Il Canto Del Gallo takes the lead
Il Canto Del Gallo scores 8,8/10, ahead of Bistrot 19 (8,5), Valbona (7,7) et Saloni (6,2). The menu lines up named Maremman dishes (tortelli, pappardelle with wild boar, peposo) and an average price of €35. The main reservation concerns the wine list, which is not specified.
Choose Bistrot 19 if…
- In Grosseto, you'll find Tuscan cuisine featuring named local products (chianina, Morellino) and a homemade giardiniera.

Choose Il Canto Del Gallo if…
- you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (8,8), level with or ahead on rapport qualité/prix et typicité locale
- you prioritise typicité locale (8,8 vs 7,4) : Tortelli maremmani, pappardelle with wild boar, pici, peposo maremmano, braciola al Morellino: menu mostly regional, with named local products.
Choose Saloni if…
- you trust travellers: 9,7/10 from 7 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,9). A few named regional dishes (pinci with lamb ragù, bistecca alla fiorentina, battuta di chianina), but the menu remains mostly Mediterranean and creative.
Choose Valbona if…
- your budget matters: from €30 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,4). The menu is Italian with a focus on sea fish; the salsa verde fiorentina and the worked fish recall the Tuscan coast, but no local products are named.
