| Last reviewed: Jun 2026 Opened in 1953 and run by the Colzi family for three generations, this lunch-only canteen behind the Mercato Centrale serves market-fresh Tuscan cooking at shared tables: bollito, ribollita and a celebrated bistecca. Cash, no reservations, queue and share. A genuine working-Florence institution.
