The verdict

Bistrot 19 takes the lead

Bistrot 19 scores 8,5/10, ahead of Ristoro da Poldo (8,2) et Il Vecchio Mulino (7,1). 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.
