Purple Lion's Restaurant In Firenze

30/12/2024: Perfectly located in Piazza della Signora, this elegant and cozy restaurant offers typical food from Toscana. Nice and professional staff. Good prices. We had two “bistecca nella costola” that were delicious, tender meat perfectly cooked.

12/08/2024: This restaurant is in one of the most competitive areas of Florence so has to be sensational to survive and it is. We ate outside to enjoy the atmosphere but the interior is absolutely breathtaking the highlight being a 300+ year old well that still holds water. This is the third time in a six week European holiday I’ve eaten twice at a restaurant because it’s so good. My wife and I both had pizzas both times as they were so good, the best I’ve eaten. The service is excellent. Our waiter on our second visit remembered us from the day before. This restaurant doesn’t have compulsory tipping so you can’t just leave a small token of gratitude if you wish. In a city with hundreds of quality restaurants this is a standout.
