This is the restaurant with one of the most beautiful views of Siena. The restaurant is located outside the city center, in a hotel located on a dirt road, but it is worth it, we were there on Sunday. We made a reservation in advance and it was the day of the pizza rodizio. The service was very good and the pizzas even better. The restaurant is located far from the city center, on a dirt road, but it is worth a visit.

One of the most magical placed I’ve been in Italy. Starting from the interior & architecture, the scenery, the animals, the nature surrounding the tower and most importantly the people. Truly warm and welcoming. We’ve done the historical tour & wine tasting which was very insightful and TASTY. I also bought a few of their homemade wines.

Review of La Torre alle Tolfe Restaurant I had the pleasure of dining at La Torre alle Tolfe restaurant and I must say that it was an extraordinary experience. The location is enchanting: immersed in the tranquility of the hills, just a few minutes from Siena, it offers a suggestive panorama that makes the meal even more enjoyable. The cuisine is excellent, with dishes made with high-quality local products. Each dish was meticulous in detail and rich in flavour, reflecting the Tuscan tradition with a touch of authenticity that can be felt in every bite. The hospitality was impeccable. The staff is friendly, welcoming and always attentive to every need, creating a relaxing and familiar atmosphere. If you are looking for a place to savour authentic Tuscan cuisine in a peaceful and charming atmosphere, La Torre alle Tolfe is certainly the perfect choice. I can't wait to come back!

Sharing her super dynamic passion in French and with a big smile. Finally a very good dinner in a very calm and pleasant atmosphere.

I was at the winery for a four day intensive wine course, in October. The staff was so warm and welcoming. We ordered lunch every day which was always a tasty selection of simple local Tuscan dishes. They can even accommodate Gluten Free on request. The grounds are well maintained and beautiful this time of year. This is a working winery and I am sure you will love the Chianti wines as much as we did. The wine maker is a master at his craft and we enjoyed talking with him. I did not spend the night since I live about 40 minutes away. But I have to admit I missed starting my morning there today since the wine course is over. This is a hidden gem right outside of Siena. The views are nothing short of amazing.
