In Florence, try Il Santo Bevitore (I believe it is on the street of the same name)

my 3 favourite dining experiences in Florence. Il Santo Bevitore, just over the river, is a lovely atmospheric room serving great traditional food with a contemporary slant, an interesting wine list, sophisticated and hip without...

Maps. There’s Il Foro in Porto Santo Stefano, Porto Ercole has Il Gambero Rosso and another place I have forgotten right now...Capalbio has a few good places as well. I will call my Dad and get some more details for you.

Just about my favorite restaurant in all of Italy is Il Ritrovo as Via de' Pucci 4/A. Rosetta, the most beautiful woman in Florence will greet you and her husband Rocco steers the kitchen. I’ve never had a reservation. Good...

la giostra, aqua al due, il latini-all delicious and fun!!

Please look up comments concerning Il Ritrovo on this baard. My favorite restaurant in all of Italy.

Went to Florence with a veggie. We loved Il Latinti. Also try Cantinetta Antinori and Cafe Verrazzano- both excellent wine bars in Florence. We also liked Trattoria Antellesi and for pizza try Il Pizzaiuolo. He was able to eat at...
