La Favorita - SIENA

GET THE GELATO!!! It is amazing and cheap. Highly recommend the pistachio (the one with a hard layer of Pistachio/white chocolate on top), lemon and the cherry flavours

We got the chef calzone which included walnuts, ham, mozzarella, pesto, and pecorino cheese. It was ginormous I took a photo of it with my hand next to it so you can get the idea of the size. We still got the margarita pizza which was a decent size plenty for two people but the inside of the pizza was too watery. The dough on the pizza and the calzone was superb. Service was a bit slow, and the pizza would have been fabulous had it have not been watery?

I've been coming here for years, since Giovanni Carli took this place in his hands. The restaurant/bar/lounge is fantastically managed, with high quality food and drinks, and very efficient staff. You can enjoy a beyond generous aperitivo, the best gelato in the world, or a complete dinner in their 3-seasons gazebo, outside under the stars, or downstairs. Either way, you know you'll have a great meal. Appetizers are delicious, primi piatti very tasty and secondi piatti super inventive. You'll enjoy your meal, here, whether you are a traditionalist or are looking for something more modern. They organize theme evenings, too, so stay tuned for special events. I can't recommend this place more.

Good price quality ratio. always crowded but fast

Hard meat to cut and chew... Sauces badly cut...Pizza discreta but, with dough not digerible
