Our story
A family trattoria, cooking since 1998
Marco in the kitchen, his mother on the pasta, a cellar from the local area.
A family kitchen
Trattoria Prova opened in 1998 in the old town of Montepulciano. Today Marco, chef and owner, is in the kitchen: the second generation. His mother is still there, and the pasta remains hers.
The menu follows Sienese tradition. The pici are rolled by hand every morning. The Chianina beef comes from a farm in the Valdichiana. Then there are soups, ribollita, peposo and homemade desserts.
The dining room and the terrace
The stone dining room with its barrel vaults seats 40. In summer the terrace on the little square opens, with 20 more seats. It is the right place for a dinner for two, a Sunday family lunch or a business dinner. For private events we can host up to 40 people.
The cellar
The wine list has 60 labels of Nobile di Montepulciano, chosen from small producers in the area. If you are visiting the wineries and want to know what to pair with your dish, ask in the dining room: we are happy to help.
