La Cantina In Scansano

Tasting of excellent hams! Characteristic atmosphere and friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Everything was excellent, from the food to the staff and the location. I enjoyed fabulous tripe and homemade tortelli. The portions were super generous. Truly excellent.

The restaurant is a piece of history, which is presented—or rather, re-presented—with a non-invasive yet exciting touch from the owners. Photos of the restaurant before the renovations are available to view inside, allowing you to fully appreciate the philosophy, already ingrained in the early days. You'll be welcomed by the host, Nicola, who for two years has been on a journey of presenting the public with spirits, bitters, and similar beverages, every conceivable variety, to satisfy the most diverse needs. Equally helpful in the dining room is Rachele, who with quiet diligence serves delicacies from the kitchen, the domain of their mother, Silvia. Rounding out the experience are the father and grandmother, equally committed to achieving the family's shared goal of running the restaurant. The dishes are traditional, indulgent yet sumptuous, satisfying both the mind and the palate. They also serve biscuits and fresh pasta, and their dry and leavened products are always handcrafted, with variations based on the whims of the moment, yet respectful of the Maremma terroir. Finally, in addition to the aforementioned alcoholic drinks, we offer a fine wine list, representing the Morellino region and beyond, where the Provveditore farm is located, further showcasing their indigenous heritage. Finally, I might add that you'll occasionally find themed evenings, given their passion for all things related, which isn't limited to the province/region but also includes national delicacies, brought back from their travels and made available to the public after establishing relationships with commendable businesses in the restaurant and "neighboring" sectors. A space for those who can also play a grand piano, which is not a given, because music is a union with the Earth. In short, a place to experience not only with the mouth but also with the senses, leaving the door of the heart open to be flooded by their humble yet unique way of being.

Beautiful location, excellent food, and even better service. We were greeted by Nico and Rachele's smiles. Local products and attention to detail. Homemade pasta...the best!

An authentic corner of Maremma, where you feel at home Today we lost ourselves among the wonders of Scansano and, almost by chance, found ourselves in the magical atmosphere of La Cantina di Palazzo Ghio. Entering was like crossing the threshold of a family home: a genuine, welcoming place, meticulously cared for, where every corner tells a story—between the brick walls and the modern furnishings that respect the charm of tradition. They welcomed us with rare kindness, treating us not just to lunch, but to an experience filled with smiles, stories, authentic flavors, and passion. The dish of the day was exquisite, the tasting of their olive oil intense and authentic, the dessert… simply unforgettable. And to top it off, the bar area at the entrance: a true gem, with a refined selection of liqueurs and cocktails prepared with the same care that permeates the entire cellar. A place that will remain in your heart. We'll definitely be back!

Excellent ribollita and sublime fried egg with Fiorino cheese, well done!

Spectacular: the owners, the location, and the food! More than just a lunch, it was a meeting of people, an exchange of stories, and a meal that tasted of love for their work! Like family! Highly recommended.
