"A modern bistro, with tables in the middle between the brick wall and the New York-style counter, owner Camelia Decu takes care of the cuisine, both land and sea. A taste of her now-iconic dessert is highly recommended, the "Coffee on a Fork": caramel on the bottom, Portuguese-style milk coffee in the middle and plenty of cream on top." - Michelin Inspector
We visited this restaurant one evening and it was so good that we immediately booked a table for the following night…it was impossible not to come back.
The first night we had the fish of the day, an orata cooked to perfection, and pasta with duck ragù both unforgettable. The second night we tried the carbonara and beef cheek, and again we were blown away. Both dishes were extraordinary.
The service was just as impressive. Our server gave excellent recommendations, clearly understanding that travelers want to explore local cuisine and products.
A wonderful hidden gem in Grosseto. We will remember the food forever and that’s what you travel for.

Fantastic Italian cousin! Everyone enjoying delicious food, a MUST visit. We had the catch of the day, really very tasty; pasta carbonara, made very special, unique, with wonderful taste composition, and finally dark chocolate mousse! Service was excellent and a very engaged owner taking care of the wellbeing of all guests.

Great restaurant with a passionate and warm owner. With personality and culinary knowledge you’ll eat some of the best dishes when in Italy. A must visit. Please ask the owner for her childhood dessert, it’s one of the most satisfying desserts you’ll ever going to eat!

We came here with our 9 month old baby and the owner Camelia made us feel so warmly welcomed. She personally walked us through the different dishes of the day, and recommended the freshest catch and wine as well. Our baby was noisy but we were made to feel like family! The seafood here is excellent, ingredients are impeccable. We were even able to feed our baby some seafood and vegetables. The dessert is also very lovely - creme brûlée texture was completely perfect and delicious. Then owner’s mother and son were also there, also kind and helpful.
If you want to feel like family and eat like family, come here!

We had great cooking here, but also atmosphere, good wine choices and very welcoming staff. The owner showed her passion for quality food and experiences in our conversation with her and the meal that we had. It is no surprise that they are Michelin rated for many years past and present. It was a memorable evening on all counts.

Food and service are excellent, atmosphere is great thanks to the courtesy and friendliness of the owner. Gran Tosco offers plenty of well prepared and delicious dishes and has an excellent wine choice. I do recommend it to visitors and tourists if they happen to stay in or stroll through the center of Grosseto.

Please update your hours on Google Maps and the Michelin app. No fun coming from afar to find you closed when you’re supposed to be open.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. We were treated so well. We stopped for lunch after a long day of travel with some cranky kids, and the staff couldn’t have been more lovely. They ensured everyone had something they were happy with. All of the food was delicious. The carbonara and beef cheek were highlights, but everyone loved what they had. Highly recommended!!!

We came by for lunch which opens at 12:30 like most of the restaurants in the area...This is some of the best food you will find in the region. They make their own pasta (obviously) and each item is cooked to perfection.
The service is 5 stars and well worth trying. Do yourselves a favor and give this place a try.

One of the best restaurants on the planet. Owner operated. The owner is even better then the food, which is to die for. Do not leave Grosseto without paying a visit to this gem of a restaurant.
