The most creative dish we had was the Codfish Cappuccino, a codfish mousse topped with potato foam, served in a cappuccino cup with a croissant on the side. It was made to look like breakfast but was a savory seafood appetizer! One nice feature about the menu here was that many dishes could be ordered in a "Tapas" (half) portion, so it was easy to try and share lots of different items. The Catalan-style Calamari and Shrimp Salad was a refreshing mixture of chopped squid mixed with zucchini, carrots, fennel, tomatoes, and oranges; the Fusili with Galician-style Octopus Sauce came with al dente corkscrew pasta in a tomato-based octopus ragout made with spicy salami and topped with potato foam; and the Cacciucco was a tomato-based stew (from the Tuscan coastal city of Livorno) made with octopus, cuttlefish, mussels, and gurnard, along with dry chunks of bread that were moistened in the stew. Finally, we had the Isolana-Style Sea Bream Fillet, which was simply grilled and served over roasted vegetables including zucchini, potatoes, peppers, onions, and olives. Overall, the seafood here was fresh and tasty, fusing elements of Spanish and Italian cuisines.

A single building in the hills of Mugello, an hour outside of Florence, Antica Osteria di Nandone…read morehas been serving guests since 1909. A destination not only as a result of its location at the top of unlit and winding roads, but also due to the Restaurant's inclusion on the "World's 101 Best Steak Restaurants," it is inside the converted home that fourth generation owner Paolo Mugnai carefully cooks Bistecca alla Fiorentina plus antipasti and sides served family-style amidst rustic confines. A historic eatery on the road that goes from Scarperia to the Giogo Pass, not something one simply happens upon, it is for just €45 that dishes arrive as ready along with house Wine and the sort of service one might expect when dining at a good friend's house. Utilizing only local ingredients, particularly adult Cows from nearby farms, T-Bones arrive well marbled with a crust of Salt and Pepper cooked over smoldering embers and a generous ring of fat that attests to a month or more of dry-aging.

Fun, contemporary decor. Excellent fish tartar. Interesting wine. Replacement pasta dish, ok…read more Went with group of eight on Wed. night - business was slow, so a smaller party could easily have walked in without reservation. Attentive service, which matched the upscale prices. Used to be impossible to get good fish in Florence, but Pane e Olio demonstrates that the era of frozen, whiffy seafood is past. The meal opened with a substantially-portioned amuse-bouche that was a kind of seafood version of the local standard "ribollita" (Tuscan bread, white-bean, and black cabbage soup). Had fish tartar as antipasto, which was delightful; the only slight disappointment was my pasta. The kitchen ran out of the dish listed, and offered an off-menu replacement. Didn't catch exactly what it was (another fish); it was fine, but not spectacular - more four-stars than five. However, on the whole, Pane e Olio was a wonderful experience; the atmosphere and presentation feel current when compared with the multitude of Tuscan/Traditional trattorie that vie for tourist attention in Florence. Would happily go back if looking for a special occasion restaurant.

There is seating inside for maybe a dozen people but we chose to sit at one of the 3 small tables outside to enjoy the nice weather. Draft beer was $6 euro and the mixed drinks varied from $8-12 euro. We met Alycia who is one of the owners. She was very pleasant and friendly. We stopped for a drink and stayed for 3 hours. We also stopped for a 2nd happy hour on our last day in Florence. Worth checking out if you happen to be in town and want a quieter spot. We loved it.

The owner and staff were fantastic, very knowledgeable and provided great recommendations. The wine bar itself is a small quaint little place. Probably seats about 12 to 15 people total and has plenty of windows so you can see passersby and people watch. The cheeseboard? Get the cheeseboard. They do a fantastic job of pairing everything together to really bring so many flavors to your tastebuds. Their house wine is phenomenal and they take great pride in finding the grapes/different varietals to make it come to life. They have a both a red and a white house wine option. The second time we went - and yes, we went more than once in the four days we were there - we enjoyed one of the sandwiches and it was absolutely amazing. The bread, I can't even explain, the bread it's so flavorful and so good and so light. That paired with the delicious meats and cheeses were 100% worth it. I definitely recommend this location to anybody who is visiting Florence regularly or for their first time.
