Ristorante Belcore In Firenze

Exceptional dinner, excellent food, always served with a big smile... a rare kindness! Quiet place, slightly out of the way, already marked for when we pass through that area again.

If you're looking for a proper dinner in Florence, I highly recommend Ristorante Belcore. I visited while looking for a restaurant near my hotel, and I was completely satisfied with the overall ambiance, service, and quality of the food. Upon opening the door, the first thing I noticed was the soft lighting, classical music, and artwork on the walls. Since reservations are the norm, the dining room is quiet and relaxed, and the staff are friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. It's formal yet comfortable, perfectly embodying the feeling of a "proper dinner in Florence." We started our meal with the Caprese. Fresh mozzarella, ripe tomatoes, and basil, lightly drizzled with olive oil, it was a classic dish that brought out the full flavors of the ingredients. The tomato and basil pasta (Pasta al Pomodoro e Basilico) followed, combining al dente noodles with a fresh tomato sauce for a refreshing, yet not overpowering, flavor. The main course, Risotto ai Gamberi, was a creamy blend of buttery smoothness and shrimp flavor. With every bite, the rich, seafood aromas wafted through, perfectly complementing the Florentine evening atmosphere. The highlight of this restaurant is undoubtedly the T-bone steak, the Bistecca alla Fiorentina. A thick, 2kg steak sizzles on a griddle, and the waiter slices it for you, explaining, "This is Florentine style." The outside is crispy, the inside is medium-rare, and the meat is seasoned with just salt and olive oil, preserving its natural flavor. It's the perfect portion for sharing. We paired it with a bottle of Tuscan red wine. The full-bodied texture and moderate tannins complemented the steak perfectly, allowing us to naturally slow down and unwind from the day's exertion. After dinner, the Florentine night had fully descended, and the Duomo dome loomed faintly through the quiet alleyways. Dinner at Ristorante Belcore wasn't just a simple meal; it was a refined ending to a day in Florence. If you're looking for a cozy dinner in Florence, especially a truly authentic Bistecca alla Fiorentina, this is a place worth visiting.

The atmosphere was great, and the food from the Light Menu was delicious. The waiter was especially friendly, and they provided complimentary pre-dinner wine and Fresecco, which was a nice touch.
