Antica Trattoria La Torre In Castellina in chianti

28/07/2025: The location is very pleasant and relaxing, with beautiful furnishings and attention to detail... ideal for a quiet dinner, although—with the restaurant fully booked—the noise level was a bit high, making conversation difficult. The menu is extensive and interesting, with tasty and well-conceived options that showcase top-quality ingredients. All the dishes I ordered were appreciated for both their balanced flavors and their aesthetics. They were beautifully presented and served on elegant plates, which I found particularly pleasing and in keeping with the ambiance. The wine list is also well-structured, with excellent labels. However, I should note that the wines by the glass, while high-quality and in the medium-high price range (up to €17), are served in very small quantities, bordering on standard portions. If I may make a small complaint, I would have expected a little more from the service, which, while courteous, occasionally seemed a bit distracted or inattentive to the pace of the meal. Overall, a pleasant dining experience, recommended for those looking for quality, attention to presentation, and well-executed cuisine.

19/07/2025: Nice traditional trattoria-style restaurant with some modern takes on traditional Italian food. Friendly servers. Nice outdoor area. A little pricier than others around but quality is good.
