Castelfalfi restaurants
Where innovation meets traditions
With exquisite local ingredients and with the extra virgin olive oil and wine produced in the Castelfalfi estate, our chefs under the guidance of the Executive Chef Davide De Simone know how to transform everything in a delight for all the senses.
Every dish that takes shape in the restaurants of Castelfalfi is the result of a careful selection and reworking of genuine and zero km products that come, as well as from our estate, by small local farms that are committed to careful and sustainable production. Our culinary philosophy is based on the principles of quality nutrition, where the freshness and the seasonality of the ingredients are the focus of our mission.
Olivina
Created by award-winning international artist and designer Henry Chebaane, this theatrical space invites you to give way to your senses. Behold firsthand the masterful expertise of our chefs as they prepare to take your taste buds on a journey inspired by Italian and Mediterranean flavors. The Olivina restaurant in Castelfalfi takes its name from the translucent green stone which the Etruscans, the ancient inhabitants of Tuscany, called ‘gem of the sun’. An allusion to the vineyards and olive groves that characterize the surrounding landscape and its centuries-old heritage.
The interior design makes use of a rich, elegant palette of regional materials in soft terracotta, copper, oak and bronze tones as well as various shades of grains, grapes and olives, instilling a feeling of calm curiosity as you explore the dishes. Olivina features a wine room, salumeria, coffee bar and bakery. Embark on a journey through a cornucopia of flavors and aromas.
Cross the threshold into this sensory wonderland and enjoy a 5-star dining experience.
