    Ambience and service was great but I was underwhelmed with the food. Nothing too memorable. I got the guinea fowl which had good flavor but not very tender. My friend ordered the suckling roast pig. Nice and crunchy but again nothing too special with the flavor.

    The food, service and ambiance was everything we had hoped for. The attentive staff took time to explain the menu and was accommodating in every way. Hands down, this was one of our favorite meals we had during our 5 week stay in Tuscany.

    This was our second visit to Daria, and it was just as memorable as our first. Service was impeccable without being stuffy. Food was beyond delicious!

    This place is a gem in the area: wonderful Tuscan food, very friendly service and great wines in a cosy atmosphere in the middle of the beautiful quiet village of Monticchiello. If you are in the area of Pienza you should definitely go to Ristorante Daria.

    The evening at Daria was one of the best in Italy. The hospitality and service were excellent. We enjoyed pici all’aglione and then the best beef cheeks I have had. The wine list is so extensive. We enjoyed a recommended. Vino Nobile which is not only wonderful, but a great value. The ambience of this restaurant is welcoming, friendly, and comfortable. Alessandro is a perfect host. Whilethe small, lovely town of montechiello is a little off from the nearby cities of Pienza and Montepulciano, a visit here is well worth it. There are many restaurants, but, for me, Daria is clearly one of the most outstanding in Tuscany . I have been to this area of Tuscany more than 20 times.

    The village and location was tucked into the Tuscany hillside and was off the beaten path. Arrived by a dirt road. A fun drive.

    Outstanding restaurant in a charming village! I’m gluten free and there were many tantalizing choices on the menu including a fabulous gluten free pasta. Everything about Daria’s is exceptional.

    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!

    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.
