Perseus
Perseus is guaranteed to please a variety of tastes with an excellent selection of all the quintessential Tuscan appetizers, hearty bean soups, salads, pizzas, wine, home-made desserts and their specialty, marvelous grilled meats. Included in this area is of course the bistecca fiorentina, which you must be prepared to eat 'al sangue', rare, as the integrity of the chef won't permit it to be consumed any other way.

Although this bustling and unpretentious restaurant is all about the food, the energetic staff and traditional surroundings add to the culinary experience. Don't forget to reserve!
