Ristorante Gallo Nero

Don’t hesitate and just book the reservation. Incredible food, service, and atmosphere. Will be thinking about this meal for a long time. Their famous tortellini with smoked cream was good but the suckling pig pork belly is a must order if it’s on the menu.

Had a great experience. Food was delicious with amazing produce. Loved the extra courses, especially the pre and post dessert. Service made the experience even better, friendly, passionate and knowledgeable. Not the cheapest but at no point did it feel anything other than good value. Recommend for a special dinner.

A wonderful place with great food and entertaining service. Some meals were served on very special plates, or with special cultlery. The foot was tasteful and well balanced, sometimes with spectacular results. The chef dares to experiment with staple dishes and often succeeds in creating a special experience. The wine pairing was truly wonderful.

A Rising Star in Style and Flavor Recently refurbished with a stunning, modern interior, this restaurant nails both atmosphere and ambition. The chef — with Michelin-starred experience — delivers refined, creative dishes that wow without pretension. It doesn’t have a star yet, but it’s clearly on its way. We loved every moment. PS: don't get confused about the older reviews and pictures there - the restaurant is now at another level with degustación menu etc.

Nestled in the heart of Siena’s historic center, Gallo Nero is a rare gem that masterfully blends medieval charm with modern elegance. The moment you step inside, the interior design makes an immediate impression — a stunning interplay of exposed stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and ambient lighting that creates an atmosphere both intimate and grand. Many handpicked by its owner from different parts of the world. The décor is a tasteful homage to Siena’s rich history, yet subtly contemporary, with carefully chosen art pieces and sleek furnishings that elevate the entire dining experience. But Gallo Nero is far more than beautiful design — its true innovation lies in the kitchen. The menu is a creative reimagining of traditional Tuscan cuisine, where familiar Each dish is presented like a piece of art, plated with precision and often incorporating surprising elements like edible flowers, fermented accents, or avant-garde textures that push the boundaries of classic Italian fare without ever losing its soul. Among the standouts, the meat-filled ravioli deserves special mention — tender, perfectly seasoned, and complemented by a subtle sauce that enhances rather than overpowers. It’s a comforting dish, elevated by refinement and balance. Desserts continue the restaurant’s theme of innovation. The strawberry dessert is a showstopper — fresh, vibrant, and beautifully layered with textures, from a delicate sponge to a crisp tuile. Paired with their house-made ice cream, which is impossibly smooth and bursting with real fruit flavor, it ends the meal on a high note. Service is warm and knowledgeable, with the team eager to explain the inspiration behind each dish. Gallo Nero isn’t just a meal — it’s a multi-sensory journey that honors tradition while daring to innovate. A must-visit for those seeking something truly special in Siena. This is one of the few places where we eat well and it keeps us talking about it even months and years after
