The view is great, but unfortunately, the food was not. The steak tartar appetizer was overwhelmed by the amount of pickles. The pulpo was good but nothing special. The two pastas we ordered were pretty bad. I ordered the pici with wild boar ragu. The sauce was fine, but the noodles were sweet (which was very odd), and it was served lukewarm. The other pasta dish was inedible, too, as the pasta was overcooked. The server forgot to bring our order of parmigiana di melanzane, but we didn't say anything. We just cut our losses, paid our bill, and left.
La VolpeneraDear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. While we’re pleased you enjoyed the view, we are truly sorry and disappointed to learn that your culinary experience did not meet expectations. We regret that the balance of flavors in the steak tartare and the temperature and texture of the pasta dishes were not to your liking. These details matter deeply to us, and we take your feedback seriously. Please rest assured we will share your comments with our kitchen team to understand what may have gone wrong and ensure it does not happen again. We also extend our sincere apologies for the missed order of the parmigiana di melanzane — such an oversight does not reflect the attentive service we strive to offer each guest. Your experience is far from the standard we aim to provide, and we genuinely hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to better reflect the quality and care that define our hospitality. Warm regards, Guest Relations Manager

Worst service we ever experienced. They ignored our table. At one point, there were 4 waiters serving one table while we had to flag them down for everything! We would have left, but it was late and we were hungry. Food was just OK. We had a better meal at a small bistro in town. We had the distinct feeling they did not like Americans. Stay away!
La VolpeneraDear Mr Steve Montes, we are deeply sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that our staff follows a specific policy: we wait until all guests at the table have finished their meal before clearing the plates. We regret if this gave the impression that you were being neglected; our goal is always to provide attentive service that respects each guest’s pace. Regarding our staff, we want to emphasize that we strive to treat all of our guests with the same care and dedication, regardless of nationality. The fact that multiple waiters were attending another table at that moment might have been due to particular needs, but we apologize if this affected your experience negatively. We hope to have the chance to change your mind in the future. Warm regards, Guest Relation Manager

We ate here 3 times during our week in the area . Enjoyed the food and the setting. I certainly would recommend it to anyone . Plenty of space for little ones to run around if you are a family with children as well

Excellent restaurant in a beautiful setting. About 15 minutes from our accommodation rental and we ended up eating here twice for dinner. Service was excellent. The soft egg appetizer was very tasty. We shared an eggplant pasta which was great. The cod and stew were excellent. We noticed many servings of octopus go by, and it looked good but we were not that adventurous. The chocolate cake was decadent

The ambience was over the top and the food was good. The service was just average.

First time in my life that I am leaving a bad review. We had to move our seats after sitting because there were 7-8 big flies rooming on the window where we sat. Food was okay. We had tasting menu. Wild boar ragu pasta- not sure what to say. My husband’s dish had so much liquid after he finished while mine didn’t. Beef stew had too much peppercorns but maybe it’s just not my style. The worst part was service. Our server (tall with glasses, didn’t knew the name because he never introduced himself with his name) - never checked on us ONCE. Nobody asked us how was our dish/how was our dinner. My wine glass was empty after my pasta dish- nobody came to see if I wanted the second glass. Overall the place was nice with great view. But I was disappointed and will never come back.

A hidden gem, one of the best meals I have had and the scenery of the Tuscan landscape is just breathtaking well worth visiting. The food is authentic and even the most simplest dishes came out even better than expected and the desserts just phenomenal. Great romantic vibes

Great place, good food. Only thing is “it went to fast”, meaning If I go out for dinner I want to relax and take My time. It was done, 3 course dinner, in 75 mn. Out fastest dinner yet in Italy
