Hosteria del Bricco: Authentic Florentine Dining with Rustic Charm in Florence

Nice service. Delicious food. Good value for money. We had Tagliatelle alla saturnia, Braised beef in sangiovese(this one is REALLY good). And caramel panna cotta. All of them are delicious.

The BEST meal I’ve had in Italy. We had a friend find this place on TripAdvisor, and I cannot recommend this place enough. I ordered the Penne Al Coccio, and almost melted into my seat after one bite. If you are coming here, ORDER THIS!!!!! The pasta is perfectly al dente, with a generous helping of each topping (truffle, mushrooms, peas, bacon) and an amazing portion size. The flavor was out of this world, the second it hits your tongue, it is perfectly spiced, extremely flavorful, salty, I cannot stop thinking about it hours later. The best meal our group of 6 had, I shared almost a quarter of my plate because everyone could not get enough, and then cleaned the plate with a piece of bread because it was that good. Not too heavy, perfectly able to walk around in the hot sun afterwards. Another friend ordered the Coniquio Ripieno Al Forno, and said it was perfectly cooked, the rabbit moist and tender. We also had someone order the Gnocchi Alla Fornaia Con Basilico e Noci - the gnocchi was the perfect texture, soft, pillowy, chewy, and the pesto was incredible. The Tagliata ti Manzo Alla Maniera tel Bricco con Rucola e Cicciolo was also beautiful- perfectly salty, light, quality meat (served rare, we saw some other diners be surprised by the serving style of this dish, so look at pictures beforehand!) We ordered tiramisu, panna cotta, and a biscuit dish served with a dessert wine for dessert. The tiramisu was incredible, easily shared amongst 3 people. The panna cotta was the other star of this meal- the creamiest panna cotta all 6 of us had ever had. Sweet, creamy, delicious. Prices are incredibly reasonable, the service was incredible, with handwritten menus, wonderful servers, and a beautiful interior. The location is right by the water, we were able to exit and enjoy a beautiful sunset on the bridge. Will be coming back!

This restaurant is truly authentic, with rustic decor that perfectly matches the charm of Tuscany. The food was outstanding—definitely worth a visit. I appreciated that they don’t serve pizza, which I always take as a sign of fewer tourists and, consequently, excellent food, which it absolutely was. The waiter was very friendly, cheerful, and attentive. It was a wonderful evening! Thank you very much

If you got sold to eat across the river somewhere else you straight up blew it. This place was the absolute best dining experience you could possibly imagine. Small family run place with friendly people and phenomenal food with wine I can’t recommend enough. BELLISIMO!!

Situated at the quite end of San Niccolò neighborhood next to the 3000 euro a pair of custom made leather shoe Bremer, we wouldn’t have found it if not for our friendly concierge who told us about Bremer and this authentic Florentine restaurant he loves. Don’t expect your usual touristy Florentine T-bone steak but flavorful grandma recipes genuine Florentine food. The Chef/owner is a wine collector and probably also an art aficionado. It reflects on his dishes which has complex taste pairing of elements and yet down to earth and even a bit rustic. It’s a family run business with the sons waitering and running the front with gracious courtesy and friendly demeanor. Always so helpful with a smile, they speaks perfect English and makes you feel relax and at home enjoying not only the food, the unassuming ambience but also friendly small chats. There is a good mix of tourists and locals but it is obvious locals streamed in only after 8pm. When we left past 10pm (we were there since 7.30pm) they were getting really busy and there is a line of local customers out the door trying to get a table. Probably our best meal in Florence over the past four days and we would come back again if we weren’t leaving tomorrow. Do make a reservation if you are tired of the tourist food and wanted some authenticity that locals enjoy. Highly recommended.

This was our first meal in Florence and probably the best one, food was absolutely delicious, great service, lovely traditional atmosphere!

A Tuscan dream came through! A place so warm that you feel like you are in a Tuscan rustic home where a family is sharing their love and passion about food and wine. We entered this place with curiousity as we were staying right above it, and i really is a surprise hiden in a hall of a wall. The best surprise ever. The food is that amazing that we came back the next day to try something different. We have tried the red house wine, which was outstanding. What I can surely recommend is the plater of cold cuts with cheese if you are looking for appetizer, but from pasta I recommend the pasta with duck sauce and the pasta with mild garlic and tomatoes. For a perfect ending of a pleasant night, the warmest recommendations from us for the homemade chocolate tart with walnuts, which is out of this world, especially when you share the piece with your loved one! Kudos for you guys, we hope that we will have tha chance to come back again someday soon!

The food was fantastic. The server was pleasant. We did family style ordering and shared everything. The restaurant was ready for it and accommodating. If you’re near Piazzale Michelangelo then def check this place out.
