I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Arezzo

01/10/2025: “From Butcher Shop Straight to the Table – Unfortunately Without the Detour Through the grill” We chose this restaurant with great anticipation, after all, a butcher shop with a restaurant sounds like pure carnivore heaven! Unfortunately, the visit turned out to be more of a case study in how to scare off diners. The welcome? Well… if a distant, emotionless nod counts as “warm,” then yes, we instantly felt like old friends. The waiter gave off the vibe of someone who had a thousand places he’d rather be, and made sure we could feel that existential crisis in every interaction. Stressed, checked out, and about as interested in us as a cat is in salad. When ordering, the first surprise: the question of how we’d like our steak cooked was never asked. When I politely inquired if I could have it medium, the answer was: “We always do it our way.” Wow! Finally, a restaurant that relieves me of the heavy burden of having my own opinion. The result: a steak that was supposedly medium rare, but in my eyes was closer to still mooing. Presentation? Also a highlight. The prized Bistecca wasn’t placed in the middle of the table, but rather plonked down at the very edge, as if the waiter himself was embarrassed to serve it. Later, when he asked how it was and we explained it was far too raw for us, his reaction was a disinterested “ah”, delivered with the same enthusiasm as someone listening to a weather report. And then? He simply walked away. No concern, no offer, no nothing. Conclusion: If you’ve ever wanted to feel like an unwelcome guest at your own dinner, this is the place. Steak: top. Service: flop. Or to put it differently: in this butcher shop, it’s not just the meat that gets slaughtered.

28/09/2025: We visited this cozy restaurant this evening and, despite not having a reservation, received a very friendly and warm welcome. The food was excellent, the wine superb, and the service equally so. We were delighted and would definitely return. I'd also like to mention that our large dog was also warmly welcomed and was thoughtfully provided with a bowl of fresh water. We thank you very much and look forward to our next visit.

30/08/2025: The food was delicious. The service was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it!

09/10/2025: Very good food, at a very good price. We stayed in Cortona for a week and visited this restaurant on our second day. It was so good and such good value that we came back on our last night. I can particularly reccomend the parpadelle with wild boar sauce, and if you are hungry their Calzone may be the biggest pizza I have ever seen!

30/09/2025: During my vacation, I dined here with friends on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Excellent food, excellent service, and equally excellent customer care. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Cortona! A special thanks to Carlos, who took such good care of us.

04/10/2025: Delicious tagliatelle with white ragù 😋

12/09/2025: A colleague and I were in Sansepolcro for work. Looking for a quiet place to eat, we stumbled upon this typical Tuscan osteria. As soon as we entered, I was immediately struck by a beautiful drum kit—a musical instrument I play—which made me think the owner was a musician as well as a restaurateur, and I wasn't wrong. But let's not beat around the bush and talk about the place and the food instead. We were greeted by a very professional, kind, polite, and above all knowledgeable young woman who offered advice and clarification both during the selection process and when it came time to serve our dishes, clearing up any doubts and concerns. We sat on the outdoor veranda, as it was a beautiful day today, and ordered the menu, which you can easily find online. I won't list it here, but I want to tell you about what I ate! I had a mixed antipasto with delicacies from days gone by, a wonderful warm liver pâté on warm toasted bread, a panzanella like I hadn't had in a long time, not to mention a wonderful crostini with caramelized onions, as well as cold cuts and excellent cheeses. Then I ordered pici all'aglione, made with a sauce of green tomatoes and, of course, aglione, on which I was advised to grate some fresh Pienza pecorino, grind some pepper, and drizzle with a drizzle of Tuscan DOP olive oil! The pasta wasn't dry, but fresh pici with a fantastic consistency. They were perfect, perhaps—and I'm not exaggerating—the best pici all'aglione I've ever eaten! I want to compliment chef Batterista and his staff. Highly recommended.

26/09/2025: We went there with some friends to eat a pizza, which I would describe as really good: not thick, well-topped, crispy, excellent, whether Kamut, wholemeal or wheat flour. The place is often full, I would recommend booking, large parking and quality service, I can only recommend it, obviously there are not only pizzas but you can eat everything and with satisfaction.

