The verdict
Bistrot 19 takes the lead
Bistrot 19 scores 8,5/10, ahead of Ristorante Antica Dogana (8,1) et Montecristo (7,9). In Grosseto, you'll find Tuscan cuisine with named products (chianina, Morellino) and a homemade giardiniera. Drawback: the menu also mixes generic dishes and a New York Cheesecake, which dilutes the regional typicity.
