Tasty food (spinach with butter and Parmesan, buffalo mozzarella pizzas a highlight). Not quickest service but worth the wait. Came here twice in a short stay...

The pizzas are about 12" and are €5 to £8 each. We each had a pizza and that worked for dinner. We could have had two salads and one pizza and that would have worked. They do serve other meals also but pizza is a big part of their offerings. One caveat when ordering pepperoni on your pizza it means bell peppers in Italy. Two sausage pizzas, a bottle of Banfi white, a glass of house red and cover was €34'perfect!

We visited here looking for a slightly more relaxed night than the rest of our minimoon which was spent down the road at castello di Velona. This place really hit the spot.

It's great value, hearty food with speedy service. We ordered pizzas and loved it - so much so we came back the following night.

It's not really fancy but it just hits the spot. Book ahead - even just an hour before if you can because it can get pretty busy.

Rated by our family (two adults and two children - 12 and 14) as the best place for pizza in Montalcino. Large choice, generous servings, reasonable prices, good service.

We've eaten in this restaurant many times over the years we've visited Montalcino and always found it to be a good rstaurant. However during our recent visit we felt that the quality of the service and food had slipped. We visited twice and on both occasions there had been an error in the order and we ended up not eating at the same time. I noticed similar errors happened on neighbouring tables (clearing using new technology rather than paper is not foolproof!) Although the pizzas were as good as usual the other dishes were not at good as on previous visits (papardelle alla cinghialle was poor and lacked taste, the ceci tasted like tinned and warmed up with a bit of oil and rosemary).
