Symbol of tradition
History
The history of Ristorante Il Bargello spans centuries, preserving its original calling: to bring together the Florentine people around its tables.
Over the decades, the establishment has hosted various activities, but it was in the 1970s that Il Bargello was acquired by the renowned Rodolfo Turicchia. He preserved its ambiance and historical essence while infusing it with a fresh wave of modernity.
Today, more than 600 years later, Il Bargello has preserved its essence as a beloved gathering place for Florentines. It has also expanded its welcome, opening its doors to tourists from all over the world, inviting them to share in its rich history and vibrant community spirit.
Florentine tradition runs deep in our establishment, infusing every preparation and dish with the authentic flavors of our region. Il Bargello, now a family-run restaurant, stays true to its historical roots while incorporating a youthful and fresh approach to management.
We pride ourselves on honoring the time-honored culinary practices of our heritage, ensuring that each meal offers a genuine taste of Florence, all while embracing modernity to create a welcoming and vibrant dining experience.
BISTECCA
When talking about Florence, one must highlight the queen of the city’s tables: the Fiorentina!
The bistecca alla fiorentina at Ristorante il Bargello is more than just a dish—it’s a true culinary religion.
What makes this steak worthy of the city it represents are a few key elements: the cut of meat, the cooking process, and the seasoning.
Our secrets remain closely guarded because the magic of the Fiorentina steak isn’t something to be explained—it’s something to be savored!
