You get a prepaid card, anything from 5 euros up to 50 (may go higher, but I didn't ask), or you can leave your credit card with the staff upfront and pay at the end. They have several wine 'vending machines' that you stick the card into and get to try out the wine in various amounts. You can have a sample, half glass, or full glass. The screens will tell you how much each sample will cost. Each 'Vending Machine' is sorted into categories like bubbles, whites, reds, dessert wine, etc. It's a great way to try different wines in various regions! If you like the wine you try, you can buy the bottle to take home.They have big leather couches and chairs to hang out, sip, and relax. Ever try a $100+ bottle of wine? Now is your chance :)

What a great lunch! We were seated immediately and were pleasantly surprised when the staff brought…read moreus complimentary glasses of Prosecco to start. It was a wonderful welcome. My husband ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, and I had the Diavola pizza with onions, mushrooms, and spicy salami. Both were excellent. The spaghetti was flavorful and cooked perfectly, while the pizza had one of the thinnest, crispiest crusts I've had in Italy--exactly the style I love. The toppings were generous and delicious. Just when we thought the meal was over, they brought us complimentary slices of chocolate cake, which were rich, moist, and the perfect ending. The food, service, and little extra touches made this a memorable experience. If you're in Greve in Chianti and looking for delicious pizza or pasta with friendly hospitality, I highly recommend Ristorante Pizzeria La Cantina. We'll definitely be back!

Because it was so convenient, we got to try it three days in a row: a fantastic 3-course dinner on day one, a delicious takeaway pizza on day two, and coffee and desserts on day three.

Sometimes when you're in a touristy area, the Resturant don't really care about the customers--but that is definitely not the case here. The owner is always on the floor, making sure everyone gets personal attention. It's a wonderful family-owned business, and it truly shows because this family genuinely cares. Highly, highly recommend!

We were recommended to try La Bottega del Moro. We secured the last outdoor table that was not pre-reserved. The restaurant is quite small by comparison to the other restaurants on the square in Greve. Service was excellent. I had a wonderful boar wide noodle pasta. The pasta was truly homemade. My wife had a pasta as well which she thought was perfect. When you are in Italy the house wines are typically inexpensive and very good. The house wine at del Moro was no exception. Overall, a very nice meal.

A little off the main piazza, Wine Lovers Academy offers multiple flight options, wine classes, lunch, and most of all, relaxation. Since I was traveling solo this day, I was hesitant to try a wine tasting alone, since I thought it would be boring, but not with Marco around! He made everyone who stopped in feel like they were popping into their house for a glass of wine. Perhaps my favorite part of the experience was how unique my tasting was. He carefully chooses the wines based on your preferences, so you have the chance to try different things that you are more apt to like, unlike most tastings, where everything is pre-set. Marco has also designed this very cool wine game that is great for small to medium sized groups - a twist on the normal tastings in the area. Looks like TONS of fun. Oh. And, if you get a chance to stop by, make sure to say hello to the groundhog family that lives behind the academy in the stream. Be sure to stop by! A fun time is waiting for you at Wine Lovers!

After asking staff, they informed us it was a depiction of Al Jolson - an American artist, known for performing in Black Face. Upon review of his Wikipedia page, it appears this man was seen as an ally to the black community in the early 20th century. That being said, as a mixed race family, we didn't feel comfortable returning to the restaurant having this offensive image hanging over our head. In the US the image of Black Face is considered racist. In Italy, it may not be considered problematic the way it is the US, but I imagine it may be offensive to many. Perhaps another image of this artist would be more appropriate.
