L'Hosteria del Benandante In Rapolano terme

Nestled among the small, charming streets of Serre di Rapolano, whose ancient charm already enchants you, is the Hosteria del Benandante. The owner, Valentina, welcomes you with kindness and warmth, and you immediately feel welcome. Valentina doesn't just present the menu; she explains it to you, and with it, the dishes she prepares, which speak of a time-honored culinary tradition, local flavors, and forgotten recipes that are once again at the forefront. The menu is limited, and in my opinion, this isn't a flaw; on the contrary, it's the quality of the ingredients, the authentic flavors, and the meticulous preparation that take center stage. The portions are just right, sized to allow you to explore multiple options. You certainly won't leave hungry; on the contrary, you'll enjoy the experience, the time, the company, and the exceptional dishes. Trying the pappa al pomodoro and panzanella, or the pici with leeks and sausage, is a must. The turkey ossobuco is a true delight, and the "Chianti tuna" is a true gem of traditional cuisine. The desserts are also truly excellent. We hope to return soon to try the rest!

Tuscan flavors... flavors of times gone by, beautiful location in a medieval square....must try...

A place I would not have wanted to leave. A truly unique evening. Valentina, the owner, is the soul of this little place. Her passion, dedication and above all love in welcoming customers and accompanying them in the flavors of her cuisine, leave no doubt about the guaranteed result of an excellent dinner, as if you felt at home. It will remain one of the most pleasant discoveries of Serre di Rapolano. If you pass by here, a stop at this very special restaurant is a must.

Careful and familiar welcome with special attention to our dog who was immediately offered a bowl of fresh water. Typical menu explained in detail and with courtesy by the owner who is also an excellent cook. Very honest prices When we return to these parts we will not fail to return and recommend it to our friends

Very small trattoria located in a central position within the walls of Serre di Rapolano. Very characteristic atmosphere, good service and good quality of the menu, even if the choice is limited to a few dishes. Low prices. Absolutely recommended.

Small restaurant in the center of Serre di Rapolano run by a very nice and kind lady. Excellent food cooked directly by her. It is definitely worth stopping and enjoying excellent local dishes. Reservations recommended.

A truly special restaurant, where you can breathe in the true Tuscan tradition. The food is excellent, prepared with care and quality ingredients. You absolutely have to try the Tonno del Chianti, a surprising and delicious dish. The owner is friendly and passionate, she explains the dishes impeccably, making the experience even more enjoyable. The place is small but very welcoming, with an intimate and familiar atmosphere. Highly recommended for those looking for authentic flavors and a warm welcome.

A place with simple, authentic cuisine and excellent value for money. Excellent welcome. Recommended.

C’è da dire che il posto è una chicca nascosta nel paesello, però la cuoca non è una cuoca… non cucina da cuoca.. cucina da mamma!! Quei sapori di casa, che ti fanno stare bene!!! Che ti fanno uscire dicendo ‘’che bene che ho mangiato’’!!!!! Posto da provare, andateci, è tutto buonissimo!!!!

Locale molto tranquillo in cui cenare con la famiglia è stato molto piacevole. Personale molto gentile e cordiale ed il menù proposto era vario. Abbiamo optato per degli antipasti, un primo e due secondi. Tutto molto buono e porzioni giuste. Ci torneremo sicuramente.
