Trattoria Ruggero In Firenze

They took me there even though I lived in the area, I must say that I really like it! I dare say he cooks like he used to.

Homemade food, very good service and perfect treatment.

One of my favorites from Firenzi.

The Florentine trattoria par excellence. Fresh and seasonal preparations, great taste and impeccable service. A warranty!

Unsurpassed best quality/price ratio in the galaxy. Immense quality, good price. Daniele the Antognoni of catering :-)

What to say? All perfect. Whatever you get is top notch. You eat really well, you drink just as well and the bill is a pleasant surprise. Go without delay.

From 10 you just eat, that's all you need when the food is excellent

Original old fashion place in the best way! We were here twice not only because our apartment was nearby. Special reccomendation to take the "pigone" from menue.

Opened in 1980 by Ruggero Corsi, at the edge of Florence near Porta Romana, this tiny Trattoria is locally loved thanks to a focus on traditional Tuscan cuisine plus an extensive cellar of affordable Wines to match. Not an easy place to walk-in, the L-shaped footprint holding perhaps two dozen diners, guests instead confirm reservations made by phone before occupying wood seats, a pour of house Chianti soon to follow alongside three types of Bread in a basket. Wood-lined with white tablecloths, tables nearly touching, Trattoria Ruggero proposes a seasonal menu focused on history and season, a plate of Charcuterie plus chopped Liver Toast similar to others while a Salad of Chicories finds bitterness balanced by Anchovy Dressing. Predictably offering Tuscan T-Bones served bloody, a sizable cut for six at an adjacent table, those seeking something lighter should consider Tortellini served in clear Broth with depth or hand-cut Tagliatelle served simply amidst Aspargus and Butter. Tempted by another Steak, more affordable than most, it was on the recommendation of neighbors that spoon-tender Roast Pork instead arrived as Secondi with a side of Potatoes, the extra capacity saved for crumbly Cake and a caramelized Apple from the oven soaked in Syrup.

Ottima cena, accoglienza gentile, primi abbondanti e di gusto, abbiamo assaggiato i pici, i tortelli e i maccheroncini, arista ottima così come le polpette, anche i carciofi e le patate di contorno molto gustose. Vino della casa piacevole. Da tornare sicuramente.
