When: 2010

Highly recommended to us and we were happy to discover the reputation is well-deserved.

Lovely stone-walled and wood-beamed rooms, this was a more “ambitious” dining experience and presentation, with drool-worthy multi-course meals and a fantastic à la carte menu. The wine list was broad and deep and the service was terrific. A very fine dining experience – chestnut gnocchi; crepes with sausage, leek, parmesan, and saffron; pigeon in white wine and anchovy sauce; pappardelle with venison; etc., along with a very nice 2007 Castellare Chianti Classico Riserva - and we would definitely return.
