My husband and I took our adult children, and our evening at Trattoria Bordino was so memorable. Wonderful food, wonderful atmosphere, terrific people. They even had fun teaching us how to use our limited Italian in better ways. We had a blast there.

Trattoria Bordino

The quieter Oltrarno section of Florence hosts a number of trattorias on its side streets, filled with hanging flowers and plants, that offer Florence’s more local tastes. At Trattoria Bordino, start with the thinly sliced salmon draped on a bed of lettuce with buttered crostoni. A great primo is the risotto ai funghi porcini (rice seeped in a tomato sauce with porcini mushrooms) or the taglierini ai asparagi (pasta with asparagus). Bright yellow umbrellas and a lively wait staff keep this trattoria inviting and fun. The rustic Tuscan bread is not to be missed.
