"The menu is creative Tuscan, so an excellent soup of chestnuts and porcini mushrooms might be followed by salt cod with leeks, tomatoes, and chickpeas, or an old standard like bistecca fiorentina."
Frommer's
"The Antinori marchesi started their wine empire 26 generations ago, and, taking their cue from an ancient vintner tradition, installed a wine bar in their 15th-century palazzo 30 years ago."

"You've got to eat in La Giostra, north of Santa Croce, at least once... Prince Dimitri and his two sons run an opulent ship, which sails along on rich flavors."

"The constantly changing menu has terrific vegetarian and vegan options, and any meal that does not include truffles is significantly less expensive than those that do."

"The restaurant, so named because the long, vaulted space once housed a carousel, is a perfectly straightforward restaurant owned and run by Prince Dimitri and Soldano d'Asburgo Lorena."

""Hospitable" twin son owners from a "noble family" generate a "warm and welcoming" vibe at this "memorable" Duomo Tuscan."
