The verdict
Ristorante Antica Dogana takes the lead
Ristorante Antica Dogana scores 8,1/10, ahead of Pozzarello (6,5). In Grosseto, on the outskirts, Antica Dogana focuses on Italian seafood cuisine (gamberoni dell'Argentario, pici fatti a mano) and a private car park. The menu does mix in some international touches (wagyu, tzatziki).
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.
