Not for us are the production-line restaurants with huge menus, disinterested waiters and anonymous chefs. It’s sometimes hard to find what we prefer, but somehow, we often manage to discover a small family-run establishment with home-cooked food. We instinctively knew that ‘Osteria da Trombicche’ was our kind of place and we were not disappointed. In fact, the selection of home-cooked meals was impressive and our food was delightful. Such a simple thing as Bruschete dressed with oil & salt was delicious, as was our other antipasti of Crostone with pancetta & pecorino. The little pork Polpetti with sage were a delight as was the Salsicce cooked with onions in Chianti wine. We were offered the traditional Tuscan dessert of Vin Xanto served with Cantuccini, the crunchy almond biscotti that you use to soak up the wine. The whole lot, with wine and water, cost just €35 for two, and we loved the dessert so much that we went to a shop along the street and bought more wine & biscuits to take home with us. This little treasure of a ‘bistro’ is already popular, so don’t overcrowd them – I would hate it to change!

    Wonderful, inventive food. Don’t come here if you want a quick bite but if you are not in a hurry and want to savour excellent, interesting and superb value Tuscan food, then do come here. They also store their red wine at the correct temperature. Angela Hartnett has recommended this place Enough said.

    4/5Excellent

    Second visit, the first one was really excellent, all the food was great, even if the restaurant was really busy (awesome monkfish pasta). The second time around wasn't as great, overcooked tuna with a werid dish composition, maybe too much on the bitter side, some great flavors in a pork belly dish, but a very watery purée and un-crispy skin seems like a missed opportunity to make it a great dish. Would still recommend but some dishes need more care

    The atmosphere was lovely. It was really cool to see the chefs working to make our delicious meals. The food was excellent, the ragú was amazing. Our server recommended a local red wine that went perfectly with our meal. I had the steak and it was cooked beautifully.

    A lovely restaurant behind the busy streets of Siena. The menu was so interesting and fresh and tasted delicious. A young team using fresh Italian ingredients in a way that is off the usual beaten track. This will be a regular haunt for us for sure. Grazie

    Love this little gem in the heart of Siena's historical center. It's a casual cozy atmosphere with a gourmet take on traditional tuscan dishes. Absolutely love it and can't wait to go back!
