Food & Drink
Buca dell'Orafo
A hidden gem just steps from Ponte Vecchio (only 10 tables in the entire cellar-turned-restaurant). The tortellini alone will have us returning every time we visit Florence. If you’re looking to taste authentic Florentine food in an intimate atmosphere, I wouldn't pass this one up!
Ristorante Mastro Ciliegia
This family-run restaurant and pizzeria was an awesome recommendation from our Airbnb host... The gnocchi and pizza are a must! A perfect spot for a casual lunch or dinner in San Pierino, a popular neighborhood with a lively night scene.
Trattoria Marione
This place is exactly what you picture when you think of a traditional, family-style Italian meal—loud atmosphere, big portions, delicious food and great prices. We got there right when they opened; by the time we sat down, there was a line down the street. Definitely a hot spot!
Ristorante La Giostra
Johnny and Kelly's favorite dinner spot in Florence. It was unfortunately fully booked during our recent visit, so make your reservations early!
Gelateria Della Passera
Best Gelato in town. Just go. Caroline's Flavor: Lavender Matthew's Flavor: Pistachio
