Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,6). Generic seafood menu, with a few Tuscan touchstones (pici with duck ragù, cicoria ripassata, friggitelli); no Maremma product named.

Tosco's word
La Proposta Ristorante wins on cuisine with a 9.0 against 8.7, and its setting at 8.5 will appeal to fish and truffle lovers, with homemade pasta between €16 and €22. Capanna del Buttero speaks to you more if you're looking for wood-fired grilled meat, clear local typicity (cinghiale, scottona) and a better-rated service at 8.7, for the same price of €35 per person; its large cuts sold by the hectogram without a displayed price require a more flexible budget. For a dinner rooted in the Maremma, choose Capanna; for a Mediterranean table without regional exoticism, La Proposta.
