Osteria Maccalè In Sorano

warm and friendly welcome, exceptional pici all'aglione

Today we went to this little restaurant that was recommended to us, and it was a pleasant discovery! Authentic dishes and local ingredients are the perfect combination for an excellent lunch. The restaurant is also part of a wonderful initiative to promote the local area, sponsored by the San Giovanni delle Contee Community Cooperative.

Family atmosphere, excellent cuisine. Found by chance during a trip.

Macallè Restaurant is a true haven of tradition in the heart of San Giovanni delle Contee (GR). Here, home-style cooking takes center stage: carefully prepared dishes, using local, authentic ingredients, and time-honored recipes that evoke the flavors of yesteryear. From fresh homemade pasta to traditional Tuscan main courses, every bite is a journey through the scents of the countryside. The atmosphere is familiar and welcoming, ideal for those who love good food and a home-away-from-home feel. A place where simplicity becomes excellence.

A small osteria in a small town where tranquility reigns supreme. Courtesy and excellent, well-cooked food.

Great little restaurant! Small menu with high-quality food, good value for money! We really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend making a little detour there!

Good food, attentive and professional staff. For dessert, I would have had another plate of tripe. It's worth going back.

It's incredible that something like this still exists! Everyone is helping out, and the village community is being revitalized. The food was wonderful, all regional products.

Update @ Oct, 2025 My previous evaluation is confirmed. The restaurant is growing in quality year by year. Brava Tiziana and the crew! ‐---------------- This historic restaurant has been reopened after years and years of inactivity. The Cooperativa San Giovanni delle Contee is working to make this small town alive and full of interesting events again. The cooking is excellent, rediscovering old dishes now forgotten. Tiziana and her staff are doing a great job! Not to be missed. Reservations are appreciated

Nothing to add to the best review already published by those who were luckier to have eaten here before me 😂
