Whether taking small groups of adults on a tour of Italy or traveling on my own, I find these places among the best places to eat in Florence.
Trattoria al Trebbio: Nice bright atmosphere in a relaxed but sophisticated setting, I like the ceramics on the walls, the country tables and chairs. For me the Tuscan vegetables hit the spot and it is the best place to get a Florentine steak at a reasonable price. http://www.casatrattoria.com/restaurant/trattoria-al-trebbio/
Il Latini: Food, food, then they serve more food. We have been there for group dinners where they served 23, that right twenty-three courses. It's about 45 euros to sit down for this extravaganza but a lot of fun especially if dining with a group. http://www.illatini.com/
Trattoria Za Za: Located near the Mercado Centrale, so the ingredients are fresh. Tasty Tuscan food, I especially enjoy the appetizers and the pastas. My pick for dining al fresco. http://www.trattoriazaza.it/
These are just three of my picks for the best places to eat in Florence Italy. I have several more spots that you want to try. If you have some of your favorites, just list them in the comments section.
