Caffè del Corso — Restaurant in Siena

What a shame I didn’t read the reviews before going to that restaurant because it would have saved me time (there, & now that I am writing this), because I highly regret going to this restaurant. It’s a typical “tourist catch”. We stopped there only because we were starving & that we were tired of looking around for a place with decent prices & tables available. The staff was really rude & unfriendly. We spoke with them in Italian (& not a broken one because we speak with a good level), & they always replied in English, so why bother making an effort ? My partner had to get a waiter being bored behind the bar to get the table even though we were standing in front on the entrance for a few minutes, & he hasn’t been welcomed with a nice way at all. We waited 20mn just to get the menu, 10 more just for the waiter to realise I was waiting for him to come, & another 50mn for the food to arrive on the table. The food was decent but not wow. My partner liked his risotto, but I was disappointed by my poor portion of truffle raviolone. The inside of it was barely cooked. 50mn wait for that ? & it wasn’t only our table, but all of tables around ours. We were all looking at each other, wondering what was taking so long while eating all the “bread” provided. We obviously left before they even asked us if we wanted a dessert. Oh, & if you want to pay by card, they’ll be even more miserable. We honestly felt like we were bothering them. If they don’t like their job they better just do something else because honestly if we knew, we wouldn’t have...

My cousins and I were having a good time and actually enjoying the pizza when the waiter comes to pass my cousin something and while reaching it my cousin spills his full cocktail that he hasn’t touched yet(first picture).The waiter doesn’t acknowledge it and walks away, no help with the mess or anything I didn’t notice this part honestly it’s not the end of the world but my cousin was disheartened about his drink so I went to the bar and explained the situation and asked if it can be remade they seemed upset though I don’t think that’s a huge request, but the woman said they’re do it …20 minutes later (it was not busy at all nobody was inside and there was like two other customers out there with us) they bring us this…I’m telling you in real life there was like 20+ flies in there…it was intentional and this is a picture seconds after they served it to us so they didn’t all just fly in there they were still and not struggling I swear they gotta have a bowl of saved bug corpses that they use on Americans they don’t like cuz what the heck was that 😅 I only asked for it IF POSSIBLE if it was that big of an inconvenience then just say no to the remake is all I’m saying. This is my first time making a review I’m not like this but it had...

We have chosen this restaurant coincidentally as good rated restaurants were having a siesta time. As we have seen quite few people sitting around we have made a decision to stay there, and it was our biggest mistake. The waiter quite confused came back to us few times and with no attention took our order. First we didn’t receive our plates as we had shared pizzas. Secondly brought us water instead of beer mixing up orders from other table. Pizza was disappointing and really disgusting, I would say any pizza from supermarket would taste better. Whenever came to pay for our receipt waiter asked me which order was ours, not knowing which notes belonged to which table. We ordered Margherita for: 7euro Prosciutto: 8.50 (that was normal ham not real prosciutto) & glass of Fanta, one glass of orange juice and one beer. We ended up with 40euro bill. When I asked why there is overcharge they told me about 8euro charge for preparing our table. We ate only half of pizza as my wife didn’t want to touch it after few bites. When I told the cashier that pizza was bad he could not take any negative opinion arguing with me. Please 🙏 don’t go there if you really appreciate quality and expect having a good...
