While walking in the streets of Florence, we saw Trattoria Dall’Oste and decided to go there for dinner, after seeing their dry aged room from the outside of one of their restaurants. So here we were, having to wait outside for some time, although the restaurant was not that crowded as you can see on the photo below.

Their menu is a bit overwhelming with so many prix-fixe options that often included large pieces of meat (like 35 oz! and more). Considering all the food we had that day, I decided to go with a smaller piece, a ribeye of approx. 16 oz that came on a wooden board, giving a rustic presentation to the dish. I admit that I am not sure what the origin of the meat was as the menu was not that precise, despite that fact that it was not a Chianina breed. The meat was very good, cooked rare to medium-rare, juicy and tasty, with a nice char.

Jodi on her side got the Tagliolini al fungi that are thick noodles with mushrooms. I thought it was good, but she was not that thrilled about it.

Of course, I should not forget to mention the spritz I had as a cocktail (yes, I probably had a spritz at each and every meal).

So, overall it was good and prices were reasonable. I would go back to Trattoria Dall’Oste next time I visit Florence and then I will try their Chianina meat.

Enjoy (I did)!
