Taverna Dei Barbi In Montalcino

02/10/2025: Great fine dining experiences! Plenty of vegetarian options!

18/09/2025: We booked the wine lover lunch and got very dissapointed by the poor and mis-matched food. The wines were very good (rosso di montepulciano, brunello, moscadello dolce). They were poorly paired with an absolute mediocre flan (nothing crunchy to balance), tasteless ragu lasagna (more pasta than anything, almost like a mille-feuille) and lava cake (already sweet and heavy, instead for ex of a fruit based desert, or cantucci). We didnt have a sommelier, but a waitress lost in translation who did the service superficially, clumsy, on fast-forward. Didnt ever asked how was everything, if we want anything else, like a coffee for ex. So we got up and paid the 160 euro for a soulless experience. Eat-pay-leave kind of tourist trap. Very dissapoiting for a foodie, in spite of the very nice wines that deserved a much tastier playground to match with.
