Osteria La Sosta di Violante In Siena

Very nice place with interesting food combinations

We ate here a few weeks ago with some friends. Although it looks like a typical tourist restaurant, the quality of the dishes is surprising. There are excellent first courses, and we also had a steak that rivals the best trattorias in Florence. Average price and more than justified given the experience. I recommend it

Unmissable place in the center of Siena. Excellent quality food! We came for both lunch and dinner, so much so that we had a great time. Must try: The pici with Chianina ragù (I'm still salivating), the cinta tartare (the best I've ever tried) and the Florentine tagliata.

The food was outstanding—every dish was a delight. We've rarely eaten so well and thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

My favourite meal we had in Siena. We started with the cheese and honey plate - simple and delicious. We then had the beef cheek ragu. This was my favourite pasta we had on our trip in italy. Finally we got the Florentine steak and it was to die for. 10s, 10s, 10s across the board.

The appetizers and first courses we tried were good. Fast service.

The place is very simple but the food is incredibly delicious

We celebrated a birthday in Siena, we were looking for a special restaurant to eat local food. The restaurant received a high score on Google and definitely deserved it. We arrived without a reservation, which was a shame because we waited about 20 minutes outside… The service was wonderful, attentive and welcoming. We ordered lasagna for a first course which was excellent 👍 and a shared main course called Fiorentina - a thick steak about 1.1 kg. The meat was excellent and the preparation was exactly medium as we requested. Next to the steak we ordered potato wedges and Chianti wine which was delicious 😋. For the last course we had tiramisu with coffee ☕. The whole meal was delicious, I think about 90-80 euros. The atmosphere and design of the restaurant are beautiful, it is a restaurant inside the old town of Siena. Thank you, we enjoyed it very much!!

We’ve been in Italy for well over a week and the best dish we’ve had was at this restaurant. I wish I knew the Italian name for it. It was pasta with pork ragu. It’s the dish we’ll be talking about for a long time. I enjoyed my pasta with artichokes but my husband won the “ordering the best dish award” for the entire vacation here. It was down a quiet side street, which made it a very pleasant outside dining experience. The service was great and the rose was refreshing on a warm day.
