The best views of Siena are on top of the Museo Dell'Opera Metropolitana and the Fortezza. The best time to go to Siena is during the summer. The Palio - the horse race/festival Siena is known for is a must see. The Sienese get all worked up and party all through the summer representing their contradas (neighborhoods) by wearing flags. Go to Il Campo at night - have dinner, or sit around and share some wine with friends. Don't drink? Have some gelato or a granita from Gelateria Caribia.

For dance club enthusiasts, Florence is your best bet, but there is always Tendenza's. Thursday nights are usually the best. Otherwise, there are the pubs. I like Bogart Internet Rock and the Tea Room (both alongside Piazza del Mercato). Irish Pub usually doesn't have a whole lot of locals. Red Baron and (Siena) Rock Cafe are usually crowded. Watch out for crazies though.

I love the Tea Room and Bar Porrione. The Tea Room is great for a mellow night and Bar Porrione is the best place for cheap vino at night. Tutto Pizza and Pizzaland have the best pizza al taglio in the city.
