Instant confirmation or on request: what actually changes
On the same page, two restaurants can behave in two different ways. The difference isn’t cosmetic: it’s whether the table is yours or not.

Where the listings come from, and why they’re sometimes wrong
No restaurateur asked to be here. That’s why the catalogue is broad, and it’s also why it goes stale.

«All verified»: what it means, and what it doesn’t
Here a review is tied to a meal that took place. It is an inconvenient rule — it shuts a lot of people out — and everything that «all verified» can promise lives inside it.

Eating in Arezzo
Arezzo holds four valleys together — Valdichiana, Casentino, Valtiberina, Valdarno — and each brings something of its own to the table.
The city's dishes
- Grifi all'aretina — veal muzzle stewed slowly in tomato and served with bread. It is the signature dish, and you will not find it elsewhere;
- Scottiglia — mixed meats stewed together, from the Casentino, served over bread;
- Acquacotta — bread, onion, vegetables and egg: the woodcutters' soup of the Casentino.
The beef
Chianina is the breed of the Valdichiana, and it is what the steak is made of across Tuscany. Here you are on its home ground.
The rest
Casentino ham, the pecorino of the same valleys, and cantucci beside a glass of vin santo. The wine is Chianti dei Colli Aretini and, in the Valdichiana, red Vernaccia.
Opening hours and closing days change. The ones on the listings come from public sources and may be out of date. Where a restaurant confirms tables with us, the availability you see is the real one.
