Beautiful piazza with stunning views.

Lovely views of the surrounding countryside

Ok

Walk around and enjoy.

(Translated by Google) Since 1555 Pitigliano has hosted a Jewish community under the dominion of the Orsini. In fact, Paul IV with a bull imposed that within the territory of the state of the church, Jewish communities were allowed only in Rome, Ancona and Civitavecchia. Therefore many Jewish citizens settled in this border city which took the name of Little Jerusalem of the Maremma. The Jewish community also obtained confirmation of its rights with the transfer of government to the Medici of Florence. (Original) Dal 1555 Pitigliano ha ospitato una comunità ebraica sotto la signoria degli Orsini. Infatti Paolo IV con una bolla impose che nel territorio dello stato della chiesa le comunità ebraiche fossero consentite solo a Roma, Ancona e Civitavecchia. Quindi molti cittadini di religione ebraica si stabilirono in questa città di confine che prese il nome di Piccola Gerusalemme della Maremma. La comunità ebraica ottenne la conferma dei diritti anche con il passaggio del governo ai Medici di Firenze.

(Translated by Google) Mandatory stop if you come to visit Pitigliano. You have access to the synagogue and the underground rooms where the Jewish community carried out their activities (Original) Tappa obbligatoria se si viene in visita a Pitigliano.

(Translated by Google) I had never seen anything like it. Pain (concentration camps with everyday scenes) were mixed in this show. Rooms, many rooms dug into the rock for a "daily life (if you can call it that)) of the Jews in Pitigliano over the centuries! Touching and exciting! (Original) Non avevo mai visti nulla del genere. Sono stati mescolati in questa mostra dolore ( campi dì concentramento con scene da tutti i giorni). Camere, tante camere scavate nella roccia per una vita “quotidiana ( se così si può chiamare)) degli ebrei a Pitigliano nel corso dei secoli! Toccante ed emozionante!

A very solid 5 star. We chanced upon this place and were delighted with the range of vegetarian friendly options. We ordered the tomato and garlic pasta and one of the vegetarian pizzas. Both were simple and utterly delicious. The pici were chewy and comforting and the tomato sauce fresh and tasty. We went for a half bottle of Bianco di Pitigliano which was dry, aromatic and great value. Service was prompt and friendly. Oh, and the adorable cat on front courtyard was a great dining companion!

Great food-service-spot. Really enjoyed it. Went twice in two days. It was worth it.

Delicious. The soup was really nice and tasty. Spaghetti with bacala was very very yummy. Plus the pizza gourmet with postacchio was sublime. For the pizza you can also ask the lateral with filling (I asked for anchos and cheese as lateral filling). The price is very correct. We could see the restaurant is good as many locals were also having dinner. Well done.

Was quickly seated and got a menu. We figured out what we wanted and put the menu down. And then we waited 30 minutes and nothing happened. The male waiters were busy getting people in the restaurant but totally ignored us at the table even though we tried making eye contact. Stood up and left after the 30 minutes. The owner has now replied to the review and have totally confused me and my wife with another party who also chose to leave on the same night we were there - we saw them leave. We didn't ask for anything special. We got in - was given a table inside and the menu - and then nothing happened for 30 minutes. Sadly I cannot reply to the owners reply so I am doing it this way and I cannot copy his answer into this. The restaurant was not full and the waiters were not so busy that they didn'twaste time clearing tables and getting them ready for new customers so I am not being uneducated or unrespectful. We have travelled the world and eaten out quite a lot but I have never had to wait 30 minutes just to give my order. I am not trying to haggle or anything - just giving our honest account of what happened.

Amazing pizza! Don’t listen to negative reviews. Orto and Pizza Pazza were fantastic.

Everything the best! Pizza, made at the place on the view, was quite large with a lot of topics - Capriciosa positive-surprising because of unusual ingredients. The wholegrain pizza is also possible - a huge plus. Saute of broccoli delicious. Good prices regarding to quality and size. If you want to eat a not very sweet dessert (yeah, not everyone can eat sweetness 😁) I recommend to ask a waiter about that - I got the panna cotta which wasn't included in the current menu and it was really only little-sweet (in the normal price). Waitress are great, they speak english, very sympathetic and talkative. They play a good rock music. Sorry for a long description, but it was so nice supper that I had to... 😊

Really nice place and the food was excellent!

