Il Canto Del Gallo takes the lead
Il Canto Del Gallo scores 8,8/10, ahead of L'Uva e Il Malto (8,3) et Molo 26 (7,6). The menu lines up named Maremman dishes (tortelli, pappardelle with wild boar, peposo) and an average price of €35. The main reservation concerns the wine list, which is not specified.
Choose Il Canto Del Gallo if…
- you want the safest value in the duel: best overall score (8,8), level with or ahead on rapport qualité/prix et typicité locale
- you prioritise typicité locale (8,8 vs 7,3) : Tortelli maremmani, pappardelle with wild boar, pici, peposo maremmano, braciola al Morellino: menu mostly regional, with named local products.
- your budget matters: from €35 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head
- you trust travellers: 9,6/10 from 379 reviews, the best rating in the head-to-head
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 Molo 26 if…
- Molo 26 focuses on local fish and carefully prepared Mediterranean cuisine in Porto Santo Stefano, with products such as chianina and Gillardeau oysters
Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,9). Locally caught fish, chianina and cantucci e vinsanto named. The menu is creative Mediterranean, with few classic Maremma dishes.
