Agriturismo Montagna Verde

We had a great time sitting outside on the terrace, with good toscane wine ‘Pian Piano’ and with some Amazing beef, Tagliata with truffle, served on hot plate in sissling beef style!

The environment it's really beautiful inside and outside the restaurant, but there are some problems. Firstable there isn't a menu, so you can't know the price of the plates and secondly the portion are very very small (unusual for an agriturism !! . Finally it's a little bit expensive, 130 euro in five persons. Inspite everything the food is good and the waitress are kindly. It could be better

Following a great afternoon at the Chestnut Festival in Licciana Nardi, 5 brave souls ventured up the mountain for a 7:30 reservation at Ristorante La Torre Agriturismo Montagna Verde. Wow, what a drive, not for the faint of heart, especially in the dark. There is signage and once you arrive you will be amazed. We were welcomed by name and escorted to our tables. Beer wine quickly appeared and the feast began shortly thereafter. A variety of appetizers were presented that appealed to all 5 of us. Meats, cheeses, vegetables and scabei (regional bread pocket). Apparently this does not even qualify as a course as primo course was three types of local handmade ravioli that were delicious. Secondo course (meat) was steak arugula, pork pears or traditional chicken all wonderful. Dessert course was a choice of several options, we enjoyed Creme Brûlée, Panna Cotta, gelato with caramel sauce. All for 30 euros per person. Absolutely worth the adventuresome drive.

Restaurant offers food grown on local farm and give opportunity to taste Tuscany cuisine. Reservation of table in advance is recommended.

This restaurant is set in a beautiful old converted abbey with scenic mountain views. It is very isolated. They operate a 0km menu so food is local and seasonal and so there is no fixed paper menu as such. The dishes change each night and staff tell you the options. There is the possibility of a la Carte or a tasting menu. It is amazing value a variety of appetisers, pasta each, meat each with sides, dessert each and wine, water and coffee included, all for €30pp. The a la carte is also reasonably priced. The only downfall is no one really tells you this! There is a card at the door which explains it... which we didn’t see at our first visit. Staff were kind but with broken English and so on the first night we really didn’t have a clue what was happening, what we were getting or what anything cost! This aside we had a delicious meal and came back for a second night! We were not disappointed, and then we did pay our balance we were very pleasantly surprised! There are unusual local dishes and beautiful, subtle flavours, with good portion sizes. My advice is come hungry and be careful not to fill up on breads there is more coming!!
