Arnolfo Tuscany

Arnolfo sits on Viale della Rimembranza in Colle di Val d’Elsa. It holds two stars in the Michelin Guide, is ranked no. 23 on La Liste, and appears in the 50 Top Italy list of the 25 best restaurants in the country.

The venue serves a mix of traditional and modern Italian cuisine, and the room runs smart. While most visitors flock to the tourist epicentres of the region, Arnolfo offers a necessary distance from the crush of the city; it sits a twenty-five-minute walk from the Duomo di Siena. Choosing this table over the competition in the historic core means trading the constant churn of central foot traffic for a considered, quiet space. It is the choice for those who value the precision of a two-star kitchen over the convenience of a cathedral-side seat.
