RISTORANTE LORENZO DE’ MEDICI

* A HISTORIC VENUE IN THE HEART OF FLORENCE

Our restaurant combines historic charm with elegant, classic-style interiors and spacious, air-conditioned dining rooms accommodating up to 280 guests. Our versatile spaces are ideal for tour groups, families, weddings, graduation parties, private events, aperitifs, receptions, and corporate dinners, with the option to reserve private dining rooms and arrange personalized services for special occasions.

Our central location is perfect for exploring Florence. We are steps away from the Medici Chapels, Basilica of San Lorenzo, Florence Cathedral, the Accademia Gallery, Piazza della Signoria, and the Uffizi Gallery. An ideal stop for lunch or dinner during sightseeing itineraries, allowing tour groups to spend less time traveling between attractions and more time enjoying Florence.

* TUSCAN CUISINE AND WOOD-FIRED PIZZA

Our menu celebrates Tuscan and Florentine culinary traditions through regional specialties, iconic dishes, and carefully selected ingredients. In our wood-fired pizzeria, we prepare pizzas using premium flours and naturally leavened dough rested for 48 hours.

* AN INCLUSIVE MENU FOR EVERY DIETARY NEED

As longtime members of the Italian Celiac Association (AIC), we are a trusted destination for gluten-free dining in Florence. Our entire menu is also available gluten-free, with strict procedures to prevent cross-contact. We also offer lactose-free, vegetarian, vegan, and pescatarian options, as well as halal meat, so everyone can enjoy authentic Tuscan flavors.

* LA PIAZZETTA DI LORENZO: OUR TRENDY SIDE

Alongside our classic dining rooms, La Piazzetta di Lorenzo offers a fresh, relaxed atmosphere: a lively Italian-style piazza especially popular with younger guests and anyone seeking a more casual dining experience.

* INTERNATIONAL AWARDS AND RECOGNITION

Our food and hospitality have earned international recognition, including the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards – Best of the Best and the 70 Best Restaurants with Pizzeria in the World award.

* COOKING CLASSES: EXPERIENCE TUSCANY

Our fresh pasta and pizza cooking classes offer an authentic, fun, hands-on experience for couples, families, friends, and small groups, as well as special celebrations. Guests prepare their own dishes and discover authentic Tuscan flavors. Chef Lorenzo Carotti, who speaks Italian, English, and Spanish, guides guests step by step through traditional recipes in a friendly, welcoming setting.

Classes are also available entirely gluten-free. We are among the first establishments in Tuscany to welcome guests with celiac disease to these experiences, taking special care to prevent cross-contact.
