I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterraneanella città Montecatini-terme della Pistoia

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.

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.

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.

05/09/2025: We ate very well. The dishes were amazing. The meat was exquisite. The staff was very friendly. The price was fair.

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

27/07/2025: Moeder en dochter doen dit puur uit liefde voor het vak. Moeder als kok en dochter als bediende, op persoonlijk niveau. De pasta carbonara was buitengewoon lekker, terwijl ik een regelmatiger carbonara-eter ben. Nog nooit zo lekker gegeten en heel authentieke ervaring zonder toeristische focus. Ook veel locals komen hier eten als vaste klanten. Warme sfeer, echte aanrader!

25/07/2025: Si quieres una experiencia gastronómica Italiano tradicional en la Toscana entonces ven aquí. Sí IT es un servicio lento, ya que solo hay nonna cocina en el ITchen y un servidor (la hija), pero es fabuloso. Tómate tu tiempo y disfruta del ambiente, nos encantó IT. La pasta gf estaba genial, el filete estaba tan tierno y el vino precioso, la crema de caramelo era la mejor que he probado. Disfruta del ritmo, IT es más lento pero relájate y sigue la corriente. Nos encantó IT y hemos reservado para volver!

07/10/2025: Everything was exceptional: original, top-quality dishes, excellent wine selection. Very friendly staff. I'll definitely be back!

22/08/2025: We were there on August 15th, the service and food were exceptional, fresh and of excellent quality.

25/04/2025: Prima volta in questo ristorante. Pur essendo affollato in giorno di festa, ho trovato un buon servizio, una ottima qualità del menù e molta gentilezza. Lo consiglio anche a persone celiache.

25/03/2025: Locale ben curato e incantevole, servizio impeccabile, per non parlare del cibo, buonissimo e di qualità. Consigliatissimo,sia per cene in compagnia che di coppia.

31/10/2025: This restaurant has excellent food, friendly but at the same time very precise service, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for spending the evening together, a 4 and a half star restaurant that you absolutely must try. Congratulations
