Culinary Gems
Campo Sasso is just minutes from a handful of great family-style restaurants, perfect for when you want something easy, tasty, and close by—you certainly won’t go hungry. But every now and then, your inner foodie might kick in, and that’s when it’s worth venturing a little farther for a truly memorable meal.
When we have time to unwind at Campo Sasso, we love hopping in the car for a leisurely drive to one of our favorite destination restaurants. There are plenty of solid options nearby, but these are the places that make the journey part of the experience—and are absolutely worth it.
Just be sure to reserve a table in advance. Some of these gems are small, often full, or sometimes unexpectedly closed. A quick call ahead can save you the disappointment.

This is our favorite pizza place in our area! And...you could run into Sting & Trudie since their villa Palagio is just up the hill!
The setting is amazing - only outdoor seating - and the menu is varied and all very high quality ingredients. This is a great place to relax in the evening and enjoy a warm summer evening with some nice tunes.

​Dario Cecchini is Italy’s most famous butcher—and dining at one of his restaurants is anything but ordinary.
Guests are seated at communal tables alongside strangers who quickly become dinner companions, thanks in no small part to the free-flowing wine!
Reservations are essential, and when you book, you’ll need to choose your menu in advance. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience that’s equal parts theatre, feast, and celebration.
10 km from Campo Sasso
A fairly new restaurant in Figline Val d'Arno (the nearest larger town), run by two young Tuscan friends. They offer an excellent tasting menu—alongside an à la carte option—at a very reasonable price. You can also opt for a wine pairing, which is always a fun way to discover new flavors and lesser-known labels.
33 km from Campo Sasso
Imagine an exquisite restaurant nestled in a small luxury retreat, offering stunning views of the Conca d'Oro and Panzano in Chianti. The atmosphere is as breathtaking as the surroundings, and the food is nothing short of a culinary masterpiece. The tasting menu, priced around 100 euros, is a true indulgence from beginning to end, leaving you wondering if you'll ever want to leave!
