I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Pistoia

10/01/2026: We spent a few days in Pistoia for the Christmas holidays, and on the evening of January 1st, craving a nice Florentine steak, we stumbled upon this typical trattoria. They offer a fixed-price menu, which I recommend, which includes mixed appetizers, a Florentine steak of a weight appropriate for the number of guests, three side dishes, and a dessert. Drinks are not included. The owner, like the staff, is incredibly welcoming. You can tell they really care about explaining the quality and provenance of the meat. Oh! By the way, aside from appetizers and side dishes: THEY ONLY EAT MEAT! It's a real steakhouse; they don't do first courses, they don't do fish... What a steak, folks! Served on piping hot plates so it doesn't get cold, and cut at the table by the owner himself. The only flaw: they served us French meat. Good, tender, but not the most flavorful. I would have preferred local meat. Anyway, I recommend it. It's worth it.

06/01/2026: This traditional Tuscan restaurant is located on Via Sant'Andrea in Pistoia, in a beautiful medieval building restored with exposed brick and stone. Enjoy fabulous grilled meats and traditional dishes with tasty crostini, excellent cured meats, side dishes, and appetizers, accompanied by a wide selection of white and red wines. The owners, with great professionalism and kindness, recommend these wines, turning a simple dinner into a truly exquisite culinary experience. The restaurant is truly beautiful, meticulously maintained, and fantastic for photographs. Excellent in every way! The food, wines, hospitality, and sophistication. Recommended restaurant!

04/04/2026: Great experience, delicious food

22/03/2026: The restaurant is modern inside, but in my opinion, it clashes with the flowery dishes and other slightly "outdated" elements that clashed with the overall modern feel it was probably intended to convey. The steak was excellent, perhaps even better. The appetizer featured very poor-quality cheeses and a tomato soup that seemed pre-cooked; I don't know how to explain it; it was artificial in some way. For dessert, the tart was good, but the Prato biscuits were terrible, made with something resembling candied fruit; only two had almonds. I find this unfortunate coincidence with many places that boast of modernity, yet try to present traditional cantucci in a whimsical way, with terrible results. You could order the 3-kg bag from MARR and you'd make a better impression. The service, especially considering it was a Saturday night, was staffed by young and very young people, and perhaps one or two slightly older waiters who knew their job. Overall it didn't make a good impression on me.

12/03/2026: Quality cuisine featuring reinterpretations of traditional local dishes. Friendly, attentive service.

01/03/2026: We had a wonderful meal, excellent service, and delicious dishes. I recommend the maltagliati. We'll definitely be back.

04/05/2026: Good meat, service a little slow

01/05/2026: We were there on the evening of May 1st. After a long time, I ate some delicious meat. I want to compliment all the staff for their kindness, service, and cuisine. Unfortunately, I can't give more than 5 stars, but you deserve 1,000,000. SEE YOU SOON, WE'LL BE BACK. BEST REGARDS FROM CARRARA.

07/11/2025: One of La Sala's historic venues, perfect for couples and groups! Their fresh pasta dishes are highly recommended! The staff is knowledgeable and incredibly friendly! Highly recommended!

03/11/2025: An excellent restaurant in the heart of Pistoia, almost on Piazza della Sala, with a very original and tasteful decor. This is our menu: tortelli filled with Prato mortadella with a parmesan cream, chopped pistachios, and drops of basil reduction, artisanally marinated beef carpaccio with crunchy seasonal vegetables, and dessert.

16/10/2025: The olive oil tour is highly recommended! Incredibly delicious olive oil at a great price, which you'll appreciate even more after a tour where they explain how much time and energy this process takes. David and his wife were incredibly hospitable!

06/10/2025: David and Georgia are the perfect hosts. You can feel at any given moment that they love what they do. Not only is the gorgeous farmhouse located in a beautiful area, but the service both of them provide is excellent. If you get the chance to enjoy the „farm-to-table“ experience, go for it! It is absolutely worth it. If we ever travel back to this area, we will definitely stay with them again!

07/04/2026: A strategic point of reference for both a quick stop and a true gathering for cyclists, motorcyclists, and travelers. The food is top-notch, the staff is always polite and helpful...and the cakes are divine.

30/12/2025: I was advised to try the desserts, so I did. Lamvetrina is mouth-watering. Homemade desserts that are worth a stop at this cyclists' cafe.

