The verdict

La Giuncola e il Granaiolo takes the lead

La Giuncola e il Granaiolo scores 8,5/10, ahead of Il Vecchio Mulino (7,1). In Grosseto, a Maremma menu: tortello di ghigo, pappardelle al cinghiale, peposo dell'Impruneta and bistecca alla fiorentina, around €30 per person. The wine list and service conditions are not specified.

Choose Il Vecchio Mulino if…

  • your budget matters: from €25 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (7,1). Five Montalcino DOC pizzas and Chianina IGP della Val di Chiana anchor the menu, but the whole remains dominated by classic pizzas.
