The verdict
Cristall takes the lead
Cristall scores 7,8/10, ahead of Il Vecchio Mulino (7,1). Pizze from €6, named seafood dishes (Sorpresa del mare, Impepata di cozze) and fresh pasta for an average price of €20 per person, with terrace seating possible. Caveat: the menu remains largely generic Italian, with few truly Maremma dishes.
