Basically, they raised some chickens neck-deep in butter feeding them only butter. Then they drowned them in butter and cooked them in a lot of butter and served them in some butter. Amazing.
The artichoke pie is great, the chicken fried in butter is a revelation, the meringue and strawberry cake is so good. Friendly staff , too! Reasonable prices for quality. Food is rich and delicious. ❤️
Open since 1869. Specialties include petti di pollo al burro (chicken breasts fried in butter) and bistecca alla Florentina (porterhouse steak cooked on a charcoal grill ).
make sure to get the artichoke pie , butter chicken & florentine steak ! don't forget to take a visit to the bathroom and get a sneak peak at the kitchen - chefs are super friendly !
Reservations are a must. Communal tables so you'll meet some new friends. Order the artichoke pie , butter chicken , steak , and leave room for the meringue pie.
Go for the butter chicken . It's delicious. And the Florentine steak . You can't go wrong with the house wine . Reservations are usually necessary. Very friendly service .
The tortellini meat sauce is amongst the best I’ve had. Also loved the butter chicken . And excellent mushrooms .
Butter chicken is out of this world! Incredible flavor and texture. Don’t forget to have the meringue cake for dessert
Butter chicken and artichoke pie are a MUST skip the pasta and make sure you get enough chicken for everyone!
An amazing traditional restaurant . Make a reservation and hope to be seated sharing a table with others. Don't miss the artichoke omelet -- it's an odd pairing with florentine steak , but amazing!
The most memorable steak dinner I've ever had (8 years ago and still thinking about it)
Butter chicken and rare T-bone steak are must-haves. Super flavorful and tender. Pair them with a pitcher of house Chianti .
Butter Chicken and Bistecca!!! This place is a gem. Such a fun way to enjoy food. Loved sitting with random people and enjoying great food.
Desserts and soups are special, steak needs a bit more aging as it is still served with blood but still tasty and with no nerves. Service is extra ordinary
You have to order the cake . Best cake I ever had. Worth that 12 euro. Every damn penny of it
Be adventurous and get the tripe (trippa). As others have said, the artichoke torta and butter chicken (pollo al burro ) are delicious.
the butter chicken will change your life. this place hasn't changed a lick since the 1800's...and that's a very good thing.

This is the place for beefsteak in Florence. Don't wimp out and order a little one. Share it, get it big and get it bloody.

Butter chicken !
far from cheap
Highly overpriced tourists trap. The famous better chicken is just small portion for 19 euro??? A joke
Locale storico immutato nel tempo !si viene esclusivamente per il cibo tipicamente toscano . Casual e informale (tavoli in condivisione) ottimo servizio e rapporto qualità prezzo. Obbligo prenotazione
Since1869. Sembra di entrare nella macchina del tempo . Qui dentro c’è l’atmosfera di una volta. Cordialità famigliare è naturale. Ipiatti tutti ottimi ! Torta di carciofi è il MUST !
Только по предварительной записи, лучше за несколько дней, т.к. внутри только 6 столиков . Лучшее место
El pollo a la mantequilla y el bistecca a la Fiorentina espectaculares
Bir tavsiye üzerine gittim bizdeki esnaf lokantası ambiansında, yaşlı garson fros çok tatlı ...et yemedim helal olmadığından ama makarnası , ıspanağı ve enginarlı omleti başarılı!
