Just a five minute walk from Il Campo, this small restaurant serves up good Sienese home cooked cuisine. Expect most of the customers to be locals. Their ravioli was fantastic as was the mixed sausage plate I had. They serve an excellent local red wine by the glass or carafe. In typical Italian fashion, the wine is served in small... More

As others have noted, this is a genuine Osteria and has that ambience - we liked it. The service was excellent and the prices reasonable. I was disappointed in my meal, especially when I saw how much my three family members were enjoying their dinners - wish I had ordered the same as them.

Franco Fadda, our wine guide in Siena, reccomend us this Osteria, close by our hotel Palazzo Ravizza. We loved it so much! Marco, the Chef was so kind and he cooked for us the best pasta Carbonara ever, so good that we ate there twice!! Don't miss this restaurant once you are in Siena!

After reading so many good reviews we were excited to try this place. My antipasti of dry, not very flavorful pecorino was a bad start, although it was smartly seasoned with salt and pepper, and accompanied by the chef's nicely turned fig confit. Sautéed black cabbage over crostini was good. My 2d piatti of chicken with lemon sauce turned out... More

Each time we asked a local where to dine in Siena, they mentioned this place. So we knew we had to check it out! And we were not disappointed. The food was simple, rustic, and delicious!
