Chianti's Valentine's menu is here! Book your romantic dinner here.
Choosing what to order on Valentine’s Day can be harder than choosing the restaurant itself. You want something indulgent, comforting, celebratory, and still easy to share.
That is exactly why Chianti Ristorante has designed its Valentine’s Special Menu as an experience rather than just a list of dishes.
Here is a simple, no-overthinking guide on what to order at Chianti this Valentine’s Week (February 11–15), whether you love sharing plates, indulgent mains, or ending the night on a sweet note.
Table of Contents
Start with Something to Share
Valentine’s meals are better when the table fills up slowly.
Order if you want comforting, crowd-pleasing starters:
Arancini Pesto for that crisp outside, gooey centre moment
Gamberi Fritto if you enjoy crunchy, indulgent bites
Order if you prefer warm, cosy flavours:
Funghi al Forno con Pollo, baked mushrooms with creamy chicken filling
Piadina con Verdure Arrosto e Burrata, perfect for tearing and sharing
Wine pairing tip: Start light. A crisp white or sparkling wine works beautifully with fried antipasti and creamy starters, keeping the palate fresh.
Balance It Out with a Fresh Insalata
A good Italian meal knows when to pause before the indulgence continues.
Insalata Prugne Burrata, with roasted plums and silky burrata for sweet-meets-savory flavours
Insalata Confit Pollo, tender chicken with vibrant greens and olives for something hearty yet fresh
Wine pairing tip: A dry rosé or a light-bodied white complements the freshness without overpowering the flavours.
Choose One Pizza to Share (Trust Us)
Even on Valentine’s, pizza deserves a place at the table.
Order Pizza Carbonara that’s rich, smoky, and deeply comforting, if you love creamy, indulgent flavours
If you prefer lighter, herby notes, Pizza Pesto Cremosa, topped with cherry tomatoes and burrata, should be your perfect choice
Wine pairing tip: For creamy pizzas, a medium-bodied white works best. If you lean towards pesto and herbs, a light red can add warmth without heaviness.
