Il Celliere A Castagnoli

This was my favourite restaurant on a 5 day tour (mostly spent eating) in Tuscany. We came here as a group of 10 celebrating a birthday, and had reserved in advance based on the reviews. We arrived and were shown to a large, square table that allowed all of us to see each other. The staff was immediately very friendly and welcoming, and brought out an amuse bouche and fresh bread. I find bread in Italy often leaves much to be desired, but the bread at Il Celliere was incredible. I started with a pasta served with a tomato sauce and pecorino cream, which was delicious, followed by the vegetarian eggplant dish which was also great. One person in our party had a porcini dish (they have a separate porcini menu which is more expensive than their other dishes) which she was really happy with. We shared many bottles of wine, including one beautiful Tuscan red served to us in huge glasses as a celebratory bottle for my dad's birthday. From start to finish, this meal was fabulous. It's run by a family (mom in the kitchen, kids in the front of the house), and when we told the staff how much we loved the food they brought mom out so we could thank her in person. This was a really special evening and I would recommend this restaurant to anyone traveling in the area.

Very nice place, great food. kind, courteous and professional staff. I'll come back!

5 stars all around. Service was first class, very attentive well trained wait staff. High end presentation and very sizable portions. Porcini mushroom pappardelle was dreamy and the fiorentina steak was perfection. Bread service was so good, so make sure to come hungry! This place delivered both on experience and food quality. Very memorable, would definitely come back.

High quality food, beautiful presentations of dishes, ultra friendly staff prepared and available. Congratulations.

Beautiful restaurant located inside a village immersed in the lands of the classical black gallant, excellent food and courtesy in the service make this place a place where to spend a wonderful evening with excellent cuisine, the price is right for the place courtesy and food.
