The verdict

L'Uva e Il Malto and Le Chiuse neck and neck

8,3 versus 8,3: 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…

  • your budget matters: from €20 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,9). 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.

Choose L'Uva e Il Malto if…

  • Grosseto restaurant awarded two gamberi, with pici alla bottarga di Orbetello, filetto di Chianina and a focus on fish, for an average price of 40 €

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (7,3). Pici, bottarga di Orbetello, lardo di Colonnata and Chianina anchor the menu in Tuscany; foie gras and pane carasau open it to other influences.

Choose Le Chiuse if…

  • you prioritise typicité locale (8,7 vs 7,3) : Very Maremma menu: acquacotta, zuppa maremmana, tortelli maremmani, cinghiale alla cacciatora, Morellino di Scansano DOCG wines and named pecorino.
  • you trust travellers: 9,7/10 from 98 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
