The verdict

L'Uva e Il Malto takes the lead

L'Uva e Il Malto scores 8,3/10, ahead of Cristall (7,8) et Il Vecchio Mulino (7,1). Restaurant in Grosseto distinguished by two gamberi, with pici with bottarga di Orbetello, filetto di Chianina and an emphasis on fish, for an average price of €40. The menu also includes foie gras and pane carasau, which slightly dilutes its Maremman roots.

Why these ratings?

CristallThe 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.

Il Vecchio MulinoFive Montalcino DOC pizzas and Chianina IGP della Val di Chiana anchor the menu, but the whole remains dominated by classic pizzas.

L'Uva e Il MaltoPici, bottarga di Orbetello, lardo di Colonnata and Chianina anchor the menu in Tuscany; foie gras and pane carasau open it to other influences.