Amazing local food! Extremely friendly staff!

Very lovely restaurant in the beautiful historical center of Pitigliano. Food was delicious, prices reasonable and restaurant staff very nice - ideal combo for spending lovely and romantic evening. I had the duck with pistachios and orange and it was so so tasty. Thank you, it's real 🤜

We had a very good experience, from the delicious food to the great service! Pici pasta was one of the best and Cinghiale was cooked very well. They also have a good selection of wine and the prices are reasonable. Recommended when you’re in Pitigliano!

We went as a group of 7. it was A Very pleasant experience, the staff was friendly and got everything right. The food was delicious and the portions were well sized. Can only recommend!

A lovely little restaraunt, we dined in the cave room at the back. A very busy Monday evening in Feb. Attentive staff, an interesting menu, very tasty. Loved the vegetable soup with poached egg. Would definitely return. Good value.

Delicious traditional Italian local cuisine. Serves my favorite dessert: Ricotta and Wisniak sour cherries 🍒

We chose this restaurant after reading the reviews and turned out to be a wise decision. The food is very tasty, the portion is big, and the price is very reasonable. Pitigliano has many restaurants and this one attracted most people says something.

The best pasta and the lamb with pistachio crust was amazing

This restaurant isn't just a gem in Italy, it stands out as a culinary masterpiece in all of Europe. The pasta dishes were so delectable that a single serving will leave you craving for more. Every item ordered was nothing short of exceptional, and the service, led by the knowledgeable and attentive Leonardo, was impeccable. His recommendations consistently led to outstanding culinary experiences.

Absolutely fantastic place! :) Excellent food - starters, main courses and desserts, very tasty local wine. Friendly and family atmosphere, smiling and kind service not only to us, but also to our two-year-old son. Thank you so much!

Tasty pasta. Strange atmosphere. Hard to describe, just a feeling. Should have reservation if you wanna sit outside. Don’t have tiramisu. It was strange for me that Italian restaurant doesn’t have a tiramisu.

Great place with great food. The portions are fair and all the meals were delicious. I tried one of their special pasta dishes and it was one of the best I had ever eaten.

We had a wonderful stay and the food was fantastic. We had the pecorino cheese as appetizer, followed by codfish and the fillet with herb crust. The millefeuille was a perfect finish of the evening. Although Pitigliano seems very empty in March, we were very happy to find a culinarian highlight in the old town.

Nice local in the inside cave, service was excellent and very friendly. Tasty food, good presentation of dishes, and you finish totally full. Totally recommended.

“Trattoria il Grillo” combines the main ingredients for a perfect Italian trattoria: typical dishes, excellent quality, big portions and affordable prices. Add an evocative location and a sociable staff and you will have an amazing lunch/dinner

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Pappardelle alla Wild boar was excellent! Along with Picic with cream and bacon ! Highly recommend!

Fantastic food! The wonderful gentlemen that served us was kind, pleasant and wasn't annoyed that we only knew a couple of Italian words 😉

Sweet staff able to squeeze me in despite full reservations on a Saturday. Delicious shrimp pasta and a great cheese board. Good for either a quick bite or for dinner.

This is a really good restaurant. It’s not expensive and the service is friendly. I ordered Taglioni gamberoni e burrata and mouse of ricotta and it was fantastic. The best restaurant from my trip in Tuscany.

Great food, also gluten free options.

Amazing pasta. Hands down one of the best I've ever had. Reasonable prices for premium quality.

Good local selection of Tuscan dishes, eat in or take away. I loved the pork medallions and the fettuccine with wild boar. The tiramisu is also a must!

Meals were way too much salty. Tiramisu was the best we had in Italy. Wine average. Staff friendly, smiling.

Rich quality food. Highly recommended the pasta dishes with gamberetti and burrata.

Friendly staff, prompt tasty food and delicious local wine, great decoration (including a 3D feature of the town along the bar), good music and ambience. The pasta was delicious - tortellini with spinach and ricotta and wild boar ragu was some of the best pasta I’ve ever had; packed full of flavour and cooked perfectly

Good quality local food well priced in an interesting cave-like room

In the very heart of Pitigliano. Very pleasant atmosphere and solid food. Local beer very good.

