One of a kind Vegan experience - Edit
Perhaps one of the finest, most memorable vegan dining experiences I’ve ever had. il Brucaliffo Cucina is impressive on so many levels. From the amazing panoramic views of Tuscan hills, to the personable service from owner-chef-server Matteo. The food though, unsurprisingly, is the highlight. With an incredible four course meal prepped and presented by Matteo himself. He explains the intricacies of each dish including where a lot of the ingredients are sourced from. It was very interesting. Presentation is beautiful and the flavor is exquisite. His cashew cheese and beetroot salami will stick with me forever. Everything is timed perfectly, allowing customers to enjoy each well-portioned dish, digest and wait for the next one, keeping you hungry for more yet satisfied until the very end. Thank you Matteo for your hospitality and your culinary talents. Will be back one day. Big YES.

Nulla lasciato al caso - Edit
Questa è stata tra le migliori esperienze culinarie di sempre. I tavoli sono all’aperto in un casale incantevole con una vista mozzafiato. Ogni portata consegnata dallo chef/mago in persona, una delizia. Altamente raccomandato. Prenotate con anticipo e portate una giacca!

Culinary highlight of our trip to Tuscany - Edit
At "Il Brucaliffo Home Restaurant," we had truly outstanding and inventive vegan dishes. It was the culinary highlight of our trip to Tuscany, offering fresh, homemade meals that easily rival fine dining experiences in big cities.

Love, details, flavors.. the whole experience! - Edit
This was absolutely one experience to remember! Matteo is incredibly attentive with the preparation of every dish. The textures, contrasts, flavors.. you can see that every component of the dish was well thought through, and the execution is superb. The small restaurant counts with 4 tables, and you need to make a reservation in advance. The €35 euros per person is a bargain giving the amazing experience and taste of whole foods. We ate the best vegan cheese of our lives! Water and coffee are also included in the package. The menu changes weekly.

Matteo's partner owns an animal sanctuary and a vegan hotel. They produce some products on her farm, and you can purchase them for €4 (we are taking a pack of pici and tagliatelle home).
I can't wait to be back in Tuscany and visit their restaurant again!

Amazing experience w/a stunning view - Edit
It’s a shock at first because the view is just gorgeous. It feels very private, there are only 3 tables outside. Wear warm clothes because it gets chilly at night. They lent me a blanket to put on my lap since I was cold, which was really nice. The food was really great. I tried something I’ve never tried before which was vegan blue cheese. My mouth is watering thinking about it. The food changes weekly. I wasn’t crazy about the dessert- I don’t know if Matteo bakes or if they get it from somewhere. It was nice to meet like-minded compassionate vegan people!!

The most memorable meal of our trip! - Edit
This was such a wonderful, personal, and delicious meal! Matteo's food and presentation were amazing - each dish was better than the last (the cheese and focaccia were a favorite, along with the gazpacho, although it sounds like the menu changes often). You cannot beat the view from the property, either. All around terrific experience. There is only space for a few groups to dine, and the level of attention for each course was great - you can tell Matteo really cares about his food as well as animals. Don't skip going here, and be sure to make a reservation!

Dinner for the soul - Edit
The fabulous location and the big heart of the hosts alone are remarkable. Matteo's four-course menu exceeded all of our expectations. We can fully recommend Il Brucaliffo cucina Ribelle. Sabine, Hubert and Islay

Puro talento - Edit
Lui ha riconosciuto di avere questo innato talento per la cucina e ha avuto il colpo di genio di aprire questo home restaurant in un posto incredibile. Ogni portata del menu fisso che ci ha proposto ci ha lasciati a bocca aperta, finivi quello che c’era nel piatto e avevi subito voglia di fare il bis. Ma anche la scelta dei vini è di altissimo livello, tutti vegani e locali. Ci torniamo?

Un esperienza sensoriale per il palato e per l'anima - Edit
Nella splendida cornice della Val d'Orcia, di fronte ad una vista meravigliosa, lo chef Matteo Russo elabora armoniosamente materie prime autoprodotte, tutte rigorosamente vegetali, trasformandole in piatti dove tradizione ed innovazione si fondono dando vita a piatti da gran cuisine. Ottima anche la selezione dei vini. Accoglienza, cortesia e calore accompagnano questa esperienza sensoriale assolutamente da provare.
