You can truly fall in love with Florence because of a single steak.
I suddenly really craved lasagna, so I made a reservation with a friend at a restaurant with a high Google rating, only to discover that the steak is the main attraction! 🏠 Restaurant Name: La Grotta Toscana 📍 Address: Via dell'Oche, 16R, 50122 Firenze FI, Italy 🍝 Dishes: ♥︎ Bistecca Alla Fiorentina Con Patate (Steak) The signature steak comes in two types of meat, with a slight price difference. The more expensive one is a bit softer. The steak is huge, with a delicious layer of fat around the edges. My friend, who doesn't like rare meat, chose medium, but the staff recommended a bit rarer. The medium was a bit chewy, but the edges near the bone were very tender. ♥︎ Lasagna Al Forno (Lasagna, 13€) The meat sauce lasagna is a starter but still substantial. The cheese is stretchy and fragrant, and there's plenty of meat filling. Compared to the steak, it might be a bit lighter in flavor, but it's still amazing. I devoured it! ♥︎ Tiramisù (Tiramisu, 8€) A must-have dessert to cleanse the palate. The cold tiramisu is rich in flavor but not overly sweet, with a very delicate texture. 💰 Pricing: The steak comes in two types, priced at 46€ and 52€ per kilogram, with a minimum purchase of 1.2kg. There's also a single portion of 700g. We ordered the 52€/kg steak, and a single portion cost 49€. Lasagna: 13€ Tiramisu: 8€ Coke: 4.5€ (a small glass bottle) Water: 3.5€ (a large bottle) Average cost per person: around 40€ (depending on your choices). ❗ Tips: ♥︎ It's really popular, so it's best to book a table in advance. Walk-ins might not get a seat. ♥︎ Operating hours are from 12 PM to 3 PM and 7 PM to 12 AM. Don't miss out! ♥︎ The dining environment is great. For some reason, everyone was dressed quite formally. We were in T-shirts and shorts, feeling a bit out of place, haha. If you want to take photos, dress up a bit! #RestaurantExploration #Florence #FlorenceEats #FlorenceFoodAdventure #ItalianCuisine #FlorenceTboneSteak #FoodExploration
