An enchanted location that is truly one of a kind, surrounded by the stunning Tuscan countryside.
Fall in love with the elegant flavors proposed by our Chef, created to make every dinner an unforgettable experience.
Opening days: Friday to Tuesday, from 7:00 pm to 10:30 pm (last booking at 9:00 pm).
The philosophy
Davide De Simone, originally from Sicily, started out on his career in the world of haute cuisine working in some of London’s most exclusive restaurants. Here, influenced by different gastronomic cultures, he began to experiment with his own versions of the flavours and aromas he grew up with, creating surprising, innovative combinations with premium ingredients.
At La Rocca di Castelfalfi, Chef Davide leads guests on a culinary journey that begins with his roots and evolves along ever-changing paths.
The "Ode to Spring" tasting menu celebrates the awakening of nature and the delicate flavors of spring. Each dish tells a story of emotions, memories, and new discoveries, combining fresh, authentic ingredients with a touch of creativity.
Like a blooming garden, every creation reflects the colors, aromas, and light of spring, paying homage to the natural beauty surrounding Castelfalfi.
