Gourmet Tuscan
Osteria Le Logge

Via del Porrione 33, Siena
SIENA · DINING
If dinner is the question, start with the room rather than the postcode. These are the Siena restaurants already in our dining corpus that make sense for an evening in the city.
Siena is small enough that the best dinner is rarely far away, but the choice changes with the kind of evening you want. This shortlist is drawn only from restaurants already held in the Siena & Toscana Address Book and dining guides; it is not a live availability feed.
