I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea 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!

04/01/2026: Little to say, a lot to experience 😋

30/12/2025: Always a pleasure. Excellent quality.

04/01/2026: Wonderful experience! I've never had a better Florentine steak. Frankly, the price was even too low for the quality of the food we ate. I HIGHLY recommend it!

30/12/2025: We chose this restaurant on a beautiful Sunday in November, inspired by the numerous positive reviews, and I must say we were completely satisfied! We sat in the second room, more modern and welcoming than the entrance, and immediately appreciated the elegant yet unpretentious atmosphere and the kindness of the staff. Pappardelle with wild boar ragù, fried porcini mushrooms, a delicious roasted porcini mushroom cap, and the inevitable steak! A good red wine accompanied it, and a cream-filled millefeuille for dessert. What can I say... it was an absolutely satisfying lunch. We waited a bit for the meat, probably because the place was crowded, but it was absolutely worth it: quality produce, cooked properly, and beautifully presented... Excellent! The pappardelle with wild boar thrilled the kids, and the mushrooms were the icing on the cake of a lunch that simply leaves you wanting more. Considering the quality of the product, the bill seemed fair for what we ordered. Parking might be a bit difficult along the road that runs through this small corner of Nievole; I'd recommend arriving 10 minutes before rush hour. Otherwise, "Il Pellegrino" keeps all its promises and offers customers a totally positive experience! Top marks!

06/12/2025: The best steak and mushrooms in Pistoia. I really have nothing else to say. Come and discover this incredible place!

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.

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.

24/11/2025: We ate very well and I recommend it to you.

09/11/2025: Excellent food Takeout available too.

16/12/2025: Beautiful and well-kept place, we can eat inside and outside, beautiful terrace from which you can see the landscape, excellent place to eat Tuscan food, very good appetizers and very good first and second courses, typical meat and fish dishes, very kind and professional both the staff and the owner as soon as you arrive to order, the staff goes out of their way to make you feel at home and satisfy your requests, clean restrooms, good prices, large parking lot, that's why I gave it 4 stars, I recommend trying the pizzas and the tagliolini with lobster, they are finger-licking good, and the Cinta Senese pork loin with fried patent and fried porcini mushrooms 😋😋😀

28/11/2025: We come to them every now and then, they make truly remarkable veal and fried food.

25/10/2025: The food is delicious and top-quality. The owners are very kind. The only flaw is the limited variety of desserts.

09/10/2025: Favourite meal in Italia. The twinkling city lights accompanied by the superb and charming service makes the perfect atmosphere to enjoy the layers of flavour in each course which every bite had me falling in love with Italy and everything that gives Tuscany the reputation it has for being the heart of Italian culinary arts and wine.

08/11/2025: The staff is very friendly, the waiters are older but with the energy of 18 years old, congratulations, many of you should learn what kind of attitude towards work should be. The food is delicious. All recommendations

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.

27/12/2025: Extremely delicate and excellent quality dishes... the place, narrow streets of the historic center, can be reached by taking a walk and it is worth it

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.

30/12/2025: Excellent pizza in Pistoia. Don't miss it!

12/12/2025: We returned after a while because we rarely go to the center. The pizza was very good, the desserts superb. The real plus was the atmosphere, truly comfortable, and the truly excellent service.

01/12/2025: Ok, good products, small environment, average service. Maybe a little expensive, especially the €2.50 cover charge, which seems excessive for the location.

19/11/2025: An evening spent with family at this pizzeria that blew me away with the good food—in fact, excellent! I wanted to try the pumpkin and caper pizza! Wow, what a contrast of flavors, I dare say SUBLIME! YOU HAVE TO TRY IT TO BELIEVE IT.
