Il Vecchio Mulino In Volterra

13/01/2026: Friendly service, delicious food, good lines.

08/01/2026: I ate at this place for lunch with my partner. I had very high expectations after reading the reviews, and I have to say I was a bit disappointed. A young man (whose name I don't remember) served us, very professional, polite, nice, and helpful. The problem was the food. It wasn't bad at all, but not good enough to justify the prices. We each had a decent appetizer (three meatballs and a tartare). Then my partner had a first course (a kind of carbonara with speck), neither good nor bad, not very tasty. I had a steak that was anything but exceptional, and it was even overcooked for my taste. (I didn't think I'd have to say I wanted my steak rare in a place like this that specializes in meat.) A bottle of wine, among the cheapest, a dessert, and a liqueur. 75 euros per person. It seems really excessive. I would have expected such a high price if the food had been of the highest quality. But unfortunately, the two main courses... both the first course and the steak were decent, 6...6+. The overcooking of the steak in particular weighed on my rating.
