with other diners was a lovely one. The price was absolutely in line with the offerings and the experience. Highly recommended.

Amazing experience and great food!!

Congratulations to Tommaso: a true talent. If you stop by Cecchini, hope you find him—he makes all the difference!

A wonderful experience. From the staff, to the location, and the food. The fixed menu features excellent meat. The staff was extremely kind and helpful.

A unique experience. Meats and more meats, accompanied by good wine. A slow and flavorful lunch.

Returned for the second time, what can I say, excellent quality, we will return next year too