08/04/2026: Everything perfect! Everything delicious!

07/04/2026: Too long a wait...and the bill was a bit too salty...I was hoping for better...also because I wasn't thrilled with either the pizza or the tartare...

04/03/2026: What a great treat! Everything is delicious, congratulations!

25/01/2026: Delicious pizza, well-topped, and made with quality ingredients. Perfect for an evening with friends, family, or even just a quick snack. Great prices, very friendly and helpful staff. A local favorite!

11/04/2026: First visit and a bullseye! A typical Italian trattoria. Very friendly staff and wonderful dishes. You can sit inside or in a kind of conservatory. We had half a liter of house wine (Bianco frizzante), a mixed antipasti platter, and for our main courses, ossobuco and a beef stew. Side dishes included roasted potatoes, vegetables, and salad. We finished with espresso and grappa. Everything was wonderful and expertly prepared, just as you imagine authentic Italian cuisine to be. The only possible criticism is that the vegetables were a little too soft for my taste. In the end, we paid €67 for two people and were more than full and extremely satisfied. Incidentally, all the other diners were Italian; we were the only tourists. Highly recommended.

10/04/2026: What a fantastic little venue, staff were very helpful, food was so delicious 😋 would highly recommend for everyone to try.

12/04/2026: The first and second courses are very good. The pizza, although also very good, doesn't make the top three, leaving room for the first and second courses, but overall, you can't leave unsatisfied. It's worth noting that the pasta and pizza dough are made entirely in-house, and they also offer gluten-free options (always made in-house). The quality is truly top-notch, and the service is simply impeccable. For example, dishes shared among multiple people are already divided in the kitchen, so the customer doesn't have to halve and "transfer" the food, which is a very high-quality detail. Regarding prices, despite being centrally located in Pistoia, they remain quite reasonable, and there's no need to worry about leaving hungry given the (personally) generous portions. Overall, an excellent place.

11/04/2026: The service was fast and friendly.

12/11/2025: The place is great and very close to the Prati hotel, the staff is extremely nice and cheerful. All recommendations to visit, and it's not too expensive

19/10/2025: What an absolute pleasure to dine here. Great pizza (served only after 7pm), as well as great lasagne, paninis, and wine/cocktails. The prices are incredibly reasonable and the setting is friendly and casual. Special mention to the waiter (the bald gentleman), who was exceedingly polite, accommodating, and patient with food and drink orders. Everything we had was delicious. This is a great spot to get a meal, or just stop for a drink (as of October 2025, aperol spritz are only €5!). If you’re in Montecatini for a night or two, this place deserves a stop!

04/01/2026: Gluten-free PARADISE, with intense yet delicate flavors, a blend of tradition, innovation, and a love of good food. This isn't just a sandwich shop; you'll find wonderful, unique and delicious appetizers, complete dishes, unique desserts, and incredibly delicious pinsas. I wanted to try everything. Everything is gluten-free and lactose-free, and there are tons of vegan and vegetarian options. Heaven! 😍 Thanks to Rosa, her daughter, and all the staff. See you soon!

14/12/2025: We stopped at the "Grazie Rosa" sandwich shop after a tough match: we couldn't have chosen a better way to eat! Incredible sandwiches and a wide selection of gluten-free beers (with an exclusive Christmas version); the lager was also very good. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming: when we return to Prato, we'll definitely know where to go for lunch! ♥️♥️♥️

05/12/2025: It was recommended to us, and we were right to follow it! Pici with artichokes (which I absolutely recommend) was truly amazing!! My son had the duck breast and was very, very satisfied. The place is very small, with a Tuscan inn feel, the owner is friendly and kind, and the dishes are freshly prepared with care and passion, which you can taste in the flavors. I highly recommend it, and I hope to see you soon!

04/11/2025: A warm welcome awaits you at this restaurant, which isn't very large but serves good quality food, especially the fried cod. The wine is also excellent. I recommend it.

17/03/2026: We had lunch at this restaurant for the first time. It's a quiet place, a beautiful, typical mountain setting, and very charming both inside and out. Delicious food, homemade cuisine, and typical local products, all very good. The prices are reasonable. The staff is friendly and attentive. If you're in the area, stop by; you won't regret it...I'll definitely be back!

03/03/2026: Welcoming and family atmosphere. Typical Pistoia mountain dishes of excellent quality. We will definitely be back.
