| Situated in the former church of San Piero Maggiore, which still shows traces of ancient capitals and decorations, in the quarter of Santa Croce, Restaurant Natalino has been one of the city’s best known restaurants for the last 130 years.
A popular meeting place for Florentine artists, Restaurant Natalino is famous throughout the world for its interpretation of the traditional local cooking, from the delicious starters to the classical Florentine first courses - ribollita or fresh pasta served with various sauces - or the grilled meats that include thick juicy steaks.
The menu and wine list offer a perfect food and wine experience, with simply prepared seasonal products cooked in the knowledge of ancient traditions. Tables are set up outside from April onwards making for pleasant lunches against a shaded and characteristic setting, or candlelit dining, far from the city traffic in one of the most picturesque corners of ancient Florence.
The quality of the cooking, the fascinating environs and welcoming family atmosphere trasform dining at Natalino’s into a voyage into the Italian way of life.
Natalino now doubles with the recently opened Wine Bar, ideal for lunchtime breaks, offering typical platters, tasty snacks and sandwiches and also selling bottles of excellent vintage wine.
