Good restaurant with nice outside tables just about a center of Siena. Quality of food, list of drinks and service are quite well and typically Tuscan.

Located near the Duomo, the Siena Cathedral, this modern looking restaurant has a dining area with a/c and an outside terrace facing a busy street with pedestrian traffic. We started with stuffed eggplant rolls with buratta, a creamier version of a mozzarella cheese, in a...zucchini sauce. My husband chose a hand cut beef tartare with all the trimmings, while I ordered the “Trippa alla senese” with the traditional ragù of onion, celery, carrots. Both dishes were excellent. The service was professional but a bit slow. The prices were reasonable for an historical center.More

Ristorante Numero Unico is a small, cozy restaurant with just a handful tables in the front part (but more in the back part). We were welcomed enthusiastic, but the service degraded during the meal. Their pasta was outstanding, especially the open ravioli with burrata and...homemade tomatosauce. My secondo was disappointing. Pig is normally the must safe-proof, but my suckling pig was tough and I had a hard time chewing half of it. Couldn’t eat the last half. The dish was much more decorated (including flowers) than normally in Italy. Nothing wrong with that, just unusual – and maybe wrong prioritizing. My partners beef cheeks were fine. And so was the semifreddo. The Chianti Classico, Riserva le Baroncole 2015 was a powerful and excellent wine. Speed of serving was fine in the beginning, but it was strange, that 1) we were not offered any drink on arrival 2) any extra wine when we had finished our bottle of red wine and 3) it took a very long time before we were offered coffee and dessert. In fact, I had to tilt the empty wine bottle to get attention. Also when I was asked how the food was, and I replied ‘hard to eat’, there was no reaction. Price was general speaking ok for Siena.More

Beautiful, complex, and adventurous. We loved this place! The owner waited on us himself. We had a lot of fun here. Very interesting textures in every dish! This place stood out among every restaurant we tried on our 2 week honeymoon, and we ate out...for every meal!More

One long day: the 4 hour ferry ride from Corsica arriving an hour late into Livorno; just on dusk, then our driver collects us, checking into Siena’s Palazzo Ravizza; chill a while then seek a bite (after the plastic food on the ferry). A quick...walk into Siena centro reveals a funky new bistro fully crowded with diners, and on inquiring discover the back room awaiting more foodies. This restaurant has a pretty hip menu although it stays with the usual Tuscan proteins, and gives a mod spin. Such as chestnut profiteroles (Italians say puffs), filled with venison patties and tartare sauce. And the local sangiovese I chose was a Riserva 2013 Rocca di Castagnoli from Fattoria di Scannano Chianti; complicated labelling here too, to understand, good wine, drying out. The next plate was more mainstream: hearty food as it had started to rain, cooling the stone Siennese streets and getting in a mood for comfort bits. It was veal cheek ragout, deep in wine sauce, plus fagioli (white) beans and singed spinach. It demanded a richer wine too; what else but a Vino Nobile; and I discovered the house pour was made by Avignonesi in 2014. Double yum. It was a good meal and a grand new space; you should try it too; and avoid eating tourist food in the square. Make sure you don’t? CiaoMore

We had our best meal yet after 4 days in Italy. I would gladly go back even though we only have 3 days in Siena. The beef cheeks braised in Chianti were incredibly good. Overall experience was wonderful!

I go there each time I’m in Siena, never disappointed !! I love the little terrace but also the inside rooms when you are a bigger group. The food is delicious and there is a large choice of very good vines. The gnocchis are incredible...and the beef is excellent and always perfectly cooked. The service is absolutely adorable.More
