I migliori ristoranti in Siena

29/07/2024: Outstanding! We spent a few weeks in Tuscany, seeking out the best restaurants we could find. We ended our trip with a week in Castellina in Chanti and came across Osteria Volpaia a short drive away. Despite having visited a handful of Michelin restaurants during our stay, this stood out, by far, as the best resturant we came across. We booked to visit on the Tuesday evening, hoping to try the tasting menu, not realising that this menu would need to be booked in advance. We were initially apprehensive to book the same restaurant for a second night to try the tasting menu, but after only a mouthful of the Duck Ragu, I was convinced that it would be worth it. By the time we got to the Pistachio Gelato (worth a visit all by itself) we were discussing cancelling other reservations later in the week so we could be sure to be able to return. We returned on the Friday evening, our last evening in Tuscany, to be greeted like old friends. I understand that the menu varies depending on the season, and the ingredients available at the time, as everything is sourced from their own kitchen garden and local meat providers. We received an 8 course menu, which was truely outstanding. There are some dishes that I would normally not order on a menu, as I am generally not a fan of fish or pork, however there are certain chefs with whom you know you are in safe hands and I would not have missed any part of this menu. Every part was perfect, and with every bite it was obvious that Filippo is not only incredibly skilled, but also passionate about making beautiful food. Martina and Asif were incredible hosts, and despite each course seemingly being ready as soon as we were ready for it, we ended up spending almost 5 hours at the restaurant, chatting with them about food, learning about the ways in which it was prepared, discussing the beautiful wines, and hearing about life in Volpaia. I could not speak more highly of the entire experience. We certainly hope to be able to return soon.

28/07/2024: Siamo andati in otto amici per pranzo e siamo rimasti tutti estasiati da questo ristorante. Da dove cominciare? Il menù è molto interessante, con piatti della tradizione locale, ma anche piatti con verdure dal loro orto cucinate con grande maestria. Abbiamo apprezzato la fiorentina grigliata in modo perfetto, ma anche l’eccellente risotto con zucchine e burro di arachidi (lo raccomandiamo), gli antipasti con lingua o roast beef, la vellutata di finocchio con porro fritto e ravanello fermentato (sublime) e la meravigliosa insalato al forno con carota in agro, demi-glacé di verdure e miso di ceci. E i dolci? Divini, provare la panna cotta di zucca ed il gelato artigianale. Lo staff è molto cordiale e ci ha trattato benissimo. Ma non possiamo dimenticare il vino! Top, top, top! Il Chianti naturalmente, ma anche lo spumante e il loro vermentino, prezzo più che abbordabili. Dobbiamo dire che in una giornata molto calda è stato estremante piacevole poter scegliere anche piatti con verdure, con il lusso che provengono direttamente dall’orto! Da provare assolutamente!!! Rapporto qualità/prezzo eccellente.

06/03/2024: This restaurant is no more than a handful of tables located outdoors in a tiny piazza off Via Dei Montanini, a stone's trow from the Piazza de Campo. At first glance, it looked charming enough. But looks can be deceiving. We didn't make dinner reservations for the evening of our arrival in Siena - a busy Saturday in September. Everywhere we called was fully booked. Except this restaurant. That in itself should have been big red flag. The weather was unseasonably warm, so an outdoor terrace seems like a great idea. In fact the ambiance is quite charming. But the food... oh my! The menu is very simple and contains Tuscan classics. It was presented to us on a grimy sheet of paper. No more than a handful of dishes. And rather overpriced as others have noted. We had the Bruchetta, Tagliatelle alla cinghiale, and veal piccatta. The food was horrible. So was the service. And the bill was as bad as the rest. Disappointing.

25/08/2024: Location splendida, da vedere assolutamente. Piatti con materie prime ottime, non prende pieni voti solo per delle piccolissime disattenzioni nel servizio, che non hanno assolutamente complicato la splendida serata

13/07/2024: Ottimo posto, ci ha riconciliato con il mondo!! Personale gentilissimo, un responsabile davvero simpatico che ci ha accolto con competenza e professionalità , in una location fantastica. Abbiamo mangiato un primo molto gustoso così come la carne e i contorni buonissimi! Anche se non torneremo nella struttura di cui fa parte, se passeremo da queste parti sicuramente verremo a mangiare qui. Complimenti allo chef e allo staff! Consigliato.

25/07/2024: Lunch with my spouse Food was delicious. coffee very good. Service was wonderful. thank you for the special gift. With love from canada.

19/07/2024: La nourriture est correct mais nous faire payer 20euros de frais de couvert et nous mettre la pression pour payer je le garde en travers de la gorge Je ne recommande pas rien que pour cette pratique

25/08/2024: So sorry for this honest review.. 😔 4cheese pizza was excellent, so was the atmosphere, but that's it.. 😢 We ordered raviolies - 4 pieces were delivered, just mediocre.. the antipasti egg - sorry, but I cook my eggs better in the morning. The pasta with Montepulciano wine - looked bad and it tasted... well it didn't taste good at all. Service was ok, but nothing special. All in all, it was our last dinner in Tuscany and it was just not good at all unfortunately.. the place has potential, it looks great and the backyard is very private and nice, but kitchen really has to improve to be successful..

20/08/2024: We were attracted to the restaurant by the suggestive and intimate environment, we were immediately greeted by very kind and helpful staff. The menu offers a wide choice, with generous and quality portions. The bill was a pleasant surprise as it went well beyond our expectations given the location, the quality of the products and the abundance (I recommend the cold cuts platter, the tartare and the pork belly). I highly recommend this place, we will definitely be back!

05/08/2024: Unfortunately, there was only a small dollop of cream on the pistachio croissant instead of being filled with it. Plus it was dry. The cappuccino was quite good and the tomato mozzarella croissant too. Unfortunately it smelled a bit bad outside, which of course the restaurant can't do anything about. Still, it shortened our visit.

04/08/2024: Really bad coffee, so little flavour. Plenty of better options nearby.

25/07/2024: It's very good place, must visit and eat

10/07/2024: Delicious and high quality kebab.

16/08/2024: Restaurant inside a hotel. Excellent local products and very generous portions. We were very satisfied with the dinner (delicious pappardelle alla cinta senese). Advised!!

16/08/2024: We were positively surprised by this restaurant, inside the executive hotel. The portions are generous. Fast service.

10/07/2024: Posto che ti lascia senza fiato, una vista meravigliosa sulla Val D’Orcia, ottimo per eventi, un pranzo ma per il camping non ci siamo. Partendo dalla strada per arrivarci, strada bianca, molto stretta quindi in camper scomoda, sdruccevole e sterrata. Le piazzole sono poche, piccole ma ben divise, pulite e immerse tra gli animali che hanno in una piccola fattoria. Ma i servizi? Una doccia per sesso, accanto ad un bagno ma non solo, bagno accanto al ristorante quindi unico per tutti i clienti. Questa cosa la trovo al limite dell’assurdo. Prezzo alto ma nella media per la zona di Pienza.

06/07/2024: What an amazing place. We have currently been in Tuscany for a week and this was a true highlight. We brought the children to go riding (they rode the little pony Luna who is darling) and then we sat down to the most beautiful Tuscan lunch. A heavenly spot with amazing attention to detail (riding, service, food - everything!). We absolutely loved soaking in the views over a glass of wine, homemade pasta, divine, cheese and meat board, and home made soft ice cream, whilst the children ran on the grass in pure joy, stopping here and there to say hello to the receptions little dog. What a joy. This was much more than a lovely stable and place for lunch. It oozes good taste and authentic Italy in an uplifted and smart setting. Thank you and see you again soon.
