10/10Pestello is locate in the country N. of Castellina in Chianti. Beautiful traditional setting in a wooded area along the roadside. Mostly locals dining with some travellers. Seemed to have a focus on beef and game dishes. We had steak and veal. both were cooked to perfection. The host is extremely personable and interacted with all of the tables. A fun, happy place to be. Great wine list as all restaurants in this area have. We would go again.

9.5/10The place was really beautiful and the food delicious!! There was only one waiter for the whole place so it took a bit longer to eat but that is also the Italian way. I highly recommend you visit this restaurant while in Poggibonsi!!

10/10Great experience. Very welcoming staff. Had a few good laughs with the waiter somewhere between Italian and English. Very dog-friendly. Great food, excellent meat cooked to perfection. Torta Della Nonna still warm from the oven.

9.5/10We have been coming back to Pestello every year for over 10 years. Its traditional Tuscan fare served with humor, a smile and great service. The food is high quality and local. The Florentine Bistecca is the best. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

10/10I have been returning to Pestello for many years and it never disappoints! The food is exceptional and the service friendly and fast. We even joked with our waiter about the fact that my husband arrived in crutches and forgot them when he left, so good was the dinner he felt instantly better!

10/10Cozy and picturesque restaurant in the middle of the mountains of beautiful Castellina in Chianti, land of vineyards. Delicious food with its Tuscan touch and its specialty in meats

8.5/10The Fiorentina Steak for which we came was flawless and tasted great! However, the side dishes, fried potatoes and vegetables, were undercooked and not on par with meat. Deserts were good and our waiter was very friendly and humorous. Overall pretty good.

9.5/10This is around our fifth visit to Pestello over the last three year of visits to the area and it is one our favorites. Pietro is a master of his profession and took very good care of us!

10/10We have been in Tuscany many times and Ristorante Pestello has been our favorite restaurant, In fact they have been the reason we visit Tuscany in 2018 too!! Everything we had, antipasti Pestello, Truffle ravioli, wild bear picci and bistecca, all of them were exceptional. They have a very good wine list. Fireplace room has the best ambiance in frosty winter days.
