Casale L'antico Carro - CORTONA

We arrived without reservation at 8pm on a Saturday night and were shown a table under cover outdoors which was very pleasant. The antipasti and first course choice had a good choice of meat free options. Main courses are mostly meat, we had chicken in lemon or green pepper source which was delicious. Decent own label wine for €10 a bottle. Very good service. Reasonable prices and good value.

This place is simply great. We could make a reservation online. The staff has been super friendly. The bistecca fiorentina was one of the best in that region. All in all: go visit. It is a small place with a lot of charm and great food wine.

Wonderful place in the hills of short. clean rooms, quiet, equipped with all the essential and set up in local style. breakfast enriched with homemade cakes and the kindness of the owners. large garden and large outdoor parking. recommended!

I travel for work and sleeping in a hotel and/or eating in a restaurant is normal for me. That said, I hardly found myself in a similar situation. We were served meat dishes that I would not even have offered to my dog: Jugged wild boar (in my opinion, those who have cooked do not even know what jugged is) wicked, accompanied by pitted black olives (definitely canned or in a supermarket bag) thrown on the plate to decorate what is unknown. Sliced steak with green pepper, in a broth of water, with a bitter taste due to the burns on the meat, inflicted by the cooking grill. In short, a real disgust !!! Despite our grievances, the dishes were both counted on the bill It was late, I did not want to argue ... I paid and I preferred to avoid calling the competent authorities. In any case, not even an apology for the evidence of the facts. I didn 't get rich but you are really poor .

Nice venue a few km away from Cortona in the valley. Looked welcoming and charming on arrival. Front of house staff a bit abrupt and disappeared leaving us stranded. Felt uncomfortable. Finally found our way into an undercover outdoor eating area. Nice table in the corner. Very popular place with lots of locals. Food and wine very good, tasty and well presented. If they had been more attentive on arrival we would have given 5*. Will revisit.
