RISTORANTE BISTECCHERIA IL FIORENTINO In Città di castello

02/03/2025: I went there with my family on the recommendation of a friend. Everything is delicious, from starters to dessert, and everything is strictly homemade. Friendly and helpful staff. I will return with pleasure. Thanks to all the staff for the welcome, the service and the excellent quality of the raw materials!

01/03/2025: I was waiting for Google to prompt me to write the review on that one: IT IS A BOMB!!! 😍😍😍😍 We have been going to this amazing place since before it went through the recent refurbishment, which did not take away even a pinch of its previous charm but added kilos of class and sophistication, still leaving it though the most friendly and comfortable place to be. Let me tell you about the waiters first and their spoken menu; I listen to them like I was 6 years old listening to my parents reading me a fairytale. The staff is so skilled and so well trained, you start feeling enchanted the moment they open their mouth to recite the menu, and you’re salivating profusely by the time they finish. I adore the experience. And they are fluent in many languages so you can have your fairytale recited in the language you’re comfortable with. You sit by the glorious 200 years old open, stone fireplace and the smells from the kitchen creates a background to the waiter’s tales. But then there’s food…. I have had a privilege to work in high end hospitality in London for over 15 years and eat in the most fabulous places, Michelin rated or just simply good. But I tell you; a better thing than slow over night roasted pork belly here I have never eaten A NY WHERE. I dream about it, how it melts and falls apart, complimented by the silkiest mashed potatoes ever. All food is sourced locally, so is the delicious wine, and as an addition, in the summer, you eat at the terrace surrounded not only by breathtaking views but by chickens and peacocks who come to say hello. I love this place dearly and I wish them every success :) oh, and I don’t have pictures from there as I’m so preoccupied with food I forget about my phone!!!
