Ristorante La Piana — Restaurant in Castiglion Fiorentino

A wonderful restaurant; gorgeous food with a spectacular sunset view and lovely staff and service.

We have been staying in a villa just outside of castigation fiorentino and have fallen in love with the old town and area.

However wonderful the simple diet of local foods, I fancied seeing what a good chef could do with such quality ingredients, and have been desperate to sit and watch the Tuscan sunset in style.

La Piana delivered in style; a modern twist on some Tuscan classics, great house wine and wonderful service… and what a view.

I love watching the swifts swoop by as the sunsets..

The Chianina veal tonnato melted in the mouth, with the tuna sauce subtly and just a bit salty and the giant capers cutting through perfectly..

The handmade pappardelle was everything you would expect from a fine Italian restaurant with a rich sauce I couldn’t leave a drop off, and I was recommended the days special of a gorgeous pork chop.

Would highly recommend and have even offered to baby sit so my sister and brother-in-law can enjoy...

We arrived (without a reservation, but would advice making one for earlier hours) in search of a late dinner in the busy week of the vintage festival. Without question a table was prepared for us. Staff was absolutely lovely. I told one person I didn't eat pork, and while originally this wasn't relayed to the person bringing out a small bite (which happened to be pork meatballs, and according to my partner were delicious), but a minute later they had something else for me. Staff was attentive and very kind at our basic attempts at Italian (they speak English we just like to practice), the pace was good, pricing was good, and there was a lovely atmosphere and night time panaromic view. And most importantly the food was delicious. Would...

Duck was good but dry, without any significant flavoring to enhance the duck. A missed opportunity to use the natural flavoring and juices of such a generous piece of meat.

This restaurant is attempting a fine dining experience. Nice atmosphere and the location. But the menu is trying too hard to BE something It's not. The simple, pleasant local ingredients should not be made into dry, flavorless, cold small plates.

Nice place for a cocktail. Fresh pastas was best part, but all were without inspiration completely void of anything savory.

Location is...
