Osteria dell'Enoteca

The 22 Best Restaurants In Florence - Florence - The Infatuation

"Florence suffers from over-tourism, so we can’t really deny (or blame) the fact that restaurants have notoriously grumpy restaurant service. But Osteria dell’Enoteca couldn’t be more different. They serve one of the best steaks in town, all while the staff smiles and cracks jokes when explaining where they source their charcuterie and how proud they are of the wine they carry. Even those who are skeptical of anything liver-related will fight over the buttery terrine with a Vinsanto reduction, and the ravioli with peposo is rich but balanced with hints of thyme. The star of the show is that thick-cut Florentine T-bone steak that’s a couple of fingers high and cooked over an open grill for a few minutes on each side. All they add is a little salt and the result is a juicy slab best washed down with an aged Chianti Classico to cut squarely through the fat. The Osteria is also located near the Boboli Gardens, which makes for a perfect after-dinner stroll." - coral sisk, georgette jupe
