Our server told us that this previously a cave. How often do you get to dine in a cave? The inside of the restaurant is of this stone like space. We were immediately captivated. While it does not currently have a Michelin rating, we were told it previously had a Micheline rating. The atmosphere is that of a cave...cool, a little damp, and intimate. San Guiseppe has wine cellar, according to staff, date back. We felt totally and complete immersed in history and that was only the building. centuries of Sienese life. The cuisine honors Tuscan tradition while elevating it through precision and care. Each dish showcases excellent ingredients and confident execution, embracing regional flavors rather than reinventing them. San Guissppe feature traditional dishes such as handmade pasta, rich sauces, and tenders meats showcasing distinct flavors with bold seasoning. We order lasaguna and cheese salad...absolutely superb! Our servers were superior...waiting on you hand and foot. You did not ask for anything as it was already there. Our server, Marco, was kind, humorous and knowledgeable. Since it was our first time to the restaurant he was super patient and informative regarding menu items. La Taverna di San Giuseppe has s long-term Michelin recognition for a reason...superior food and excellent service in a very unique space. We savored every bite and sip we consumed in San Giuseppe. When we are in Tuscany again, we will make a beeline for this restaurant.

Taverna di San Giuseppe was a disappointing meal for us, especially in a city with so many great…read moredining options. We ended up here by mistake (confused it with another spot), and unfortunately it didn't live up to expectations. The restaurant fills up with reservations for two seatings, and from the moment we sat down the pace felt rushed. We ordered drinks and a starter while deciding on the rest, but multiple staff members kept coming by trying to take our full order. It felt like they were pushing to move things along quickly. There were a couple positives. The chicken livers to start were quite tasty and something we didn't see often on other menus. The primi were underwhelming. The pasta didn't taste fresh like many other trattorias in Siena, and the dishes overall were just average. The lasagna in particular was mushy, and the sauces didn't stand out. The secondi were slightly better -- pork ribs, Barolo-braised beef, and a "small chicken" -- but still nothing that justified the higher prices. They do have an underground wine cellar built into a cave, which is interesting to see, but there are other places in Siena with much larger and more impressive cellar spaces. Also worth noting, they add a "10% tax" charge rather than the typical €2 coperto per person. Overall, a rushed and fairly mediocre meal at a higher price point. With so many better places to eat in Siena, this is one I'd skip.

BEWARE! This place is now garbage!…read more Years ago, Doppolavore Le Foce gave us one of the most memorable meals we'd ever had. We were so taken by it that we flew from Los Angeles with family, planning several days in Tuscany just to experience it again. What we found this time was nothing short of disastrous, disappointing and regrettable. When we arrived, we were informed that the restaurant is now under new ownership. Still, we held onto hope that the quality would remain. Instead, our meal was quickly derailed by our server, Luciano, who was astoundingly rude and dismissive from the start. Though my Italian is conversational, he failed to engage with my requests, brushing me off with barely-concealed impatience. When my mother asked for a smaller portion of steak, I caught him rolling his eyes. As a vegetarian, I requested a primo selection to be severed as a secondo. Which he failed to honor. And when I ask for a green salad, he offered me a chicken salad. He then repeatedly tried to push unwanted dishes, like a caprese salad I had to decline three times before he finally stopped including it in the list of items that we wanted. My parents ordered a reasonable portion of steak, yet Luciano brought an absurdly oversized cut, resulting in an eye-popping €114 charge. It was clear he cared more about driving up the bill than listening to our requests. When I raised these issues with the owner, hoping for understanding, he defended Luciano's poor service and made little to no effort to rectify our experience. Eventually, they sent over a manager, who was courteous and offered us complimentary drinks and a return meal - which we declined. The manager was indeed kind and completely understood my Italian. Adding insult to injury, the food sub-par. I've had more satisfying pasta at American chain restaurants. But the worst came later: I spent the entire night sick with food poisoning!! I'm serious!! I spent the remainder of the night curled up on the bathroom floor of our villa, instead of in a bed. And the next day, I couldn't eat anything!! This iteration of Doppolovo robbed me of a fantasy meal; and left a bad taste in my mouth; literally and figuratively speaking. Please don't make the same mistake we did. Save yourself the money, health risk, and disappointment. Doppolavore Le Foce is no longer worth a visit - avoid it at all costs.
