    We were last here in 2018 and although it had changed a little, it was still fabulous. Delicious food and wine and really helpful staff. A memorable evening

    Food preparation was perfect. Service was efficient and friendly. You get the sense that everyone takes great pride in the food they serve. Best meal so far in Tuscany this trip.

    We waited 15 min to get a menu while others that came in after us were served first. Appetizer burrata and scallops were good, ravioli really not-meat wasn’t tasty enough and sauce was tasteless. Wish I could comment on dolce’s but after waiting 20 min to be asked, I picked up and left. For THIS caliber of resto, this is a NO

    Wonderful afternoon lunch. Charming spot with wonderful waitstaff and splendid food. The soufflé was a perfect taste for antipasta dish to share. I absolutely loved the tagliatelle with truffles. Creatively displayed and just the perfect amount of truffle…not overpowering. Nice portion for one person. Wine was enjoyable and a delightful stop on our busy touring day. Quiet, quaint stop, but so glad we made the stop.

    We ate here twice, dinner and a subsequent lunch. The food ought to be the highlight of any meal, the company excepted perhaps, and the food was superb. The pici was simple but delectable, the liver patè a delightful surprise, and the wines a benediction. The ambiance and service were molto bene.

    The place is beautiful and comfortable, well located in the heart of the city. Food is good. although a little expensive. The service was fair (a few employees were super polite and friendly but others not even close to that.

    What a wonderful surprise! Daria is a little treasure in the tiny town! Everything we had was wonderful! Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time because they were booked when we were there on a Monday evening in April. Loved it!

    Goodness. This is a marvelous picture for dining and the tradition set forth by previous owner Daria still shines through in the excellent food and service. We SO miss her and this was a wonderful visit for us to say goodbye and hello. We can’t wait to return!

    We had an exceptional meal, wow! Perfect service, knowledgeable and kind staff. The food was very classic, seasonal & typical of the area but with modern touches. Ribollita was the best I’ve ever had, and I try it everywhere. If I lived locally I’d dine here once a week if not more!

    If we could give Daria's an 11/10 we would...we have been dining here for years and every time we visit it is consistently fantastic food (specials every day plus great variety on the main menu...the vegetable flan with pecorino cream is a simple, light, but outstanding starter), there are gluten free, dairy free options to satisfy any palate including mine and the front of house team is second to none. Welcoming, professional, always a pleasure to see them again. And then there is the wine list...extensive, great variety across all price points...and the atmosphere is just, well, lovely!

    We’ve eaten dinner at Daria’s twice over the past few weeks and both meals have been delicious. The restaurant is charming, the wait staff are friendly and the food is excellent. We highly recommend it.

    My husband and I met a couple at the Agriturismo La Crociona that recommended Ristorante Daria. I was able to make a reservation and we were so glad to get in. It’s a very popular restaurant and there’s a reason! The staff is very friendly, the location is beautiful….but the food is WOW! This was definitely the best meal we have had in our 13 day visit to many places in Italy and we have had some very nice meals. I had the ravioli w/black truffles and my husband had the Crunchy suckling pig dish. Both of us were tempted to lick our dishes clean…instead we used the bread provided as we thought that licking the dish would not be appropriate as this is a very nice restaurant. My husband loves to try different dishes but said if we were to go back again he would order the exact same meal. The wine, dessert (Panna Cotta) and espresso were excellent as well. We would have paid much more for a meal like this in the US. Don’t miss this place, it’s a must eat!!

    We have eaten here and in Daria’s previous restaurant many times over the past 18 years. This was our first time eating here since she passed and we were are delighted that the staff are still providing the excellent quality food and service that made eating with Daria so special. We look forward to our next visit.

    Each plate is a piece of art. Flavours are pure and simple. It's a pleasure eating here, a great menu, delicious wines and very friendly multilingual service. It has a really nice ambience and we will return.

    We had such a wonderful experience here. Found in the heart of tiny Montelecchio at the top of a steep hill, the walk up provides extraordinary views of the countryside. Though it was a 30-minute drive from the town where we were staying, we were pointed there by so many sources that we knew it would be worth the trouble. My starter was the asparagus souffle, blanketed in a perocino cream, and my main course was a play on risotto, made not with arborio but with farro, and it was lovely. My husband's lamb chops were perfection. We loved the little touches, like sparkling wine served upon seating, and the server's willingness to point us to just the right local wine. The space, with its barrel-vaulted brick walls and ceilings exude the medieval feel of this village. Tables are set close to one another, which was fine -- even though the group of six at the next table was a little on the loud side. We would happily return here when the occasion arises.

    I can see why this is a Michelin star restaurant. The salad, truffle ravioli, wine, pana cotta and cherry liquor were outstanding as was the presentation and service. Highly recommend!

    This is the fourth time we’ve been there since it opened. We were friends with the namesake Daria who passed away. The food is excellent. This time the service was slow, even considering the relaxed dining ambience. The people are really nice, and the interior is lovely. We’ll go back.

    The first time we had been to ristorante Daria for 3 years so we were deeply shocked to learn that Daria had passed away in the meantime. However we were pleased that her legacy lives on through her team at the restaurant. We were well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

    Absolutely exquisite Tuscan food presented beautifully and served amiably by Maitre D Alessandro. The roasted piglet filet with celery mousse and roasted vegetables was divine and melted in your moith.

    Definitely worth the trip to Montichiello, food was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. My only concern was the rather long wait between the antipasti and our main course. It was rather long but with that being said we definitely enjoyed our meal and would still highly recommend.

    Daria was highly recommended by the staff at our Agriturisimo saying it Michelin rated . We were there for lunch. My husband’s beefsteak was tough and not medium as requested and did not finish it. The staff offered to cook it more. They did give us a bottle of wine as we left. The service was efficient but not outstanding as expected in a highly rated restaurant.
