# How to Spot a Good Trattoria in Siena
After 200+ meals in Siena, the patterns are clear. Use this checklist before sitting down.
Key facts
- Menu in Italian first, with English on request — not a laminated multi-language card.
- Short menu: 6-10 primi, 4-6 secondi. Long menus mean frozen.
- Half-full of Italian speakers at 20:30 on a weeknight = good sign.
- Pici listed with the dressing (cacio e pepe, ragu, aglione) not as a generic 'pasta'.
- Wine by the carafe at 5-7 euro per quarter liter = honest place.
What I tell visitors
Trust trattorias 10-15 minutes walk from the Campo. The further out, the better the ratio of locals to tourists.
