Great atmosphere, service and food. A tiny little restaurant perched above Florence is well worth a visit if in Settignano.

About the restaurant

a causa delle piccole dimensioni della cucina abbiamo scelto di proporre un menù ristretto, dieci antipasti, quattro primi piatti, sei secondi piatti e 6 dessert, che cambiamo ogni due settimane; utilizziamo materie prime stagionali di qualità.

la nostra passione ci permette di proporre sempre piatti fantasiosi e ricercati, partendo però da una base di tradizione...

tra i nostri punti di forza sicuramente la selezione di vini, oltre le duecento etichette, di cui 12/15 sempre al bicchiere e una vasta gamma di birre artigianali italiane...

nato alla fine dell' ottocento, dal pittore "Desiderio da Settignano", come sala da the, caffe e mostra delle sue opere, adesso è diventato un piccolo Winebar, Bistrot, Enoteca, in tipico stile Fiorentino, curato nel particolare, dove poter degustare o acquistare i prodotti, anche in confezioni regalo, magistralmente selezionati da Francesca e Michele, Sommelier AIS; formaggi locali e non, salumi dei migliori, selezionati da vari artigiani che ancora oggi lavorano come una volta, alla ricerca dell' antico sapore; birre, rigorosamente "Artigianali" delle più imprtanti aziende italiane, vini, anche da agricoltura "Biologica, Biodinamica o Naturale" e perchè nò distillati, dei migliori, cocktail, fatti a regola d' arte, aceti, sali, confetture e conserve e chi più ne ha più ne metta!!!
