| The Onice Lounge Restaurant at Relais & Chateaux Villa la Vedetta near Piazzale Michelangelo, only a short way away from the Ponte Vecchio, is a refined Gourmet restaurant offering an exclusive and sophisticated atmosphere. The Lounge bar is dominated by the honey-coloured onyx counter and surrounded by low curving divans and small leather-covered poufs. A wide arch leads into the restaurant dining room with its vaulted ceiling and two huge windows overlooking the garden and the pool. Small glass and crocodile-skin tables, padded chairs and divans, upholstered in silver grey and cherry red, welcome the guests. The uncontested protagonist is the restaurant’s creative Cuisine that has won the interest and the favour of authoritative gastronomic critics along with flattering reviews from some of the greatest masters of refined cooking.
Innovative yet traditional, the menu is daring, combining a clever interpretation of local recipes and exotic spices: the Chef skilfully blends techniques and flavours from different traditions and mixes together sweet and salt savours. Don’t miss the dishes like the variations and trilogies or Onice’s Classics, the evergreen specialties enhancing the Chef’s haute cuisine of Onice.
