Fonte Gaia - SIENA

Stupid behaviour of staff. We stopped there to have some drink, the first we asked for big bottle od watter. Outside was more than 30 degrees, so we were really thirsty. Big bottle of watter wasn’t allowed because we didn’t come for lunch was 3 PM . Of course we planned to have some wine, beer etc and maybe would spend there max 30 min because of waiting for our friend. But after some argues we left… tourist trap…

Great place for pre-dinner drinks. they were friendly enough to offer us a gluten-free apitivo. highly recommended. beautiful view of the square.

Offer gluten-free pasta, which has been well tasted and perfectly cooked (not muddy! . they were very attentive and brought additional gluten-free bread to the table after we had ordered a gluten-free pasta dish. prices reasonable and fair for the location.

As expected, very expensive place in front of a beautiful square in Siena. What was not expected is the level of service: my fiance accidentally bumped her coffee and spilled it on the table. The waiters are buzzing around us but no one came to replace the table cloth nor to say anything.

This review refers to my aperitivo experience. it was super windy when I was there and they had to pull into the covers. but still. the waiter from neapel was cool, fast and funny. the view of the piazza is hard to defeat. the wine was moderate, but the snacks for the aperitivo were fresh and tasty. we ate everything apart from the mozzarella (e.g. we were all polite, can not stop thinking about it, yet:D) and yes, it is in the usually a little bit less crowded than others, so they can really hear themselves about a glass of great wine. in any case there!
