I migliori ristorantinella città San giovanni d'asso della Siena

09/07/2024: Our hotel concierge recommended this place or we would have NEVER found it or thought to go here. On the main street in the tiny town of Montisi, it looks to be a small caffe or deli from the outside, but you must go left and up the stairs to the restaurant. There are maybe 8-10 tables in 2 small dining areas. They start you with a complimentary glass of white wine which is delightful. There are no written menus, rather the servers come and tell you what they have for each of the courses. You have to kind of "hope" the prices aren't anything outrageous. But be assured, dining here will not break your bank - all menu items are reasonable. And delicious! The walls are lined with bottles of (mostly) local wine and you can peruse if you wish but there is also no written wine list. They asked us what type of wine we wanted - we said RED, something local - and they recommended a lovely, very affordable bottle from Montalcino. We had a delicious meat and cheese platter to start, some pasta dishes (the tagliatelle with garlic sauce was YUM), then I had a roasted chicken entree and my husband had a "meat loaf". The chocolate Cantucci for dessert was unique and delicious! NOT TO MENTION, Geoffrey Rush (actor from Pirates of the Caribbean fame) was sitting at a table right next to us. !! Apparently he lives in the area.

06/07/2024: We were exploring nearby towns on stumbled on Montisi which quaint but a little sleepy. We decided to look for this restaurant based on its ratings and had a wonderful experience. We were initially put off by the casual bar downstairs but once we found our way to the restaurant upstairs it was much nicer. Still some what plain in terms of ambiance but it is quickly made up for by the personality of the host Jean Luca. ( not sure if I have his name spelled correctly) He pulled up a chair up out table and chatted for a few minutes. Word to the wise.. there is no written menu…he verbally reviews all the courses and then takes your order…so you better pay attention! The food, wine and service were all great.

26/07/2024: Everything truly exceptional. Location, comfort, kindness of the owners, breakfast, flexibility. I definitely also recommend purchasing the fantastic oil produced by their mill. We also had dinner with them twice, you couldn't ask for better. Thanks for the wonderful holiday! We'll see you again for sure

24/07/2024: Delicious food. What beautiful (many vegetarian) dishes and what a beautiful location with beautiful views.

12/08/2024: Fantastic food, great location ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

21/07/2024: Silent position outside the ground circuit. Restaurant with outdoor tables. Quality and courtesy welcome and service. Excellent local menu. In the photos tagliolini with truffle and cinta fillet with caramelized onion. Advised.

03/08/2024: Tuscan agriturismo at its best! An original vineyard experience without the posh nonsense. If you look for great wines and simple original apartments, this is the place to go! Signora Donatella seems to save a great tradition by very carefully inviting guests. Thanks to the crew!

02/08/2024: The fattoria was incredible, all the staff very friendly, available and respectful. The restaurant was my favorite! It’s quiet, there are two well-kept swimming pools, the vineyard tours and wine tastings were great! We also did a cooking class with Patricia, it was fun! The only downside was the room which did not have air conditioning but a ceiling fan which made a lot of noise even though it was 37°C 😅 otherwise it was a perfect stay!

02/06/2024: Excellent homemade food, relaxing and pleasant environment.

28/04/2024: A beautiful place, surrounded by greenery and nature. Perfect climate and very friendly staff. Simple and good Tuscan food. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to eat in total relaxation and enjoy a beautiful view. My little dog Byron had a lot of fun :) Thanks everyone. See you next time ♥️
