I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Pistoia

15/11/2025: Incredible culinary experience, everything was perfect, both the food and the attention from the staff. Highly recommended!!

13/11/2025: Seeing is believing! Under the table, an authoritative figure in the food world has given his approval...

29/10/2025: Rustic atmosphere, hospitality too. Everything is ok, except for one slightly shameful thing (and it's not the only place where it happens): an ice cream (three scoops of cream and chocolate which costs 2 euros at the ice cream shop) 5 euros. They also sell ice cream in a special ice cream department, I doubt they charge such crazy prices.

21/10/2025: A cool summer evening. Pizza with friends, away from the summer heat. Excellent pizza with well-seasoned toppings and a delicious dessert.

11/11/2025: After returning for the fourth time in the last four years, with about a year between each visit, I can confidently say that Il Pellegrino is now an absolute must-try in Val di Nievole. Without a doubt, it's the best steak you can eat from Pistoia to Lucca, and in my opinion, it even beats many Florentine steaks. The quality of the meat is top-notch, but what makes the difference is their way of cooking and seasoning it; every four times, it melted in my mouth! All the other ingredients are also top-notch; mushrooms and truffles with an authentic and intense flavor. The restaurant, after its recent renovation, is elegant and welcoming. Just as elegant, kind, welcoming, and very competent are all the staff, from the owners Lorenzo and Mirko, to the entire staff!! Put your GPS on and go there; it's a five-minute drive from the center of Montecatini, but you won't regret it! The price is also very fair for the quality of what you eat and drink... Recommended above all!!

08/11/2025: The food wasn't bad, except for the overpriced appetizer portions, which were small for a group of 12 people plus a boy. The steak was decent, but the worst part was the surprise bill... because €80 each for an appetizer and a steak seems like a lot to me. It's true that we drank seven bottles of €20 Chianti, but where's the €1200?! 4 crostini each, a few mixed cold cuts, side dishes with the steaks, dip, and two potatoes. In the end, it seemed logical to ask for a receipt; I would have done things differently.

23/10/2025: Special dinner, we felt like family. Well-structured wine list, top-quality meat, and porcini mushrooms picked directly by the owner. Everything spectacular.

23/10/2025: Spectacular dinner! Gorgeous setting, impeccable service, and a menu… out of this world! Pici with pistachio pesto and truffle are sensational. 100% recommended

18/10/2025: A welcoming pizzeria with fast service, and above all, the best pizza I've ever had in our area. The flavor, lightness, and quality of the ingredients combine to make it a delight for the palate!!! The pizza chefs are excellent, and the service is excellent!

09/09/2025: We happened upon it by chance, returning from a long day, and found a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The staff were incredibly kind, and what can we say about the pizza: WONDERFUL 😍!!!! Excellent, light. We all had the same thought.... we'd love to have more 😂😂 You are in our hearts 🤗, and if we ever come back, it will be a must-try! Thank you so much 😊

09/11/2025: Excellent dinner with friends, simple but quality dishes. We'll be back.

06/11/2025: We celebrated my wife's fiftieth birthday with the family at the trattoria. We found the food excellent, the ossobuco was amazing... the staff were very kind and welcoming, the atmosphere is simple but warm, just what you expect to find when you go to a trattoria. Recommended 💯😉

22/10/2025: Profoundly disappointing experience. This is an old-school restaurant with a balanced menu and authentic staff — something I usually appreciate. However, in nearly 11 years of Russia’s war against Ukraine, it’s natural to expect a basic level of sensitivity toward Ukrainians who do not want to be addressed in Russian. Hearing this language is painful — it is associated with blood and death. Despite our polite request not to be spoken to in Russian, the restaurant sent a female staff member who insisted on using it, even delivering a short speech to justify her choice. That response showed a profound lack of empathy and cultural awareness. A place that values hospitality should respect its guests’ boundaries and the tragic reality that defines them. There are plenty of other places in the same price range with better food, service, and atmosphere, where respect and understanding still mean something.

20/10/2025: One of the best restaurants in Montecatini. Exceptional food and service. Refined wine list. A must for anyone visiting the area.

15/10/2025: We found this restaurant while strolling through the streets of Pistoia, and I can say it was a great choice. Without a doubt, my favorite restaurant of all those we visited in Tuscany. Homemade food, freshly prepared. Excellent service and a very peaceful atmosphere. 10/10 value for money. We ordered spaghetti carbonara, vegetable lasagna, and tagliata with potatoes. For dessert, we had a cream cake, and with our coffee, they gave us a couple of shots of limoncello. In short, if you're in Pistoia, don't miss it.

30/08/2025: Our large group was greeted with a smile at this small restaurant, and we ate (and drank) very well. The couple who run the restaurant were very helpful and provided us with a wonderful experience of Tuscan family cooking. I recommend it!

03/11/2025: A truly pleasant surprise, generous dishes served by excellent waiters. The dishes were plentiful and well-served, and the wine was excellent and reasonably priced. I recommend it and will be back soon.

07/09/2025: We had dinner at La Mandragola and it was outstanding. The food was absolutely delicious, matched only by the exceptional service. The setting in the courtyard is warm and comfortable, making the whole experience feel special. A memorable spot in San Gimignano that I’d happily return to.

14/10/2025: Excellent restaurant located inside a city service station, excellent food, reasonable price

01/10/2025: Because when you feel at home and you eat even better, what more do you want?

05/07/2025: If you’re in town, you must come here! The food was absolutely delicious! We had the Tuscan Steak and it was tasty and melted in your mouth. Make sure you get dessert too, you will not be disappointed with anything on the menu! Highly recommend!!

30/06/2025: Spectacular view from the terrace. Very good food.

19/10/2025: On this beautiful sunny day, we took a tour and stopped in Buggiano Castello...then for lunch we came to this restaurant...a stunning panoramic view...rustic and well-kept atmosphere...traditional Tuscan dishes with a slightly revisited twist...friendly service with extreme kindness in serving the dishes...well-combined and tasty dishes...the fillet I ate was cooked to perfection...prices are average for the area...definitely worth trying...we'll be back...

11/10/2025: Restaurant with a spectacular view. Very welcoming and helpful owner, generous dishes prepared with quality ingredients. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended!

09/11/2025: Nice place, good service, and very good food. A few issues with the dinner lowered my rating: halfway through the meal, I was told they were out of mussels. My €15 mussel platter had a lot of empty shells and about eight mussels. When I pointed this out, I was told, "That seems strange." No apology, no discount, nothing. They described the dessert of the day as off-menu, so we ordered it, and then they told us right afterward that it was gone from lunch (a clear sign of poor communication between the kitchen and the dining room). I liked the place, and if they had handled it differently, I would have returned, but I fear that won't be the case. A bit high in value for money, but average.

27/10/2025: A beautiful atmosphere. Excellent cuisine, worth trying.

01/11/2025: I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant and was truly thrilled. The service was impeccable: attentive, friendly, and professional, without ever being intrusive. The atmosphere is both welcoming and refined, perfect for a pleasant and relaxing evening. A culinary experience I highly recommend to anyone seeking flavor, quality, and attentive service. The menu is anything but banal and predictable, and the desserts are excellent! I'll definitely be back!

15/09/2025: We had a delicious meal at this restaurant. Highly recommended.

06/11/2025: A good restaurant for a quick lunch. The food is good, with a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan options, and very friendly staff. Recommended.

03/11/2025: Very good, fast and the food is of excellent quality and if I may say quantity
