For me, Antica Trattoria in Colle di Val d'Elsa is the epitome of an excellent restaurant in Tuscany.
Eating at this restaurant is like 'eating like God in Italy'.
The menu features a variety of typical Tuscan dishes that you rarely find elsewhere. The ribollita is the best between Florence and Siena, and Enrico's tartare is impressively refined.
The entire menu is accompanied by wines of the highest quality.
Everything about this restaurant is just right.
It has a cozy atmosphere and friendly service, and sometimes the setting makes you feel as if you're in one of Federico Fellini's best films.
Enrico and Luciana Paradisi, along with their daughter Christiana, are excellent hosts.
It is also the best value for money that I have found in Tuscany.
I have been eating at this restaurant for 25 years and have never been disappointed.

Per me, the Antica Trattoria di Colle di Val d'Elsa is the emblem of an excellent restaurant in Tuscany.
Mangiare in this ristorante is come "mangiare da Dio in Italia".
The menu offers a variety of typical Tuscan dishes that are difficult to find. The ribolita is the migliore tra Firenze and Siena, while the tartare of Enrico is raffinata al punto giusto.
The intero menu is accompanied by wine of high quality.
It's perfect in this restaurant.
The atmosphere is accompaniment, the cordial service and the ambient atmosphere are similar to the famous films of Federico Fellini.
Enrico and Luciani Paradiesi, with the figure of Christiana, are also the fathers of the house.
This is perfect and it also has a better quality report - before it was born in Tuscany.
Frequento this restaurant since 25 years and not until May Rimasto deluso.

Classified as a trattoria, but prices like a starred restaurant.
The food was good overall, even if the portions were a bit small for the price paid for the dishes.
We spent about €100 for two, taking two appetizers and two first courses, a bottle of water and two glasses of wine.
The service was very friendly even if when we arrived, not being dressed very sporty (we were wearing a swimsuit and shorts and a top over it) I felt some glances that didn't make me feel comfortable.

It is rare to find an elegant restaurateur, as knowledgeable as Enrico. If we add that we eat like God...

Restaurant chosen randomly since I was in the square of Colle Val d'Elsa.. Exceptional choice, I found a welcoming, quiet place where you can breathe the true Tuscan tradition and long experience in the sector, the food is truly excellent (the crostini with extraordinary livers) and the kind and professional service... Highly recommended!!
