Osteria Cipolla Rossa
Osteria Cipolla Rossa is a small restaurant in central Florence offering traditional Tuscan dishes. The rustic dining room with simple decor can seat over 60 people and opens daily for lunch and dinner service.
The space was originally a small wine cellar before being converted into a dining room. This past use explains the slightly rustic character that guests find appealing.
The restaurant's name references the red onion, a symbol of Tuscan cooking. The walls display photographs and local imagery that reflect how deeply the kitchen is connected to regional farming traditions and seasonal eating.
As a smaller venue, reservations are recommended especially during peak tourist season. Online bookings and phone calls are accepted, and staff are happy to help ensure a smooth visit.
A signature dish called Tagliatelle del Saracino made from buckwheat pasta with mint pesto, capers, chives, and almonds is a house creation. This unusual combination delivers rich flavor layers that make it a favorite with many guests.
