Ristorante Taverna del Grappolo Blu In Montalcino

This is a Michelin one star and that’s why I decided to try. It was a very nice environment in Montalcino old town and I was not disappointed overall as experience. Waiter and owner very nice and friendly. Local food very authentic with good wine selection, price affordable. All was good. Perfect choice for a romantic walk around the old town to digest, just watch the tripod stairs on the hill. Seems here to be back in the middle age time. If you stop in this town, you this is not a bad experience

Really really excellent tavern by number🥇with really good dishes, I ate the amazing tripe. Never eaten so good, really! with a good glass of red wine, a terrine of melted cheese with honey 🍯 they bring you a wine book as big as the Bible! Not to be missed with so much choice of reds and whites from all over Italy, very friendly and helpful staff, I recommend booking because it is a historic place and it is always full to be able to enter! In my opinion I would say Highly recommended!! Must try because it really deserves a lot 🏆 Thanks for everything 🙏

Small restaurant in the historic center of Montalcino, typical location of a historic tavern, the quality of the dishes excellent, tried tomato soup, mixed cold cuts and duck tagliatelle, all extremely good, wine list with a lot of choice. The only flaw is that the tables are really close together. Friendly service.

We stumbled upon the place by chance, a nice place, friendly waitresses but the owner left something to be desired, the pinci were few and he didn't want us to put parmesan on the pasta because in his opinion we would ruin the duck ragout. The bill was very expensive.

Small place but very nice and well looked after. Luciano the owner, a Roman innkeeper, advises you on the best wines in the area which are excellent and has a great selection. Well prepared dishes and good quality raw materials. Excellent value for money

Very well received by our new friend Luciano, we had a very good dinner with very well prepared traditional dishes. Pleasant and efficient service. Bertrand

Spectacular place and food... I highly recommend it

Slow service. Not attentive staff.

Abbiamo prenotato di persona la sera stessa e ci hanno trovato un tavolo alle 20.00. Abbiamo preso i pici cacio e pepe: pasta fatta a mano buona e cremina fatta davvero bene. Soggettivamente c’era poco pepe (probabilmente per incontrare anche gusti stranieri) ma era stato messo a tavola ed io ne ho aggiunto un po’. La porzione non era abbondante, infatti dopo il primo avevamo ancora fame. Io ne ho approfittato per assaggiare l’olio di Montalcino che avevano messo a tavola ed era molto buono: saporito ma anche delicato. Abbiamo poi diviso un’insalatina con mela e formaggio: non mi aspettavo fosse già condita e secondo me dovrebbero dirlo ma ad ogni modo era buona anche se pochissima (capisco fosse un contorno ma per me le porzioni dovrebbero essere leggermente più abbondanti). Anche i dolci erano abbastanza buoni. Ho trovato il flan al cioccolato personalmente un po’ troppo liquido ma sembrava fatto abbastanza bene e crostata con crema di limone abbastanza buona: ottima crema con gusto deciso di limone non troppo dolce e nemmeno troppo aspro e frolla morbida anche se un po’ coperta dal gusto della crema. Prezzi giusti per la qualità. Due primi, un contorno, un calice di vino, caffè e due dolci 69€. Personale cordiale e simpatico.

Locale ben curato e bella atmosfera. Piatti molto buoni, da provare soprattutto la guancia di vitello e i pinci al ragù. Gustosa anche la ricotta fresca servita con miele e scaglie di cioccolato. Le uniche pecche, a mio avviso e per il mio mood di viaggiatore, sono il “librone” dei vini e un cameriere, che mettono un po’ in soggezione il cliente, che anziché rilassarsi rischia di sentirsi sotto esame.
