Il Conte Matto — Restaurant in Unione dei Comuni Valdichiana Senese

This restaurant is not afraid to lean into flavor. And not to use it as a crutch. The pici was hug of garlic in every bite - no question the flavor but not overbearing. Like a hug from your favorite parent, not your overbearing aunt.

Absolute disrespect for...

The “pasta of the day” was tagliatelle with black truffles which was excellent. The strips of grilled Tuscan steak was fantastic and flavourful. The potatoes were so good. If you find yourself staying in one of the B&Bs nearby, or simply driving by, do yourself a favour and eat at this...
