Da Anna alle Rocchette scores 7,7/10, ahead of L’Arpione (7,2) et Pozzarello (6,5). Fish restaurant in Castiglione della Pescaia, set in a tennis club with a large car park and outdoor tables under the pines. Average price €50 per person, upper range, and no view of the harbour.
Choose Da Anna alle Rocchette if…
- you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (7,7), level with or ahead on rapport qualité/prix et typicité locale
- you trust travellers: 9,2/10 from 473 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
Choose L’Arpione if…
- contemporary Tuscan seafood cuisine by chef Jenel Grigore, with house-made bottarga, pici and trippa alla Fiorentina in Castiglione della Pescaia
Choose Pozzarello if…
- your budget matters: from €29 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,3). Mostly generic seaside menu: Tuscan roots limited to crostini toscani and fagioli al fiasco; few identifiable Maremma dishes.

L'ArpioneJust steps from the seafront and the historic center, a venue described as romantic and well kept, but without a direct sea view: a pleasant setting.
PozzarelloGuest rating 8.9/10 from 1193 reviews: within the top-rated 42% of the catalog.
Why these ratings?
From Anna to the RocchettePrimi at €18 with pasta from the pastificio di Gragnano, secondi at €20-22: a coherent menu, but €50 per person in the upper range.
L'ArpioneDishes priced at €12.5–19, desserts at €6.5, average of €40 per person for a menu featuring named products and house-made bottarga: consistent.
PozzarelloModerately priced menu: paccheri artigianali, gnocchi tagliati a mano or lasagne della casa between 16 and 18 €, mains and named fish, average of 29 € consistent with what is served.
Why these ratings?
From Anna to the RocchetteReimagined pappa di mare, octopus with wild chicory, fish from Castiglione's boats: a genuine local anchorage, without any iconic Maremman dishes.
L'ArpioneTuscan cuisine with pici, trippa alla Fiorentina and a reinterpreted cacciuco, plus local mazzancolle: several regional markers despite a reinterpreted menu.
PozzarelloMostly generic seaside menu: Tuscan roots limited to crostini toscani and fagioli al fiasco; few identifiable Maremma dishes.
