The verdict
Taverna di Mozart takes the lead
Taverna di Mozart scores 8,8/10, ahead of Le Chiuse (8,3) et Dai Citti (5,8). In Castiglione d'Orcia, Taverna di Mozart serves Tuscan cuisine with pici, Cinta senese and pecorino di Pienza, and a view over the Val d'Orcia. Drawback: €45 per person in the upper range and access via an unpaved road.
Choose Dai Citti if…
- your budget matters: from €18 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (5,8). Menu mostly generic (kebab, hot dog, hamburger, falafel) with a few classics such as panzanella and piadine; no local product is named.
