Il sale is a small restaurant on the hills above San Vincenzo. It's part of the Poggio ai santi…read moreagritourismo. To make it very short: I would give it a six star rating if I could. The food is magnficient. The menu consists of a "al terre" and "al mare" part. Although Toscany is normally not known for their seafood dishes chief Danny offers expectional and really inspiring dishes around fish and sea food. The "terre" part is very nice too. It is based on traditional toscan dishes which are just a bit refined to make it a really memorable experience. What is also noteable is that the order is taken by the executive chief himself (Danny) and he loves to explain every dish in great detail. They also hold one michelin star (2010).

Music was playing from outdoor speakers and the selections were great, mostly rock n roll from all decades. They are really trying to evoke a relaxed atmosphere. Our server was friendly and spoke English. We ordered a negroni cocktail and a "Negroski" an amusing variant which uses vodka instead of gin. She brought us plates of charcuterie, cheese, stuffed hot peppers, bruschetta and pita. All was very tasty. So we decided to order another beverage, and surprise surprise we received ANOTHER batch of food. Is it impossible to get drunk in Italy? Lol. The only reason we didn't get a third drink is because we were concerned we would get more food, ha ha. Did we finish the food? Yes. Did we go to dinner later? Yes. This place was wonderful and a very pleasant surprise to be located inside a tourist site.

2nd Best in town…read more We've been in San Vincenzo before and know this place from last time. So we came back this year and hoped it would still be as good. And it's still pretty much the same (mostly in a good way). After it was fully booked on the weekend we came back on a weekday....plenty of tables left. We had some warm Crostini for a starter with two glasses of Spritz (Prosecco with Aperol). A really good choice. Crostini topped with fatty Pancetta, meat, paprika-spread, tomato, artichokes and radicchio. Good to share for two. For the mains we had the Seafood Spaghetti and Pasta with crema di Porcini. The Seafood Pasta is still great. The Pasta with Crema was new to us....interesting combination and very filling. We had some house wine with that (half liter for 4 Euros!). The service was - and this hasn't changed - a bit basic. But the reason could also be that the service doesn't speak much english - and our skills in italian are not really good too. But that's fine....we got what we wanted. And dogs are welcome too! It's a really good restaurant. Our #2 in town (behind "Xke Qua"). Be sure not to miss it, since it's a bit on the northern end of town, but beside a huge parking lot. Surely would go back. Prices are fair too.

Very nice staff and perfect food for the money! We will be back ;-) place is situated at a parking…read morespace close to the city center, very calm and nice spot to enjoy a good meal before going to the sea or city center... Thumbs up!
