"Incredible steak. Generous portions. Best meal we had in a 2 week holiday in Italy. Some may call the waiter gruff, but we found him professional and somehow "of the area" if that makes sense! Highly recommended!"

"If you want an origin italian place, this is the spot to go. The food is extraclass good. Try the bistecca di manzo! But never mind the waiters. They only speak italian and they take their time until you get served."

"Great simple restaurant in an iconic italian town, the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci. Traditional Tuscan cuisine, great meat, good pizza, classic Tuscan appetizers. Personnel is very courteous, polite and friendly, as long as you behave accordingly. Prices are moderate and very reasonable, especially considering where you are. The small road to the restaurant is a postcard in itself. This is the classic Italian trattoria, so much loved by Italians. Great food"
