Je ne mets qu'une étoile car en mettre zéro est impossible. Réservons pour 21.30 pm, arrivons à 21.35. Attendons à l'entrée, sans qu'aucun des 4 ou 5 serveurs ne daignent nous jeter un oeil. 15 minutes plus tard environ, nous sommes invités à venir nous installer à notre table. L'attitude des différents serveurs jusque là nous confirme un ressenti déjà bien présent : ils sont aimables comme des portes de prison. La terrasse jouxte une route passante. Nous commandons la nourriture (nous y reviendrons) et une bouteille de vin, qui ne vient pas. Nous relançons le serveur, par trois fois, sur une période de dix minutes. La bouteille arrive finalement au bout d'un quart d'heure, chaude au point d'en être difficilement buvable (et acide qui plus est). Les trois pauvres glaçons du contenant n'y pourront rien. Concernant la nourriture, la carte propose un large choix de viandes (enfin un point positif !) Cependant, le serveur nous explique qu'il est trop tard (22h environ) pour commander de la viande, mais qu'exceptionnellement, il peut faire un geste en nous permettant de commander la pièce la plus chère (25€ l'unité, pour un filet de boeuf) nous en prenons donc deux. Notons que tout ceci s'est fait en rigolant de la part du serveur, qui avait l'air de prendre son pied. Précisons que notre voisin, assis à la table d'à côté (un italien) est arrivé avant nous et a commandé la même chose - bien évidemment-. La viande arrive, nervurée, sans saveurs et trop cuite, bien que demandée saignante, ne valant absolument pas son prix. Nous avons également payé pour des garnitures sans saveurs et avons obtenu avec difficulté du sel et du poivre. L'eau gazeuse était bonne (un autre point positif !). Nous avons malgré tout pris le temps de manger et avons constaté que nous avions fini nos assiettes alors que notre très heureux voisin n'avait toujours rien sur sa table. Ce dernier s'est d'ailleurs agacé auprès des serveurs, qui ne faisaient que lui répéter "cinque minuti" pendant quasiment une heure. Nous avons regardé l'heure, en commandant à 22h et lui peu avant, nous avions fini à 22h45 et son assiette à fini par arriver.

Bilan :

À quoi bon réserver une table pour un horaire précis si on vous fait poiroter un quart d'heure en vous ignorant? Sachant qu'on ne nous juge pas utile de vous prévenir que la quasi totalité des viandes n'est plus disponible (1 plat sur 15 restant environ) avant de vous installer. La boisson et la viande n'étaient pas bonnes, sans compter l'attente. Même le local à coté en à eu peu pour son argent et son temps. Servir du vin blanc chaud ? Un concept, peut-être ? Et une addition à 93.80€ ! Notons qu'on ne nous as pas servi de pain mais qu'il était compris dans l'addition. Même dans un kébab, le gérant à plus de considération pour le client que dans cet endroit. Nous ne retournerons plus jamais dans ce "restaurant", dont le service et la qualité ne dépasse pas celui d'une cantine scolaire. Au passage, nous sommes français, amateurs de bonne bouffe et de vin, nous sommes peut être un peu exigeants mais nous sommes restés corrects et avons fait preuve de patience, du début à la fin, sans vraiment montrer notre agaçement. Nous pouvons donc vous garantir que le strict minimum syndical n'est absolument pas respecté. Adresse à fuir. À...

Dining at Il Trovatore in San Gimignano is nothing short of a Tuscan dream. Tucked just beyond the medieval walls of this enchanting hill town, the restaurant offers an atmosphere that balances rustic charm with genuine warmth and hospitality. But the true star here is the bistecca alla Fiorentina—a masterpiece of Tuscan cuisine. Expertly dry-aged and grilled over a wood fire, the steak arrives sizzling, perfectly charred on the outside and juicy within. The service at Il Trovatore is equally noteworthy. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about their food, the staff ensure you feel like family from the moment you arrive. Il Trovatore isn’t just one of the best places to eat in San Gimignano—it’s a reason to come back to Tuscany. For anyone serious about food, tradition, and heartfelt hospitality, this is an...

I have mixed feelings about Il Trovatore. On one hand the food is excellent and well priced, on the other they seem to have scammed us.

My wife and I went two nights in a row. The first we ordered mineral water with gas and were brought flat water though our order had been repeated back to us. We thought nothing of it. The second night, we received our bread and one piece looked to have had a bite taken out of it. I was prepared to dismiss this, but when we ordered water with gas and were given flat water again, I grew suspicious. Two different waiters on two different nights making the same obvious mistake. Coupled with the way they brought the bottle with their hands over the cap and the bread, we think they are reusing bread and refilling bottles. Not nice.

We have no concrete proof, but are not quick to make such...

I just arrived in San Gimignano this afternoon. After taking a nap whilst it rained, I went out for a walk outside of the walls of San Gimignano…as I was strolling I was overcome with such delicious smells wafting in the air that I decided I would circle back later and try Il Tratovore. I am so happy I did! I am a solo woman traveler so to begin with I felt totally welcome and well taken care of. David was phenomenal and recommended the Wild Boar Ragu which is a local dish and it was fantastico! That paired with a delicious fresh salad and soft yummy bread hit all the notes for me. The vibe is relaxed yet upscale and everyone around me was very happy with their meals from what I observed. I will definitely be back before I leave San Gimignano!!! 💚🤍♥️

My sisters and I briefly stayed in San Gimignano and this restaurant was located across from the Airbnb. The food was amazing but the hospitality was even better than that. While we were dining you look around and see locals enjoying their family and friends. One brother and sister were even playing Uno. Each meal was made with love and the gentleman assisting us recommended great dishes and beverages. When we checked out to pay the owner was working the register and gave us homemade biscotti. It was delicious. There’s nothing quite like an authentic Tuscany experience.

Starting with the taste and the diversity of the menu, everything was excellent! The restaurant is local owned, and this makes the staff extremely present and hospitable. We had some starters, great taste. Prompt service. Some ravioli, great taste! And of course, the steak: fiorentine steak - out of this world! We also had an issue with going home, and no taxi was available. The staff offered to help us and give us a ride after the peak of clients. This is going the extra mile, hat down! Thank you Il Trovatore! Definitely will come back to you!
