Osteria del Leone – Tradition and hospitality in the heart of Bagno Vignoni
In the charming village of **Bagno Vignoni**, where time seems to pass at a slower and more relaxed pace, we had the pleasure of having dinner at the **Osteria del Leone**, a place that perfectly embodies the authenticity of the Tuscan tradition.
Hospitality and service
From our arrival we were welcomed with great cordiality by a trained and attentive staff, capable of making every guest feel at ease. Although the menu is mainly focused on meat and the typical flavors of Tuscan cuisine, the staff proved to be extremely helpful and flexible in meeting our dietary needs. This attention to the customer, combined with an in-depth knowledge of raw materials and cooking techniques, made the experience even more pleasant.
Special attention for those who follow a vegan diet
Despite not being a restaurant specifically oriented towards vegetable cuisine, Osteria del Leone was able to surprise us with an exceptional selection of vegetables and side dishes, prepared with care and respecting the seasonality of the ingredients. The vegetables, very fresh and tasty, have been enhanced with simple but expert cooking, allowing the authentic flavors to emerge in all their intensity. Each dish demonstrated great attention to the quality of the raw materials and an excellent knowledge of local cuisine.
The atmosphere and the location
The tavern is located in a privileged position within **Bagno Vignoni**, one of the most fascinating villages in Tuscany, known for its spas and its extraordinary historical and landscape heritage. The environment is warm and welcoming, with furnishings that recall the Tuscan tradition without excess, maintaining a perfect balance between rusticity and elegance. It is the ideal place for those who want to enjoy a dinner in an authentic and relaxing atmosphere, immersed in the beauty of a timeless village.
Conclusions
The **Osteria del Leone** represents an excellent choice for those who want to enjoy Tuscan cuisine in a refined but informal context. The professionalism and availability of the staff, combined with the quality of the ingredients and the care in the preparation of the dishes, make this restaurant an unmissable stop for those visiting Bagno Vignoni.
Despite being a place with a strong traditional imprint, we greatly appreciated their ability to adapt to the requests of a varied clientele, demonstrating great sensitivity and culinary openness. A highly recommended experience, both for lovers of Tuscan cuisine and for those who, like us, follow a vegan diet but don't want to give up the pleasure of a dinner in a high-quality tavern.

What can I say, I was here with my girlfriend and everything was perfect. We took the surprise tasting menu and every course exceeded expectations. Dino's ice cream and service are exceptional!

The environment is a bit basic, almost empty, the portions are modest but well plated and good.
The staff is friendly, but not very inviting... in the summer it is much nicer.

We returned to eat at Osteria del Leone and for us it was confirmed as the best restaurant in the area.
We started with appetizers of hand-cut ham and pate with exquisite pa brioche made by them.
Then to follow pici with garlic, cacio e pepe and their carbonara which is truly Top!
Then among the specials we took the pork chop cooked at low temperature and the truly special mullets stuffed with smoked provola and fried.
To close on all the delicious desserts, a special mention for the buffalo ricotta ice cream with sour cherries which was truly incredible.
Fast and kind service.
Wine list for connoisseurs with a wide selection of labels and prices.
We will definitely return on our next visit to Siena.
Well done!

I booked well in advance, specifying that it was a special occasion: a surprise dinner for my husband's 40th birthday, part of a romantic weekend in Bagno Vignoni. I had read from the reviews that the unmissable specialty of the place is carbonara, which is my husband's favorite dish. Already from our arrival the staff showed great attention and sensitivity, welcoming us with sincere smiles and great care. The waiter was truly delightful: friendly, very knowledgeable about the dishes and very good at advising us. The restaurant manager also pampered us with care, suggesting an ideal wine that turned out to be perfect to accompany dinner.
The best surprise arrived at the right time: a portion of their fantastic carbonara, not requested but kindly offered by the staff, complete with a candle for the birthday boy! A gesture that moved us and made us feel truly special.
All the dishes were excellent, elegantly presented and prepared with local ingredients of extraordinary quality: from the artichoke alla giudia and the liver pâté as a starter, to the risotto and pigeon, each course was exquisite. You can clearly feel that behind every dish there is authentic passion, competence and a sincere love for the territory.
At the end of the evening we also had the pleasure of a spontaneous and very pleasant chat with the chef (who I believe is also the main manager), who added a further touch of warmth and personality to a truly memorable dinner.
Highly recommended also for the excellent quality-price ratio!

Prima di tutto vorrei ringraziare la gentilezza e la cortesia che ci ha riservato la cameriera mettendoci completamente a nostro agio. Abbiamo un bimbo di 15 mesi e non è sempre facile cenare per noi fuori, quindi GRAZIE GRAZIE GRAZIE.
Cena molto molto buona, ho provato degli ottimo Pici alla Gricia con cinta senese, mia moglie Pici all'aglione, 2 antipasti e una stupenda fiorentina da 1kg e oltre. Vastissima carta dei Vini v9n tutte le tipologie dei prezzi. Posto molto caratteristico e buon rapporto qualità prezzo. Ci torneremo sicuramente

Abbiamo pranzato all’esterno in una piazzetta meravigliosa!il servizio è stato ottimo nonostante i tavoli si siano riempiti in 10 minuti.
Cibo ottimo, consiglio tra gli antipasti il pan brioche con i fegatini e il cardoncello fritto, come primo ho preso le ruote al ragout di daino, mentre come secondo il maialino era molto buono.
Ottima carta vini, hanno un brunello da 38€!
Prezzi giusti!
