Trattoria Da Burde In Firenze

Quality food and quick, friendly service. We had the truffle pici and wild boar ragù, and both were delicious. The atmosphere was informal and quaint.

When I think of “dinner in Firenze”, I will always envision the paposo, the pasta, the bistecca alla florentine, and the Tuscan wine from Da Burde. I am convinced you cannot spell “Perfection” without “Da Burde.” The restaurant is unassuming and filled with the charm of a Tuscan grandmother’s home cooking. Our server, Yassin, took excellent care of us the whole time. We left with full bellies and smiles that felt painted on our faces. 10/10 must visit if you are ever in Florence.

I'm taking advantage of an emergency at my parents' house in Sesto Fiorentino to console myself at Da Burde, after having wanted to come here all my life. And the great thing is… I didn't just lick my wounds from the "household trouble," I also licked my mustache! I'd like to divide this review into two parts: one about the food itself, the other about the wine. The food: Tuscan, traditional, unfussy, tasty, flavorful, good, and generous, as it should be. Period. If you're looking for something else, go elsewhere. If you're looking for a bold reinterpretation or a signature interpretation, this is not your place. This is a place of small differences: flavorful food, excellent cured meats, chicken liver crostini on toast and a glass of Vin Santo to accompany it… Attention, attention to detail, nothing seemed rushed, just to put something on the plate. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and caring. Honestly, I could go on and on and on, and I'd still write the same things. The wines: as soon as I sit down, I see a slip of paper with the dishes on the menu and the recommended wine pairing. Nice, but... I honestly came for something else! I ask a very nice waitress, who doesn't even let me finish speaking and says, "I understand, I'll send Marco over. He'll take care of it!" Marco arrives clutching countless bottles of Chianti and a map of Chianti Classico. He sets everything down on the table and asks me if we're in a hurry. No, for goodness sake, no hurry. "Good, because I'm usually a bit long-winded." And he begins to tell me. I feel like I've never understood Chianti in my entire life, because Marco makes you experience every bottle, he talks about it as if it were an old friend, he places it in a specific area, he finds references, he builds bonds and relationships. He talks about producers and winemakers like family friends, knows them all, calls them by their first names. I could listen to him all evening, spellbound. Meanwhile, the very kind waitresses change our chicken liver crostini, which I hadn't even touched: "We'll bring you a fresh one as soon as Marco finishes... if he finishes before closing time!" What can I say? I don't know. For me, it was an experience. I've never found such attention and depth in his explanations of wine anywhere else. I repeat: I could have listened to him for hours. Da Burde is this place. If you get the right moment, it becomes a magical island. An island-that-is-not-there, but fortunately, it is. I wanted to go back the next day, but we had to leave earlier than expected... Too bad. But we'll be back.

A typical trattoria where you eat divinely and spend a fair amount... We had the tripe, the lampredotto, the ribollita meatballs, and the steak topped with grilled porcini mushroom heads... everything was a real treat, including the desserts, especially the zuppa inglese, which is illegal. We really appreciated Sebastiano's advice on which dishes to choose... he really knows his job. He doesn't let indecision intimidate him and ensures that all his customers leave feeling satisfied and pampered... my rating is 100 This is one of those places where you know you'll travel a long way to return ❤️

Florentine history at the table. This is Da Burde, 125 years of service don't come by chance. The menu features the great classics: lampredotto, pappa al pomodoro, panzanella, tripe salad, pici pasta, fried steak, chicken liver crostini, vin santo, and mouth-watering desserts. Da Burde is a feast for the taste buds. Florence is also history at the table, where everything is an incredible experience.

The food was incredibly good, with generous portions and extremely friendly, almost instant service. The only small flaw was that the menu didn't have vegetarian options for the main courses (there were vegetarian options for the first courses and soups), but the soup section did include some very popular protein options.

Good food and excellent service

Almost 5 stars. Quality cuisine, an excellent wine list, and a steak that alone is worth the visit. Professional, attentive, and always friendly service. The ambiance is meticulously maintained. A place to keep in your diary and a place you'll happily return to.

Exceptional Florentine steak! Delicious potatoes. Fast and attentive service. The zuppa inglese was also delicious. Fair price.

Traditional Tuscan dishes, beautifully cooked. It's like eating at grandma's house. The desserts are exceptional, all homemade.
