Trattoria del Contadino

What a find! It&#39;s worth the drive even if you&#39;re coming from a distance.The food was amazing and not the usual fare we&#39;ve seen everywhere else in northern Italy. The upstairs enclosed balcony was also a quiet, romantic setting facing a courtyard from 1120 AD that the owner and her brother played in when growing up in what was their grandfather&#39;s home. The service was great, too.We can highly recommend Chiostro Cennini.

We are frequent guests at Le Tartare yesterday we celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary there  enjoying a gift card from our son and daughter-in-law for lunch. We  were presented with a long stemmed, red rose in  a beautiful arrangement and crisp cold white wine when we arrived. The quality of the food is consistently excellent, and is only surpassed by the warmth of the staff and Maurizio! We have come to feel like family. We will return again again.

My son and I first found La Patriarca one sunny afternoon in 2007, and it quickly became a family favorite. The location (3 minutes from the exit of the autostrada and across the road from the cinema) was super convenient, the staff always kind and generous, and the traditional southern Tuscan food, simply delicious. For 9 years, we were happy, regular diners there. I am so so happy to write that La Patriarca hasn&#39;t changed a bit! Walked in to find the wood-fired grill ablaze, the waitress remembered my face (even though I&#39;m 7 years older!) and the steak and roasted potatoes still as yummy and satisfying as I last remembered. It isn&#39;t fancy (that&#39;s Il Salotto upstairs) but it is exactly what typical cooking of the Val di Chiana should taste like.  Absolutely recommended !!!
