OMG. If you love steak, you will love this place. The steak's are HUGE and cooked over a wood BBQ. All year round. Also has a little shop on the same strip so very handy for essentials. We really recommend this place even if it doesn't look like much.

Arguably one of the best restaurants in Siena. Will be busy so try and book ahead. Great food and excellent wine cellar. They also have a wine bar nearby. ask to look at the wine cellar and be prepared to be amazed.

the food is good, especially the pizza but the service will be slow. maybe not ideal for children due to the long wait but a good idea so long as you don't turn up already hungry.

We often go to the beach and this is a great place to stop en-route for lunch or on the way back for a spot of shopping. for a small town it has a lot to offer including a very risque mural that was recently uncovered from medieval times. it's all about fertility...
