The verdict
Ricci Osteria Del Lago and Holiday neck and neck
7,7 versus 7,5: 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 Holiday if…
- you trust travellers: 9,3/10 from 94 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
Its weak point in this head-to-head: rapport qualité/prix (7,4). Average price €30 per person, pinse from €10 to €14, contorni at €7 and several mains at €25: the bill remains consistent with the menu, without being gentle.
Choose Ricci Osteria Del Lago if…
- you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (8,1 vs 7,4) : Affordably priced menu (primi 15-20 €, secondi 10-18 €) and 23 € per person in the budget range, for dishes named such as grilled lamb: good value for money.
- your budget matters: from €23 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Tosco's word
The Toscane Cachée Rating decides here on price and typicality: Ricci Osteria Del Lago shows €23 per person versus €30 at Holiday, with a much better value for money (8.1 versus 7.4) and more marked regional dishes such as grilled lamb, despite an almost identical overall rating (7.7 versus 7.5). If your budget is tight and you want a simple, authentic osteria, head to Ricci Osteria Del Lago. Holiday, with its panoramic lakeside terrace and its "From our lake" section (coregone), will appeal to those willing to pay more for the setting and a cuisine that is both broader and more local, even though its medium reliability and lower-rated service (7.0) call for caution.
