The verdict

Bistrot 19 takes the lead

Bistrot 19 scores 8,5/10, ahead of Il Passaggio by Capanna (8,2). In Grosseto, you'll find Tuscan cuisine with named products (chianina, Morellino) and a homemade giardiniera. Drawback: the menu also mixes generic dishes and a New York Cheesecake, which dilutes the regional typicity.

  • you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (8,5), level with or ahead on rapport qualité/prix
  • you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (7,6 vs 7,3) : For €35 on average, you get main courses at €16, such as the Morellino fillet and a homemade giardiniera: the value is consistent.
