La Sosta di Pio VII In Barberino val d'elsa

After a few days exploring beautiful Tuscany, I booked this trattoria because it had good reviews. Well, if you're passing through, come and eat, it's definitely worth it. The atmosphere is beautiful and rustic, the service is fast, friendly, and helpful, the prices are reasonable, and the wine list is extensive. The pappardelle are amazing, the wild boar is tender and tomato-free, and it's served with currants, the beef tagliata is incredibly tender, and the onions and baked potatoes are amazing. To finish, two delicious desserts. And by the way, a good wine to accompany everything is a must.

The atmosphere is super welcoming, I love it. The food is really good. The staff is kind and professional. I'm really happy I had lunch here. I highly recommend it!!!

A rustic, down-to-earth place where you can eat fantastic meat. Both the Florentine steak and the local stews are typical. Low prices and a very traditional, welcoming atmosphere. If you're looking for fine dining, this might not be the place for you, but if you want to eat well and keep your budget in check, this is the perfect spot. Reservations are required.

Excellent Tuscan cuisine, friendly and helpful staff, and Filippo is a wonderful host. We'll be back soon!

From what I'd heard about it, I expected something better. Anyway, the staff is friendly and the food is decent.

Very good service, wholesome Tuscan courtesy, and excellent food, from the starters to the truly excellent meat dishes, finishing with the truly noteworthy homemade desserts. The portions aren't overly large, but satisfying. The house wine (Sangiovese) is excellent, as is the value for money. A great place to consider for any type of outing, whether for leisure or business.

Top steak! We always come back. Excellent service.

A classic restaurant with the characteristics of a typical trattoria, the place where we dined in a less recent era was once a stable. Everything about it recalls those times and that function. I found it pleasant. The appetizer consisted of cured meats, sliced ​​a bit old, some of which we had to leave aside. The meat was in line with what is traditionally defined as a Florentine steak: at the pre-contractual inspection, we asked for the possibility of reducing the weight by 1.4 kg, and when brought back to the table, it was declared 1.3 kg, but in the end, the bill came back as 1.4 kg. Cooking is strictly at the chef's discretion, but the meat was cold from the refrigerator in the middle. The request for the mixed side dishes—chard, beans, potatoes, and spring onions—was served in four full portions, clearly too generous (though only three of the side dishes ended up on the bill). The dining room was crowded, but not just with tourists; it seemed to me that there were several regulars. The service was excellent, and the place is good for me, but I'll have to go back to confirm.

Highly recommended. The exterior is very rustic, the interior is a little gem, and the food is amazing. We'll definitely be back.

All the appetizers were delicious and unique in their classic style. The steak was exceptional! Top-quality meat, cooked to perfection! The desserts were excellent, all homemade. A wide selection of wines, and the house cypress liqueur is a must-try!
