The verdict

L'Uva e Il Malto and Ristoro da Poldo neck and neck

Choose Montecristo if…

  • you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (8,2 vs 7,6) : Menu from €9 to €23 with named seafood (tuna tartare €15.50, frittura mista €18) and an average price of €25: good value for homemade dishes.
  • your budget matters: from €25 / pers., the lowest price in the head-to-head

Why these ratings?

L'Uva e Il MaltoPici, bottarga di Orbetello, lardo di Colonnata and Chianina anchor the menu in Tuscany; foie gras and pane carasau open it to other influences.

MontecristoNamed Tuscan dishes (finocchiona and pecorino toscano, cinta senese, pappa al pomodoro), but the menu is still dominated by fairly generic seafood cuisine.

Ristoro da PoldoTortelli maremmani, trippa alla fiorentina and pici anchor the menu in Tuscany; foie gras with mandarin and carbonara di mare open toward other registers.
