The verdict

Il Canto Del Gallo takes the lead

Il Canto Del Gallo scores 8,8/10, ahead of Il Turchese (8,1) et Poco Loco (7,0). The menu lines up named Maremman dishes (tortelli, pappardelle with wild boar, peposo) and an average price of €35. The main reservation concerns the wine list, which is not specified.

Choose Il Canto Del Gallo if…

  • you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (8,8), level with or ahead on rapport qualité/prix et typicité locale
  • you prioritise typicité locale (8,8 vs 6,4) : Tortelli maremmani, pappardelle with wild boar, pici, peposo maremmano, braciola al Morellino: menu mostly regional, with named local products.
  • you trust travellers: 9,6/10 from 379 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head

Choose Il Turchese if…

  • your budget matters: from €34 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,3). Italian fish menu with pecorino, porcini and vin santo; Maremma anchoring not specified, international desserts.

Choose Poco Loco if…

  • in Porto Santo Stefano, this table mixes fish and meat, with clam pasta, a grigliata mista and named Tuscan wines at moderate prices

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,4). A few named Tuscan wines (Vermentino, Ansonica della Maremma, Pitigliano), but a mostly generic, largely Italian menu, with no identified regional dish from the Maremma.
