The verdict

Il Turchese and Cristall neck and neck

8,1 versus 7,8: the gap is too small to separate them on the overall rating. The choice comes down to the criteria that matter to you, below.

Choose Cristall if…

  • you prioritise typicité locale (6,9 vs 6,3) : The menu names salumi Toscani (€15), I sapori della maremma (€12) and Lo sfizio del buttero, but it is mostly made up of pizze, burgers and generic Italian dishes.
  • you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (7,7 vs 7,4) : Average price of €20 per person for a menu where pizze start at €6 and fish dishes climb to €25: the price remains consistent with what is served.
  • your budget matters: from €20 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Choose Il Turchese if…

  • you trust travellers: 9,5/10 from 266 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,3). Italian fish menu with pecorino, porcini and vin santo; Maremma anchoring not specified, international desserts.
