Atmosphere

A ROMANTIC AND WELCOMING ATMOSPHERE JUST A FEW STEPS FROM THE DUOMO


A romantic and welcoming atmosphere just a few steps from the Duomo The Paiolo is located on Via del Corso, one of the most charming streets in the centre of Florence. Its welcoming, intimate and candlelit ambience offers the perfect setting for a romantic evening whilst savouring authentic Tuscan cuisine. 

 

Our Steak, the ‘Bistecca alla Fiorentina’

“The Florentine steak (called Bistecca alla Fiorentina or simply La Bistecca) is a serious matter in Florence, no jokes with the Ciccia (meat in Florentine slang)! The Tuscan cuisine has plenty of delicious dishes, but if you must choose only one of them, as your last meal, opt for La Bistecca!”

 ‘Bistecca alla Fiorentina’ is undoubtedly one of the pillars of  Florentine culinary traditions and today is almost a trademark of the city. Thickly cut, on the bone and cooked on live charcoal, it is served rare with its traditional accompaniment of cannellini beans topped with extra virgin olive oil or alternatively roast potatoes or a freshly prepared green salad.
