"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."

"Family-run Osteria di Giovanni is a standout in this category and therefore always buzzing...meat is a specialty, both traditional and modern interpretations like faraona all’arancia"
