La Torretta del Cavallaro In Salve

The Florentine steak is truly worthy of a five-star rating, sublime! Friendly service (even if they don't show you the cut of the meat), a typical location, like a medieval village. The only flaw is the lack of exhaust fans. You'll leave feeling "smoked." But it's worth it if you want to satisfy your meat cravings.

An unmissable stop for those who love Tuscan food

A historic restaurant where I've eaten several times and where the quality of food and service has always been the same. For me, it's always been a pleasant experience and I recommend it.

Delicious traditional food, beautiful location.

The restaurant is located on a narrow street in the small historic center of the town that gave birth to the genius of Leonardo. The space is spacious, with two large dining rooms, but a bit spartan, although the exposed grill in the kitchen is truly unique. The menu offers few unique appetizers and first courses, but stands out for its second courses. The prosciutto appetizer, crostini with Tuscan sauce (served separately), and the accompanying focaccia are quite good. Among the first courses, among many dishes more suited to tourists and with little to do with Tuscan tradition, I would recommend the excellent pappardelle with wild boar. The restaurant's strong point is the grill, with the ever-present Florentine steak (which, however, is served on a spectacular hot grill that unfortunately continues to cook it...a tourist-friendly idea, but not for those who like it rare), the tagliata, the cockerel, and the rabbit. Off the grill, the wild boar stew is truly remarkable. For those craving dessert, you can finish with their tiramisu (truly delicious) or some excellent Prato biscuits with Vin Santo. I opted for the wild boar (on pappardelle and stewed)...Top. The wine list is not bad. The service is good. I recommend it to anyone who loves grilled meat or wild boar.

Dishes prepared with quality food and cooked to perfection, nothing to complain about. Unfortunately, this isn't a flaw but a virtue: the steaks and all the grilled meats are served on a very hot griddle, so they continue to cook at the table. This gives the pleasure of tasting the meat perfectly, but your clothes become stinky. The price of tasting good, I repeat, perfectly. The price of the dinner is more than fair. Highly recommended.

Good food, typical Tuscan dishes, with steak being the main course.

Nearby Leonardo da Vinci museum, in a very traditional area, very quite, in a middle of vineyards, this hidden restaurant was a brilliant place full of flavor and good taste.

Location within the walls of the Leonardo da Vinci museum, excellent, but tasty and pleasant dishes, excellent prices, kind and helpful staff.