We had a great experience at this place. Food was delicious from the cheese and salumi selection to the first course. Perfect also for vegan as they serve a very tasty soup (I tried it even in Summer time). Location is also great and romantic, just next to the aqueduct arches. Definitely recommended!

We were lucky to be seated quickly after combined two tables for family of five, seems super rare around here! Good food at a reasonable price, sitting outside with fresh air. The stuffed ravioli are all the same with cheese and spinach, it's only the outer sauce that's different. By far the best of the three that we had was the boar Ragu. The lasagna was a little mushy.

Enoteca and a small restaurant. Very good food, local products. Good choice of wine and local beers. Friendly service.

Great list of wine, very friendly service, delicious platters

Attending The Torciata in Pitigliano festival - opened restaurant for our group of 8 persons - very good salads and lasagna - owners personal service. Grazie!!!

Best price Performance. Nothing to critisize.

Amazing experience great staff and an Italian culinary treat

Delicious !!!

(Translated by Google) Excellent... in everything, food, service, venue, we will definitely return since we are also close to Porto Ercole, thank you. (Original) Eccellente... in tutto mangiare, servizio, locale torneremo sicuramente visto che siamo anche vicini Porto Ercole grazie.

(Translated by Google) We both stayed and ate at La Corte del Ceccottino. Rooms equipped with all comforts, with very affordable prices, from welcome pastries, to coffee, to everything useful that can be in a room, of the right size and with a nice bathroom, with even a tidying up service the following day . Furthermore, we had dinner as soon as we arrived in the late evening (9.40pm), very kind waiters, as well as the owner, recommended some very good second courses to eat, stewed pork shank and wild boar, plus even if there isn't one on the menu they made a selection of mixed bruschettas. The pleasant discovery was in the bill, in which they applied a discount precisely because we were staying with them. (Original) Abbiamo sia alloggiato che mangiato a La corte del ceccottino. Camere dotate di tutti i comfort, con prezzi abbordabilissimi, dalla pasticceria di benvenuto, al caffè, a tutto quello che di utile ci può essere in una camera, della grandezza giusta e con un bel bagno, con addirittura il sevizio di riordino del giorno seguente. Inoltre abbiamo cenato appena arrivati in tarda serata (21,40), camerieri gentilissimi, così come il proprietario, ci hanno consigliato dei secondi buonissimi da mangiare, stinco di maiale e cinghiale in umido, in più anche se da menù non c'è ci hanno fatto una selezione di bruschette miste. La piacevole scoperta è stata nel conto, in cui ci hanno applicato uno sconto proprio perchè alloggiavamo da loro.

(Translated by Google) False advertising: I booked online for this restaurant which advertises a summer location and a summer menu, for the same restaurant which is located in a winter location which has nothing comparable, and advertises a card with prices disproportionate to the quantity of food and which has nothing to do with that announced on the website. ! And no one said anything at the reservation... We stayed out of politeness, but my god! And on a “super chocolate” dessert for €11 if I remember correctly, the chocolates were moldy! In the end, a lot of manners from the staff for not much. To flee at all costs! (Original) Publicité mensongère : j'ai réservé en ligne pour ce restaurant qui annonce un lieu d'été et une carte d'été, pour le même restaurant qui se trouve sur un lieu d'hiver qui n'a rien de comparable, et annonce une carte aux prix disproportionnés à la quantité de nourriture et qui n'a rien à voir avec celle annoncée sur le site internet. ! Et personne n'a rien dit à la réservation... Nous sommes restés par politesse, mais mon dieu ! Et sur un dessert "super chocolat" à 11€ si je me souviens bien, les chocolats étaient moisis ! En fin de compte, beaucoup de manières du personnel pour pas grand chose. À fuir à toutes enjambées !

(Translated by Google) Excellent treatment. Very delicious and homemade food, with typical dishes from the area and typical dessert. Highly highly recommended. (Original) Trato excelente. Comida muy rica y casera, con platos típicos de la zona y postre típico. Muy muy recomendable.
