La Bandita Townhouse Caffe

Stylish restaurant in the center of Pienza

Reviewed By Hed1959

This is a professional, elegant, modern-Tuscan restaurant, but I am not sure it justifies the price. We had here our most expensive meal in a 12-day trip in central Tuscany. Now, it was indeed a very good meal: delicious antipasti (zucchini carpaccio, burrata, mixed salad), terrific lamb chops, very good pasta amatriciana and gnocchi, two yummy desserts and a good bottle of white wine. But at more than 50 Euros per person (excluding tip), you can probably do better here. Also, there was an irritating incident with the wine. At the beginning of the evening, I asked for - and was promptly given - a taste of two white wines, both offered at 20 Euros a bottle. I chose one of them, and we were served a bottle of what was presumably the wine I chose. The bill included a bottle of another white wine altogether, at 30 Euros. I commented on this and was told by the waiter: but this is the wine you just drank! I insisted it was not the wine I chose, and (to their credit) they changed the bill accordingly with no further argument. But it did leave a somewhat bitter taste. Still, a very good dinner.

Poderuccio

We really enjoyed the food and wine on our first night in Pienza. Will we be able to better it? I doubt it. We had cheese on toast to start but so nice with truffle or walnuts with it. Then followed by the pica ragu or boar pasta. All great

The tavern is located in proximity of the entrance door of Monticchiello, a nice medieval village near Pienza.With its few places (it is better to reserve), it proposes an elegant room, furnished with taste in typical tuscan style, it is comfortable and f

Ordinary food. So-so service. Fantastic sunset view if one is lucky enough to have one of the three terrace edge tables. There is a small park right in front of the terrace where one can enjoy the view without dining at the restaurant.FOOD: 3.0. Ordinary. One diner described the taste as pre-made and then warmed up. Later when our agriturismo host heard that we dined here, he frowned and said "micro-waved" food.- Risotto orzo: 2.5- Gnocchetti di patate: 3.0- Guancia di manzo: 3.0SERVICE: 3.0. One server was very considerate and worked hard to provide a good experience. When we entered the restaurant he had us wait while he cleared an edge terrace table that had just been vacated. The other two servers were indifferent. That balances out to 3 stars.AMBIANCE:- for those without an edge terrace table: 3.0- for those lucky few who have an edge terrace table: 4.5

Awesome view from this small, delicious wine bar/restaurant at the entry to Monticchiello town. It was a very cold spring day and we were tired from our travels so the Ribollita soup and beef stew were warm and just what we needed. La Guardiola has a great wine selection, you can even purchase bottles and take out, which we did. Great spot to enjoy a lovely light meal and the gelato is to die for.

Ristorante Daria

A new restaurant in this unspoiled mediaeval hill town. It is run by Deborah, the charming daughter of Daria, owner of Monticchiello's famed La Porta. I hosted a wedding eve dinner there on July 7th - the first big party Deborah had catered. The food, win

Reviewed By Y9753TWlisab

Everything started great. We were served a glass of wine and a basket of bread immediately upon seating. After that, Daria came and took our ordered. The food was delicious (with the exception of dessert and espresso). After we were provided our entrees the service went completely downhill. We had to chase down a server for more wine, to clear our plates (after sitting there over 30 minutes), to see the dessert menu, etc. We noticed the larger groups getting treated very well yet the couples not that great. This really put a damper on the experience.Overall not sure I'd recommend. The food was great but the poor service isn't worth it.

Rosso Vivo Pizzeria Verace

Reviewed By blauhund

This is the pizza you write home about. Perfect in every way. Makes even the best Napoli style pizza back home in Toronto disappointing. We had the margherita and the cappriciosa (with some lovely anchovies). Amazing. The place has no table service and seems to be a combination grocery and pizzeria. You order at the check out counter on the way in and give them your name. When the pizzas are ready they call your name...as pronounced in the local dialect, so listen carefully!!! Also just grab drinks from the cooler on the left...when you're done, pay at the check out counter. It was slightly confusing but the effort was completely worth it.
