About
Siamo due 'giganti' di altezza e d'animo tornati, al nostro giro di boa, nella città di origine. E a Cortona dove da piccoli passavamo le nostre estati spensierate. Con la gradevole nostalgia di quei ricordi è stata una naturale conseguenza che il nostro nuovo lavoro fosse un luogo di piacere dove accogliere amici e clienti. Piacere di mangiare pesce in crudità con abbinamenti e contrasti gustosi ma non prevedibili. Piacere di gustare cocktail con miscelazioni di distillati per lo più toscani. Piacere di bere una selezione di vini e metodi classici italiani, anche biologici, e champagne francesi. Piacere di dare nuova vita a un appartamento, che era della nonna, con tanti dettagli contemporanei... risultato dei nostri percorsi professionali differenti che confermano però affinità e un DNA che ci accomuna. Rimanete sintonizzati per conoscere le nostre proposte e le nostre iniziative così come noi accoglieremo le vostre per condividere serate in questo luogo di piacere.

This is what I hope for in every hill town in Italy, to wander into a culinary treat, and in Cortona, you merely have to poke your head down a little alley off the main street, Via Nazionale. The family who run this carefully curated gem delight in explaining dishes or drinks. I will always chose seafood options from a menu and 2 small plates especially were memorable, the cuttlefish salad and the cod. I don't know how a chef assembles 5 or 6 ingredients to arrive at such a pleasurable burst of flavor, but I wish you the same joy in savoring every bite. I ate there 2 nights and if it had been open on Mondays, I would have eaten there a 3rd time. p.s. Also known for cocktails, see older reviews for Giu da Scaro e Beo

The only vegetarian in the group, I took my convinced carnivorous friends to dinner in this beautiful place in the center of Cortona, a very positive experience for everyone!! Refined and informal environment at the same time, excellent quality of raw materials, well processed with truly tasty results. Very friendly staff, we would have liked just a little more talkativeness in explaining the dishes taken, which obviously was said if requested, but which can help when choosing. Quality/price ratio in line with other vegetarian restaurants I have eaten in, although the quantity/price ratio is smaller, as regards starters and first courses, portions are a bit small in our opinion.
However, a more than positive experience, we will return to visit you

We discovered it by chance, walking through Cortona. We were impressed by the location and decided to try it.
Family-run - two extremely courteous brothers - the restaurant offers vegetarian cuisine with some touches of originality, touches that are also found in aperitifs.
The place is small and offers a pleasantly quiet environment.
If you want to spend a pleasant, quiet and “good” evening, remember an easy name: Scara and Beo!

Scara e Beo - a fully plant-based gem serving amazing food. The only vegan restaurant in Cortona is truly deserving of 5 stars. Offering a taster menu or individual dishes (that can be adapted for children). My meat-eating friends and family loved it too! Run by 2 brothers, the food is prepared with love and attentiveness. Please visit here if you come to Cortona, you will not be disappointed.

As of April 2024 this restaurant has converted to a completely plant based menu. The food is beautifully presented, creative and delicious. Six entrees and two deserts or you can try the tasting menu if you are really hungry. We had the beet balls ( kind of like dumplings, flour with lots of beets, stuffed with blue non-dairy cheese) a pesto base, poached pears to die for garnished with edible herbs and flowers and the lemon hummus plus the chocolate ganache over sponge cake with berry coulis.

Tucked away in A backstreet alley. The food is the best vegetarian I have had. Ghe 2 chiefs are charming and clearly love the food.
We had the delicious tasting menu at a really competitive price. Best vege food in Tuscany. Strongly recommend.

The food is Vegan and was very tasty and looked good to the eye. Colourful and such care taken with presentation. Unfortunately we were the only customers . Which is such a shame but the area is famed for its meat.
I do hope that the tourism trade means they keep trading. Unique in Cortona

Vegetarian and vegan restaurant in the heart of Cortona, new and very welcoming place.
The owners are very kind and make you feel immediately at home.
The dishes we took were all beautiful to look at and very good to taste. Special dumplings and the club sandwich my daughter got.
We will definitely be back!!!

A surprising discovery in the heart of Cortona led by a couple of brothers, Scara at cocktails and in the dining room, and Beo in the kitchen ... an explosion of flavors with every sip and bite.
Anche l’occhio ha avuto la sua parte! I highly recommend it and again thanks for the hospitality... see you soon!
