The verdict

La Terra di Nello takes the lead

La Terra di Nello scores 8,9/10, ahead of Bistrot 19 (8,5) et Cristall (7,8). Rural osteria in Castiglione della Pescaia: entirely regional Tuscan menu (pici with lardo, pappardelle with chianina ragù, bistecca alla fiorentina), about €40 per person. Country and rustic atmosphere, claimed without gastronomic pretension.

Choose Bistrot 19 if…

  • In Grosseto, you'll find Tuscan cuisine featuring named local products (chianina, Morellino) and a homemade giardiniera.
