The verdict
Convivial takes the lead
Convivial scores 8,2/10, ahead of Valbona (7,7) et Il Terziere di Poggio Fiorentino (7,1). In Tuscania, Andrea Astolfi's restaurant is rooted in the Tuscia: cinghiale, tartufo, Picchiapò and patate alla viterbese, in a dining room seating around fifteen. Caveat: apart from cheeses at 10 €, no menu prices are given, which limits the assessment of value for money at 50 €.
Choose Convivial if…
- you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (8,2), across all criteria
- you trust travellers: 9,8/10 from 54 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: rapport qualité/prix (7,2). At 50 € per person in the upper range, the elaborate preparations using the named ingredients (tuorlo e tartufo, vitellone) justify the price, but almost no menu prices are listed.
Choose Il Terziere di Poggio Fiorentino if…
- your budget matters: from €25 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
Choose Valbona if…
- valbona mise sur le poisson de mer, des pâtes du pastificio agricolo Mancini et une terrasse vue mer à Castiglione della Pescaia
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.
