Discover the flavors of Tuscany
Entering La Spada Restaurant means embarking on a journey through traditional flavors, amidst dishes that speak Tuscan and aromas that tell family stories. In our traditional Tuscan restaurant in Florence, every day we passionately prepare recipes rooted in peasant cuisine, carefully reinterpreted using fresh, seasonal ingredients.
Our cuisine is sincere, where simplicity doesn't mean banality, but rather a focus on raw ingredients and a respect for tradition. Ribollita, pappa al pomodoro, pici, farro soup, tripe Florentine-style, peposo Imprunetana: each dish is a testament to our identity.
A tradition that is renewed every day
Our menu changes frequently to ensure a consistently fresh and varied menu, while never sacrificing the classics. In summer, you'll find lighter dishes like panzanella or veal in tuna sauce, while in winter, rediscover the intense flavors of our soups and stews.
Alongside traditional first courses, we offer grilled meats, roasts, and main courses that represent the heart of Tuscan cuisine. Each dish is prepared fresh, with artisanal care and a touch of creativity that makes even the simplest dishes unique.
The cellar: Tuscan wines and great Italian labels
To complement each dish, we offer a selection of wines designed to enhance your dining experience. The restaurant's crown jewel is our wine cellar: a spacious corridor dedicated to the finest Tuscan wines, with an assortment ranging from intense reds to crisp whites, and even premium Italian sparkling wines.
Our selection includes carefully selected DOCG and IGT wines, ideal for pairing with every dish, from pasta to dessert, including the classic Florentine steak. Our staff is always available to recommend the perfect glass for your menu, with a focus on flavor and conviviality.
A fine wine complements every tasting experience, making every lunch or dinner in our restaurant a moment of authentic pleasure, in an informal and light-hearted atmosphere, just as Tuscany truly is.
