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 6,9) : Tortelli maremmani, pappardelle with wild boar, pici, peposo maremmano, braciola al Morellino: menu mostly regional, with named local products.
  • you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (7,6 vs 7,2) : Average price at €35, primi at €10-13, secondi at €10-20: the Tuscan menu remains consistent, with named products and no surcharge indicated.
  • your budget matters: from €35 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

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.
