Who we are

WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT THE TUSCAN CUISINE

Osteria del Borgo was born from the great passion of Alba for the Tuscan cuisine: loving a land also means preserving its traditions. We love our cuisine and prepare its dishes each day with genuine seasonal ingredients, following with care and love the old "grandmother’s" recipes. In addition to our rich menu, we offer every day special dishes with seasonal ingredients. Always ask us the dishes of the day: you will have wonderful surprises!

WE ARE A HAVEN TO REST FOR TRAVELERS!

We are on the main street of Mensano, in the heart of the ancient town. In winter we have two beautiful indoor rooms, where you can spend your time pleasantly tasting our dishes and our wines. In summer, we also set out the tables outside, on the main street. If you come to Mensano for lunch, stop and enjoy some dishes from us! If you prefer to have dinner with us, we recommend you always book first!

WE ARE THE KEEPERS OF SACRED TRADITION

Our cuisine is absolutely traditional. We believe that the tradition of Tuscan cuisine is a wonderful treasure chest of delicacies: the combinations of flavors, the use of aromatic herbs, the preparation of meat, the variety of vegetables, wine tasting, and the taste of our oil. An ancient, poor and rich culinary tradition at the same time: poor because it is derived from the fruits of our land and the millenarian local farming tradition, rich because all its flavors are made of harmony, tranquility and beauty.

WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF PEACE, NATURE AND BEAUTY

Mensano is located in the high hilly area of Valdelsa, a few kilometers from Casole d'Elsa. It overlooks a rocky cliff overlooking the Metalliferous Hills, offering a truly breathtaking view that allows you to look up to the sea when the weather allows it. Our wonderful town is completely enclosed by a magical silence, through which you can walk from one street to the other, from bottom to top, to the highest point of the village, where you can stay in the quiet to contemplate the beauty of our land.

Eating at our Osteria means first getting to this wonderful medieval village in the heart of Valdelsa. Mensano is a real gem, made up of ancient streets that climb softly to marvelous heights: from here you can see every corner of the surroundings, made of woods, villages, small valleys and hills. When there is good weather, you can see up to the sea! In the heart of the village, we are on the main street: to offer a good lunch to all the passers-by and tasty dinners to groups of friends and couples. Come and visit us, we will surprise you!
