When our guests come to Montalcino, we always recommend that they experience at least one meal at Re di Macchia. Antonio and Roberta have been cooking traditional Tuscan foods for over 20 years in Montalcino.
Open for lunch and dinner, with Thursday’s off, you will find great food, reasonable wine prices, and at atmosphere that will remind you of home. Never rushed, and always well fed, our friends rave about the perfect simplicity of the foods prepared in the kitchen.
“I have been coming to Re di Macchia for over 25 years and the same husband and wife team have been creating delightful dishes with amazing consistency – a true work of passion!” – Brian Pasch
Make sure you try a few of the appetizers before your meal includes a mixed meat and cheese plate with honey, the bruschetta, and the liver pate. Their pasta dishes are amazing and if you like a lighter meat dish, try the sliced beef braised and cooked in Brunello wine.
Many regions in Italy have their own style of pasta and Montalcino is not different. The locals love “pinci” pasta, which is a thicker spaghetti and in other regions the pasta is called “pici”. The go to favorite sauce is the wild boar ragu, called Pinci Cinghiale.
While there are many great places in Montalcino to have this local dish, Re di Macchia has our vote for the best in town. This dish is often topped with a “sprig” of rosemary, as shown in the photo above.
