TRATTORIA LO STRACOTTO

Italian restaurant and pizzeria €€
4/5
28 reviews
Closed - Open to 12h00

A small trattoria in the heart of the San Lorenzo district, next to the Medici chapels, appreciated by the locals. A charming address, managed with passion by Tommaso and Francesco, both from a family of Florentine restaurateurs. The premises are meticulously decorated and the "country-provençal" decoration is a pleasant change from the traditional trattoria. The welcoming terrace, open all year round, is perfect to enjoy the atmosphere of the neighbourhood and enjoy an authentic (and copious!) homemade Florentine cuisine.

BORGO ANTICO

World cuisine restaurant
4.2/5
34 reviews
Open - Close to 00h00

Borgo Antico enjoys a superb setting. In the quiet square of Santo Spirito, it is nice to relax around a complicit table. The house offers an honest selection of regional dishes, with a clear international flavour. However, à la carte dishes are a little expensive. During hot weather, the house also offers large salads. For small budgets, you'll have to fall back on a pizza. Cyclists will be able to converse with the boss who had a large mural depicting runners painted on the wall.

Not to be missed near the cathedral! A small charming restaurant that has quickly attracted both Florentine and tourist customers. The room is decorated with care and delicacy. Just look at the entrance to understand that the owners pay the same attention to detail as their customers, and the vaulted rooms lit by large French windows add a more harmonious touch. A quality menu, good Tuscan cuisine based on fresh food, a real delight. Another highlight: their pizza, an exceptional dough!

If the place is pleasant and neat, in a bistro spirit, the dishes offered at Pepò, such as ribollita (a typical Tuscan vegetable soup) orbaccalà (cod in tomato sauce, served only on Fridays), are typical and exquisite. Vegetarian dishes also. Not to spoil anything, the service is all smiles, the prices are wise considering the quality of the food and the location, just a stone's throw from the Mercato Centrale.

Apart from this special care for the customer, the strong point of this address remains its cuisine based on traditional Tuscan recipes: the quality is top-notch and the meat excellent, like the bistecca alla fiorentina, a real delight not to be missed! Dishes that stand out for their quality and effortless presentation. A pleasant discovery.

Closed - Open to 12h00

Not far from the Renaissance Medici-Riccardi palace, halfway between Piazza San Lorenzo and Piazza San Marco, this very pretty pizzeria will not leave you indifferent. Already by its friendly atmosphere and its intimate decoration. Then, on the pizza side, the original flavours and local organic products are a hit. There are few tables, so it is better to come early or book. Simbiosi is also a pretty café, with glass floors and stone walls, as well as an organic pasta restaurant for lovers of delicious homemade pasta.

Very nice sifted decor, recommended for a romantic evening. But that's not all! Chef Beatrice Segoni innovates with her menu combining traditional Tuscan dishes with vegetarian recipes. The presentation of the dishes is meticulous, precise and refined, such as risotto with pigeon, guinea fowl with mushrooms and its mint and lemongrass polenta or vegan dessert. As for wine, let Simone Loguercio, best sommelier of Tuscany 2018, guide you. A chic landmark to discover, in a quiet alleyway, a few steps from the San Lorenzo basilica.
