We started with a monumental platter of cured meats, cheeses, and crostini (from chicken livers to mushrooms), accompanied by an excellent house red. Following this, we had exceptional traditional first courses: flavorful ribollita and tagliatelle with a rich, slow-cooked ragù. The highlight, however, was the Fiorentina steak: masterfully cooked rare, the meat tender and flavorful, and served on a hot griddle. A welcoming atmosphere, friendly service, and a very fair price. Five-star, we'll definitely be back!

It's a shame there wasn't an outdoor area, but it was still a lovely evening in a beautiful setting. Thank you!