11/09/2025: A recommendation from a friend. I wasn’t disappointed. Excellent pizza, I like these thin and crispy pizza bases. The usual classics and a few novelty toppings. Booking advisable at the weekend.

12/10/2025: We chose this venue for my daughter's 18th birthday. It's a beautiful place, with a stunning atmosphere and view. The service was impeccable, and the owner, Lucio, was incredibly helpful and kind, both before and during the party. We also had a wonderful meal. We highly recommend it!

22/09/2025: A very pleasant surprise The location, owners, and staff were truly top-notch Excellent food, served with the typical local friendliness Thank you

18/09/2025: We stumbled upon it by chance, and immediately found the atmosphere very welcoming. Quality homemade food, excellent value. For lovers of thin pizza, this is the place to be. Impeccable service. Clean.

04/09/2025: My wife and I stumbled upon this restaurant on a Google recommendation. It's not a large but well-maintained restaurant, with outdoor seating in the center of town. For starters, we had ricotta and spinach ravioli with butter and sage, and a cream of truffle and porcini mushrooms, both delicious. For main course, grilled chicken breast for two, with a side of lemon spinach and French fries. For dessert, we had tiramisu (homemade) and caramel panna cotta, water, and a Coke. Everything was truly well-cooked, combined with friendly and professional service, so there were no long waits despite the crowded restaurant. The bill, €50, proved to be a truly excellent value. Highly recommended!

31/10/2025: Simple tavern, very simple good food

28/07/2025: A beautiful mountain hotel in the Casentinesi Forest Park, nestled in a beautifully restored small village. Managed with great kindness and cordiality, with particular attention to respect for the environment and its guests, it offers a delicious breakfast, some of which is freshly prepared. A swimming pool and parking are also available. A truly enchanting place.

12/10/2025: We went for lunch today. The chef and the person who served us were extremely kind. We had two calamaratas, a burrata ravioli, a rice gnudo, a mussel pepper dish, and a hamburger. The dishes were truly delicious and beautifully presented. The chef also gave us a truly special dessert: an extra portion of ravioli for my daughter, who was still hungry. He also brought my wife a sample of calamarata, as he put it, "so she wouldn't go away craving it." It's rare to find such quality and kindness toward customers as the charming chef Stefano showed us. We had a good laugh over the combination of local cuisine and refined food, which is truly rare. The price was more than fair. When and if we're in the area, we'll definitely be back.

01/10/2025: Here you eat really well, everything is there, try it and believe it... fair prices

06/09/2025: Small hotel. First floor, completely renovated. Impeccable service.

01/07/2025: Wir kommen seit Jahren zu diesem schönen Ort. Wer allerdings einen guten Kaffee oder Cappuccino erwartet wird schwer enttäuscht. Kapselkaffee in Italien widerspricht diesem schönen Land. Mit der schlechteste Cappuccino/ Latte Macchiato den wir je getrunken haben. Dann lieber keinen Kaffee anbieten. Die Bedienung war wir immer freundlich. Der Garden selbst wunderschön

15/09/2025: Splendid view of the valley, warm welcome, compliments to the chef. Only complaint: we would have liked to see some traditional Tuscan dishes as well.

29/08/2025: Absolutely top also has, what many people don't know, a small shop where you can do cheap shopping from 6:30 a.m.

05/10/2025: Excellent bar with a wide selection of sweet and savoury items.

27/05/2025: We chose Ventura catering for our children's baptism and we were more than satisfied! Everything was delicious, among the guests there were also celiac people who were very happy with what they ate. The staff were very kind and at our complete disposal... congratulations! Proud to have chosen you!

21/07/2025: Location meravigliosa con il Castello di Poppi proprio di fronte, piatti ottimi, personale gentile e preparato, prezzi nella media.

08/07/2025: Sencillamente el hotel y restaurante más acogedor que jamás hayas encontrado. La última vez que estuve aquí fue hace 6 años. ¡La bienvenida, la habitación y la comida fueron tan buenas como siempre!
