I' Brindellone In Firenze

15/11/2025: The experience was good, but nothing special considering the expectations and the price: The wine was reasonably priced and there was some variety. The peposo was very good, but the portion was quite small for the €22 it costed. The fiorentina (we choose the high-quality “grass-fed” option at €70/kg) wasn’t worth the price. First of all, it lacked marbling. We’ve tried others in the area that were slightly cheaper but had better marbling and flavor. Also, although they do warn that it’s served rare, there were cold pieces, which goes beyond how the dish should be presented. And worst of all, they brought it to the table already sliced, which, in our opinion, is not appropriate for a cut of meat we paid €85 for. In fact—and this is purely our perception—it seemed small for the 1,250 g they claimed it weighed. The accompanying bread wasn’t good, at least not for an establishment of this level. The tiramisu was quite good, but again, the portion was really small for the €8 price. In summary, although the overall quality wasn’t bad, we wouldn’t return. What’s offered clearly doesn’t justify the price. The most striking thing is that they bring the fiorentina to the table already cut, which is hardly appropriate for such an iconic and expensive dish.
