A Florence institution since 1886. The ribollita, the bistecca alla Fiorentina, and the pappardelle al cinghiale are prepared as they have been for over a century. The most historically resonant traditional dinner in Tuscany.
Why It Belongs on the List
Buca Mario is a polished, traditional trattoria offering a slightly more refined take on Florentine classics. Set in a vaulted cellar dining room, it’s known for its bistecca alla Fiorentina and dependable, high-quality Tuscan cooking in the heart of the city.
