La Mangiatoia

There is no wonder why this restaurant has 5 stars! The service was amazing, the food was delicious, the ambience was the icing on the cake. They were more than excited to answer any questions we had and everyone was so friendly! My next trip to San Gimignano this will be our first stop!

Amazing food and people. Comida maravilhosa e bom atendimento, restaurante familiar e agradável.

One of the best restaurant in Italy. The pasta was amazing and you should try «Fantasia di Dolci» desert.

In our week visiting hill towns in Umbria and Tuscany, this restaurant stood out and served what we consider in retrospect to be our favorite dinners in the province. Originally we came at the recommendation by the people at our villa, Il Borghese. But it became a consensus winner when it came to our choice for a repeat restaurant.
Just off the main street in San Gimignano on a quiet side road, it tends to be a destination restaurant which draws its customers from recommendations and repeats. It didn’t show up in the several published guides we were using, but it is clearly an important omission.
Among our favorites were the braised wild boar, the chicken with porcini, wild boar with pici (a thick spaghetti pasta) and, most significantly, the gorgonzola soufflé. They also had one of the nicest inexpensive red wines from the local area that we came across: the Il Priore was Euro 16 at the restaurant. We liked it so much we found it at the nearby wine store and took two bottles home with us (Euro 10 per bottle at the store).
Certainly in San Gimignano, I would make as my first choice, this lovely restaurant.

Good place if you want great food and fast service all at a great price!
