Boccon del Prete

Osteria Boccon del Prete is an off-the-beaten-track restaurant that serves the meal of your dreams. This place can get crowded, as it doesn’t accommodate more than a few dozen people, but the wait is worth it. Because the aperitivo menu is served buffet-style, you never quite know what you’re going to get, but if luck is on your side, you’ll get to try the house specialty: a fresh pasta dish with a light, creamy pesto sauce.

This osteria features speciies such as crispelle with cod and more classics pici (handmade pasta) with black cabbage, to name just two of the many appetizing proposals of the chef, who revisits the traditional Tuscan dishes with great imagination. The Osteria Boccon del Prete is in Via San Pietro 17, a short walk from the Duomo, is on two levels, very spacious and comfortable, ideal if you are on holiday with family or group of friends. As for the desserts, we suggest the semifreddo with Panforte and caramel, a brilliant creation that allows you to taste the most famous sweet of Siena in a new shape.

In this restaurant, you eat at the tables in the entrance hall with the wine counter (excellent choice, even the wine by the glass), and eat in the internal rooms, which also host a few groups. From the kitchen come the dishes of the day’s menu written on a blackboard, the ordinary menu, more or less all of the Tuscan tradition, and a few seafood dishes. In addition to traditional local cuisine, the chef’s delicious creations are usually served.

E solitamente, oltre a piatti della cucina locale tradizionale, vengono servite deliziose creazioni dello chef. Il servizio è impeccabile e lo staff gentile e sempre a disposizione, sin dai primi istanti ci si sente come se si fosse a casa - del resto, è un’osteria, e queste caratteristiche rientrano nello stile del locale. Tra i piatti da assaggiare, la polenta con salciccia e picci con salvia e mandole.
