Ristorante Conte Matto In Trequanda

30/12/2025: We returned to this osteria, which we've known for several years, and were unpleasantly surprised by the change. We ate on the veranda, which certainly doesn't have the same charm as the indoor dining rooms. The menu is very sophisticated and a bit pretentious, with limited choices and dishes that won't suit all palates. The wild boar and chocolate buttons were good, but several parts of the wild boar skewer were tough or sinewy. The grilled pasta and celery ossobuco were disappointing. The price was high for the quality. However, the service from the professional and pleasant staff was impeccable.

24/11/2025: There's no denying this place's charm: the location is enchanting, especially when dining in the garden, and the wine cellar offers superb wines (their Chianti is a guarantee) served by an impeccable and knowledgeable staff. The atmosphere and service are textbook. However, I must make a substantial point about the cuisine. Although there are interesting creative flourishes, the balance is tipped too far against the customer. Portions are often too small, almost like stylish tastings, which struggle to justify the significantly higher final bill. One is happy to pay for quality and location, but leaving feeling like one paid a lot for little food leaves a bitter taste in the mouth. To be a truly complete experience, the price-to-quantity ratio needs to be significantly rebalanced to the guest's advantage.
