The verdict
La Terra di Nello takes the lead
La Terra di Nello scores 8,9/10, ahead of Cristall (7,8). Rural osteria in Castiglione della Pescaia: entirely regional Tuscan menu (pici with lardo, pappardelle with chianina ragù, bistecca alla fiorentina), about €40 per person. Country and rustic atmosphere, claimed without gastronomic pretension.
Choose Cristall if…
- your budget matters: from €20 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,9). The menu names salumi Toscani (€15), I sapori della maremma (€12) and Lo sfizio del buttero, but it is mostly made up of pizze, burgers and generic Italian dishes.
