Good, but very simple food. I would go for meat here, pasta is not the best.

A wonerful recommendation by the hotel where we are staying. Just great service and even better food - so delicious !! The head waiter was so friendly and the young lady serving was really helpful as she spoke excellent English (our italian is rudimentary). The food and setting were just great! We will be back!

I had a tasty Fiorentina steak, prepared exactly as it should have been. My wife ordered gnocchi con tartuffo and it was delicious. The waiter gave us a generous italian experience and we enjoyed the meals accompanied with some vino rosso da casa

We ended up here by chance. But we really liked it. We were greeted and welcomed warmly when parking. The setting was pleasant, the restaurant very lively. We had a very nice meal there. The appetisers were fresh and tasty, excellent! We ate several meat dishes and they were all excellent too. The local wine presented by the patron was also very tasty. The service was excellent: very attentive and friendly. The constantly noisy patron is an attraction in itself. In short, a recommended location with honest and delicious dishes and fair prices.

We sat down just after a table of 15 was seated. We expected a long delay for our meal, but it arrived in a timely manner. The steak was cooked to perfection as was the rest of the meal. The meal prices were very reasonable priced. The wine selection was good, though priced slightly higher than other places. Don't let that stop you from dining here. Our meal was one of the best we had while visiting the area.

Pestello 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.

The 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!!

Great 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.

We 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.

I 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!

Cozy 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

Situated next to road in the middle of Chianti this place offers very good Food. We were sitting on the covered terrace. The Starters, the pasta and finally the Fiorentina were really good. Had 2 very nice recommended bottle of red wine. Also the Service was very good and we straight had chemistry with the waiter. For sure we will go back. You should just try it! See you Eric

Our favorite for more than 20 years. Perfect!!!!

We 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.
