Brilliant Food, Great Wines
Offering good value for money alongside a creative riff on Tuscan and Italian classics, Santo Bevitore continues to be one of Florence’s hottest restaurants. The slow food ethic of locally sourced, seasonal ingredients is evident in a menu that meanders between meat and fish dishes—think fresh pea soup topped with sautéed octopus, and spiced beef cheek with porcini mushrooms—and also includes a great selection of cheeses and cold cuts. There’s a good wine list too.
