Trattoria Il Cassero

Food is traditional to val d'Orcia, a stunning region in Tuscany. Also, food is just ex-cellent! Must go and eat here. Only thing is that it's run by a couple who couldn't be more different in the impression that they left on me. The man talks a lot and appears to be a bit controlling. The woman is quiet, almost depressed looking, but she's very kind. Don't let this put you off. Ultimately, they'll both be friendly. The food is worth it. The village is absolutely beautiful.

This was the most lovely find of our whole trip to Tuscany. We kept it simple given we were about to go on a hike but the pomodoro pasta we had was just sublime (and super fresh). We had the just made cake for dessert and a lovely wine and cafe as well. The man who runs this place is super nice and welcoming and did his best to teach us a bit more Italian (my husband is decent at it and still learning) and teach us the best ways to bake a cake! Wish we could have come here every day next time! PS. The restaurant is right in the middle of the historic part of town.

Najlepiej makaron znajdował się w języku włoskim. Właściciel nie mówi po angielsku, ale nie może być mylony. Nie czułem więcej włosów niż w tej restauracji.

Penso che il proprietario di questo ristorante sia l'unica persona al mondo che, con la sua franchezza, potrebbe risolvere la crisi tra Russia e Ucraina.

This family owned restaurant in the quiet little village of Castiglione d’Orcia is the location of culinary excellence. The friendly chef (a master of food preparation) produces food like an artist. The combination of flavors, smells, textures and visual presentation tantalize the senses from first bite to last. If you are like myself a spoiled American use to large quantities of average food put that behind you when you are here. Quantity is adequate and quality is not to be exceeded. This was our second meal here and we look forward to more before we head home. The chef loves children and his sole desire appears to be your satisfaction. He doesn’t speak much English but we managed very well. This is that special place we all look for but so rarely find.
