Service

The service at Octavin was friendly and knowledgeable, making us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout our meal. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a high-class dining adventure!

Excellent food in an authentic unfussy eaterie near the centre. Interesting and clever fresh food. Highly recommended for lunch

The restaurant is in a hotel, open with the lobby. Very nice staff and amazing food

This was than s meal - this was an experience. We came by chance upon Il Ciliegio and we had a wonderful evening that was all around perfect.It is a family owned family operated winery and restaurant and we came for dinner. Our first pleasant surprise was the fact that we were the only tourists - apart from us there were inly locals - already a good sign. And as there were two large birthday parties and a silver wedding dinner the atmosphere was super fun.The second surprise was the food. They only cook one menu per day for everyone, wichever mamma buys that day on the market. For the set price of 35&euro; we got a five course meal, homemade sparkling, wine, water, coffee and a limoncello at the end of the- all included! We paid three times as much in all previous locations. The food again was excellent. It was all homemade, feelgood food. Nothing fancy, but very tasty.And the service was so caring and nice, we spend over three great hours there and would return within a heartbeat.

Wonderful place- we sat outside and it felt like the whole town was eating dinner together. Cozy and family oriented with great food. Interior dining rooms were also super pretty.

We went to this restaurant because they could do gluten free.  They were very helpful in explaining the dishes.  The dishes were interesting and tasty and the wine very good for the price.  I would have no hesitation in returning.

Constantly changing interesting and very tasty seasonal menu , friendly and helpful service, great wine list .. perfect

Incredible food, wonderful service and the garden was perfect. I would highly recommend!

Nice place obviously specialising in meat dishes. Tartare was absolutely wonderful, tagliata slightly less so &mdash; tasty but nothing to write home about. Pork ribs was ok. As desert we had chocolate and rhum gelato &mdash; now THAT was quite something! All in all, a pleasant experience.

We booked at the last minute through The Fork, and in reality, the place was full. We were given the option to wait or to leave. The staff were nice except for the cashier, who seemed upset that we chose to wait (it was late and we weren&#39;t in the mood to look for something else). Other than that, the food was good.

Every year this restaurant and winebar is on our list. Always great. Very good food, great wines and lovely people. Never ever change a wi ning team.  When in Montalcino, ....  have lunch, drink wine or have dinner at Svaenen.

There ist one word to define it FANTASTICO!We have been here twice, because we love this restaurant. Service, quality of food, wine list and the unbeleavable view fron the terrace ist UNFORGETABLE!Whenever we will return to Il Caveau, be sure we will be back - Grazie de tutto, the Austrians

Service was exceptional. Great help selecting a wine based on our input.  Although it&rsquo;s primarily a steakhouse The ravioli was the best we have had in Italy.

The service was excellent. Lauren did the best of everything in terms of service.The ambience is exceptional.The menu should include some traditional offerings. Sliced steak, pasta with standard ragu sauce. The trend in restaurants today is to prepare meals in an over the top sort of way (too complicated) more about architectural presentation than a more traditional (italian home cooking) style.

wonderful experience. I took the surprise menu with wine pairing. The food was very good, and the wines matched the fishes very well. Dishes were presented in an original fashion, and the quality of the produce was very good.

We decided to dine here for our Thanksgiving dinner and we had a fabulous experience! This Michelin star restaurant deserves the accolades! We selected the 7 course Chef&#39;s choice menu which was filled with creative flare, beautiful presentations and excellent wine pairings. At first we thought the restaurant was going to be &quot;stuffy and too formal&quot; but the staff was engaging, incredibly knowledgeable and charming.

Best meal we had in Siena! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great. Luca and Mario took good care of us. Would highly recommend.

Exceptional quiet restaurant. Great wines I know Italy is famous for pasta but it is so often not done well This place is an exception. Wonderful lunch stop if touring

I highly recommend the authentic Neapolitan pizza here; it&#39;s delicious and the staff is friendly and professional.

I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent selection of wines and spirits available. The staff is friendly and attentive, making it a great place to enjoy a relaxing evening with friends.

We stayed on the property for four night and couldn&rsquo;t help but eat dinner here multiple times. Food is excellent along with the service and ambiance. Highly recommend.

What a find! It&#39;s worth the drive even if you&#39;re coming from a distance.The food was amazing and not the usual fare we&#39;ve seen everywhere else in northern Italy. The upstairs enclosed balcony was also a quiet, romantic setting facing a courtyard from 1120 AD that the owner and her brother played in when growing up in what was their grandfather&#39;s home. The service was great, too.We can highly recommend Chiostro Cennini.

The restaurant was effortlessly located. Despite being an hour late, the restaurant graciously saved our table. The service was impeccable - neither too fast nor slow. The owner&#39;s warmth was truly memorable, and our conversation about the restaurant&#39;s history was enlightening. The food was exquisite, and the taste of the bruschetta still lingers in my memory as unparalleled. As a vegetarian, I discovered delightful dishes and effortlessly harmonized my meal with that of my carnivorous husband. Great restaurant to go

We had an outdoor table and looked down the alley  towards a neighborhood street party on the evening of our visit.  Lots of fun people watching and the food/wine was excellent.

Excellent value for price: the portions were abundant and everything was home made and the personnel was kind and attentive.Highly recommended!

My daughter and I stopped in for a late lunch after traveling and made a lat minute reservation through the Fork...walked up, was seated quickly, Service was great. We had Bruschetta and Pappardelle Alla Cianghale and it was the best I have had in Italy so far!
