Osteria Etrusca In Volterra

05/10/2025: Dinner with work colleagues. Very good food; we tried both fish and meat. The Florentine steak was cooked to perfection. Prices were average for a high-end restaurant. Excellent experience.

03/10/2025: A good restaurant, but unfortunately, the atmosphere is cold and the waiters are unhelpful. We had the Florentine steak, which is what we came for. An appetizer, plus wine and dessert. The dishes were tasty, but nothing more. An appetizer for the price of a main course was completely disappointing in presentation, presentation, and taste. The service was odd: Water was brought, but not poured into glasses. Bread was brought, but no olive oil. Appetizers were brought, but they placed the dish at the end of the table on my side. My husband couldn't reach it. Wine was poured once and then not again—self-service. No one asked whether I liked the wine the waiter selected. The meat was brought on a serving trolley, from which the waiter serves by default. However, there was no service. There were some cloudy spots on the plates. I asked for a local Pisan wine, but the waiter insisted on wines from other regions. The Pisan selection was much larger. Ultimately, the wine was average and not local. The restaurant seems nice, the tablecloths are white, and the meat is delicious, but the actual atmosphere and overall impression are off-putting. I can't recommend it. We definitely won't be returning.
