I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Toscana

15/04/2026: I went to eat at this restaurant on the recommendation of local friends and based on the positive reviews (4.4 stars), but honestly, I can't understand how anyone could like such a place. I'm from Naples, so I'm used to a whole different level of cuisine, but here it's not just about taste: the quality of the products and the condition of the place were truly disappointing. The restaurant was packed despite it being a Tuesday night, but I had a terrible impression from the moment I entered: the place was tiny, tables were packed tightly together, and the smell of food lingered (I left with smelly clothes). There was also a cat at the entrance, which immediately made me consider leaving, but unfortunately it was already 10:00 PM. The place overall seemed unclean and neglected: old and dirty doors, and a single bathroom for men, women, and disabled people, with a decent but barely functioning sink. As for the food, it was a terrible experience from start to finish. The appetizer of cured meats, which were supposed to be Tuscan, was absolutely subpar, the portions very small, and above all, unpleasant. The sliced ​​beef, which should be a highlight in Tuscany, was completely tasteless and served very raw, even though I'd asked for it to be medium rare: it wasn't even rare, but practically raw. The side dish (caponata) was also truly awful; I left it all on my plate and even mentioned it. I also left the meat and didn't even ask for it to be cooked more; I just wanted to leave as quickly as possible. The wine (a €22 Chianti) only made the experience worse. I didn't order dessert, coffee, or liqueur. In conclusion, the place is small, not very clean, and the food is very low quality. I don't understand how it gets all these positive reviews: if it were possible, I'd give it zero stars instead of one.

14/04/2026: Antica Osteria di Bazzino is a true gem located at Via Giovanni Montorsoli, 63, in Poggibonsi. This quaint restaurant manages to convey the authentic atmosphere of Tuscan tradition, with its walls adorned with old photographs that tell the story of the city. As soon as you enter, you sense a warm welcome and attention to detail that make the dining experience special. Service was surprisingly quick, allowing us to enjoy our dishes without long waits, which is always a plus. As for the food, the fillets with porcini mushrooms and vinegar were a true masterpiece. They were cooked perfectly: tender and flavorful, each bite melted in your mouth, enhanced by a wonderful combination of flavors. We paired our meal with a glass of house wine, which proved to be an excellent pairing, further enriching the dining experience. In short, Antica Osteria di Bazzino is a place where Tuscan culinary tradition blends with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend a visit to anyone in the area who wants to enjoy a good meal in a charming setting.

10/06/2026: Don't let first impressions fool you, the pizzas are spectacular at bargain prices. The coffee is top-notch. Meals for three people with drinks for 32 euros... that's rare. Thank you so much 😊

07/06/2026: We ordered three white pizzas to go. 4 cheeses, vegetables, sausage, and broccoli rabe, and I have to say they were very good. The owner was friendly and the pizzas were prepared on time. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK

13/03/2026: Albi is a super star waiter he was outstanding with smile on his face all the time

16/05/2026: I'd like to share our terrible experience at a place where we've been going for years to eat excellent pizza. Unfortunately, last night we received terrible treatment from the owner. There were nine of us, and we had booked well in advance for 8:00 PM. When we arrived at the pizzeria, they told us our table was occupied and we'd have to wait outside. That alone is questionable. However, we waited patiently. After waiting 25 minutes outside, I asked again, pointing out that we had booked and that it wasn't fair to make us wait outside for half an hour. The owner justified himself by saying that the customers at our table had promised to eat in half an hour, so it wasn't his fault if they were late. I pointed out that the pizzeria should allow at least an hour between servings, which prompted the owner to aggressively yell at me not to let him lose his patience. I didn't understand. Instead of acknowledging his mistake and apologizing, my daughter and I were accused of rudeness. We, who had booked regularly and were simply asked to honor our reservation, made them lose their patience! 🤔😡 Obviously, after that, we went to another pizzeria where we received much better treatment, although, alas, it didn't take much. Highly not recommended.

24/04/2026: Good experience for a quick pizza.

03/06/2026: It's worth seeking out and knowing where it is, but once you've tried it, you'll never forget it. It's the classic place where you eat well and spend little, with a perfect table setting and competent staff. I recommend it...maybe make a reservation. The review above is from 7 years ago; I returned on June 1, 2026, and I confirm what I'd already written. I hope many of you will go there. At the moment, you can also eat outside; they have parking, which is located by following the uphill path behind the restaurant. They continue to cook well and keep the prices low. I'll definitely be back next time (it's not exactly close). I continue to recommend it.

21/05/2026: Good restaurant with good local food even at fixed price

17/05/2026: It's a shame about those extra 3 euros on the bill.

12/05/2026: Nice restaurant in smaller village. Note: Park along the road before you get to the restaurant since no parking up by restaurant. Very large dining room with lots of tables. Felt like a nice family establishment with very friendly service and a good amount of dishes to choose from. Also an long wine list.

19/04/2026: The pesto pizza was worth the crowds and the wait.

19/04/2026: a good street side bar and pizza place , the pizza is tasty and the drink is good too

21/05/2026: A restaurant worth trying and returning to every season. Impeccable service, excellent speed, excellent prices, and truly excellent quality. The menu is extensive, suitable for everyone.

13/05/2026: Excellent seafront location and very friendly and fast service. The cuisine is decent, with a few original dishes, such as the pasta with clams and chicory or the ricotta and amaretti cake. Good without being extraordinary. Prices are reasonable for the season and the area: €80 for two appetizers, two main courses, one dessert, two coffees, a half liter of red wine, and a bottle of mineral water.

19/05/2026: Very good pizza of all types and dough and impeccable service...Gio
