Trattoria Latte di Luna

AMAZING food. It is a simple looking place but they are good at what they are offering: Food. We found this by chance and they had my favourite pasta dish pasta olio aglio e peperoncino on the menu so I had to try it (because it is a simple dish but when it is done right, it is incredible). It was so good and tasty. Just perfect. My husband had the lasagna with truffles and he said it was brilliant. We also enjoyed their tiramisu and salad. They know what they are doing. Very simple straightforward menu. If you go here, you won't be disappointed.

This is a place I keep returning to whenever I’m in the area and I recommend it for everyone to eat here at least once. Food is always amazing. It’s a family run business and you can feel their hospitality and how everything is homemade. Pici is always my go to, and spicy tomato and garlic sauce is to die for. Last time we tried roast duck for the first time, and it was so delicious 🤤 Can’t wait to go there again and try new dishes! Oh and desserts, mud cake with pear, pistachio pie… you just can’t get enough!

Excellent food! Everything was perfection. Pasta is perfectly cooked, homemade and al dente. We had the large garlic clove with tomato sauce (pici pasta and garlic are regional specialties) The roasted pork was perfection!! Boiled and then fried potatoes delicious too. We always order several items and share, the Italian family way. Desserts excellent too. Especially the chocolate flourless cake with mint ice cream. Really busy here so make a reservation.

If you are able to eat at Trattoria Latte di Luna, do it!! It is easily the best pasta we have had during our time in Tuscana. The staff are amazing, and we were lucky to meet the grandma, mom and dad that made our dishes. They went out of their way to make a special dish for my son and then brought us a sample dish not on the menu because we expressed our love of spicy food. The pici is delectable and the fact you can customize your preferred pasta with the sauce of your choice makes the experience unique to you. We particularly loved the pici and gnocchi pasta with the caci e tartufo (with freshly shaved tartufo/truffles on top) sauce that is rich and creamy and the pomodoro sauce, which is so fresh and flavorful! We had plans to get gelato somewhere else but after experiencing the amazing food we decided we had to order dessert here too. We had tiramisu (made by Carmella, daughter/granddaughter of the owners, our fabulous waitress!) that managed to be both light and creamy and the perfect end to the best meal we've had on our trip. Thank you to the Trattoria Latte di Luna family and staff for the exceptional experience!

We had lunch at this charming family-owned restaurant, "Trattoria," on April 29, 2024, during our visit to the picturesque village of Pienza. As a group of four discerning Italians, we have high standards for food and are naturally skeptical about dining in touristy spots. Our experience exceeded all expectations, thanks in large part to the exceptional service provided by Ludovica. The food was absolutely exceptional, and the entire staff was incredibly friendly, hospitable, and made us feel right at home. I highly recommend indulging in the exquisite bruschetta with fegatelli, as well as the delectable gnocchi with cheese and truffle, crowned with delightful slices of truffle. To our delight, they even served us a complimentary half portion of "pici all'aglione," insisting that we try it. The pricing was also more than fair. We are already looking forward to returning!

Latte di Luna has been our favorite stop in Pienza for about 20 years. The food is amazing Specialties are Maialino da latte arrosto and PICI with choice of sauce. I've tried them all and can't decide on a favorite. The service is warm and friendly ! It's a family bussiness so we remember our Hostess since se was a toddler. Now I think she's in charge while the owner her Dad (Roberto) and mom run the kitchen. She does an amazing job. We always return when in Italy ! This place is a magnet for us and many others that visit regularly.
