Need to know some reasonable restaurants in Florence and Tuscany area?

Question

Need to know some reasonable restaurants in Florence and Tuscany area?

Answer 1

The square outside of Uffizi has some good restaurants that aren't expensive.  Several have tourists menus.  The cost actually depends on what you order.  Most restaurants have a range of costs.  

I also recommend finding a side street with a little pizza shop.  The pizza is incredible and not like it is in the US.

Answer 2

how reasonable do they need to be and what cuisine?

Central Market has some cheap places.

Answer 4

♦Nerbone serves great panino con bollito (boiled beef sandwich). Stall #292, 1st Floor, Mercato Centrale (Central Market), entrance on Via dell'Ariento. Perini's Deli can burst your picinic basket, but not your wallet. They sell everything from prosciutto Toscana, cheese, wild boar meat sauce, marinated olives, sundried tomatoes, and whatever antipasti you can think of. They can vacuum-pack for you. They're also generous with their free samples.

Places to Eat:

♦Antico Noè

(Budget)

Santa Croce

Sandwich Legend

Volta di San Piero 6r 50122

Tel: [phone] (info)

It isn't pretty in this arcade but if you want to choose from almost 20 delicious, heaped and filling takeaway sandwiches from this Florentine institution, you'll have to run the gauntlet of the hobos. There's also reasonable food at the comfy cafe next door, where you can enjoy slow jazz and blues tunes with your meal.

Hours: Mon-Sat 12:30pm-3:00pm & 7:00pm-11:00pm

♦Caffè Coquinarius

(Mid Range)

Medieval Centre

Wine-Soaked

Via dell' Oche 15/r

Tel: [phone] (info)

An excellent choice outside rigid meal times, this laid-back and comfy cafe, housed in a former stables, has light and substantial dishes of crostini, salads, pastas and the usual meaty mains as well as more than a dozen wines by the glass.

Hours: 9:00am-11:30pm

♦Giubbe Rosse

(Budget)

Duomo

Classic Coffee

Piazza della Repubblica 13-14/r

Tel: [phone] (info)

This venerable cafe (an early 20th-century hangout of Florentine futurists) takes its name from the 'red jackets' still worn by some of the waiters. There's outdoor seating and an atmospheric chandelier-lit interior lined with old photos and sketches. Ideal for a coffee despite the sometimes snippy staff.

Hours: 6:30am-2:00am

♦Il Vegetariano

(Mid Range)

San Marco

Go Vego

Via delle Ruote 30/r

Tel: [phone] (info)

One of the few restaurants to seriously cater to vegetarians, this is an unassuming locale with a great selection of fresh food, salads and mains. The menu changes regularly, partly dictated by the availability of fresh produce. Try the gazpacho (a cool Spanish, tomato broth) or risotto integrale con radicchio rosso (whole rice risotto with red lettuce).

Hours: Mon-Fri 12:30pm-2:30pm & 7:30pm-10:30pm, Sat-Sun 7:30pm-10:30pm

♦Sostanza

(Mid Range)

Santa Maria Novella

Hands Off

Via del Porcellana 25r

Tel: [phone] (info)

This traditional Tuscan eatery is a good spot for bistecca alla fiorentina and The minestrone if you are not fussy about your surrounds. A no-nonsense approach dominates.

Locals know the place as Il Troia - the (Male) **** - because they say its 19th-century owner had the habit of touching up his guests. Don't worry, he's long gone.

Hours: Mon-Sat 12:30pm-2:00pm amp; 7:30pm-9:30pm

♦Vini E Vecchi Sapori

(Budget)

Santa Croce

Rustic Sensation

Via dei Magazzini 3/r

Tel: [phone] (info)

This is an atmospheric cubbyhole where the charmingly miserable owner gives the impression that the background opera is the soundtrack to his life. The bar is laden with delicious antipasto, and the menu full of Tuscan specialities such as the sensational fagiolotti with pear and pecorino. Communal wine flows freely between tables.

Hours: Tue-Sat 12:30pm-2:30pm & 7:30pm-10:00pm; Sun 12:30pm-2:00pm
