1. La Giostra

Service with a flourish from a bona fide Medici prince and his progeny.
2. II Latini

Prosciutto hanging from the rafters and communal seating. All you can eat (and drink) of Tuscan stand-bys.
3. Cibrèo

Top restaurant, favoured by intellectuals. The annexe serves a limited menu from the same kitchen at less than half the price.
4. Cantinetta Antinori

Wine bar/restaurant in a 15th-century palazzo. The Antinori family has been making Chianti for generations, and the produce comes from their farms.
5. Casa di Dante (del Pennello)

Going since at least the 1500s, and famous for its antipasto table laden with vegetables, fish and meat.
6. Caffè Bigallo Enoteca

Cosy establishment serving typical Tuscan dishes. Good value set menus.
7. II Cantinone

Crostini (grilled bread topped like a pizza) and more substantial dishes at long wooden tables.
8. Alla Vecchia Bettola

Where Florentines go to enjoy old-fashioned dishes – some not for the weak of stomach, such as testicciole (rice stew in a halved sheep’s skull).
9. II Pizzaiuolo

Crowded pizza parlour also serving tasty Neapolitan pasta dishes. Expect a wait even with reservations.
10. Acqua al Due

Beloved restaurant with padded benches, soft lighting and assaggi (tasting) dishes allowing you to sample each course.
