Restaurants in Florence:_”Lungarno 23″ best hamburgers in town & café
May 1, 2010
This is a very nice place to eat, and you must not think about the standard “hamburger” McDonald’s style. Florentines love Lungarno 23 chianina hamburgers&café, which became one of their favourite places to eat in the city center. Two rooms, (one with very large windows overlooking the river) both not too large, so book in advance or go not too late, say not after 8.30pm.
Here the hamburgers are made with the special “chianina” meat of an excellent quality, organic, genuine and fresh, directly from the “Farmhouse La Fratta” located in the Chianti landscape.
The menu offers various hamburgers type, all of them always served with vegetables and chips, typical home-made hamburger bread, sauces. All of them served on a plate, not in the standard hamburger style. BUT: not hamburgers only! Roast-beef, tartare, good italian pasta and excellent soups with organic ingredients. Cheese and salami from best Tuscan producers. Seasonal generous salads. Don’t miss the cakes, we took the apple-pie with cream and cinnamom which was delicious!
You can have your wine by glass, or an entire bottle. Friendly service, the staff is very polite. Price range for dinner: 20,00/35,00 euros per person all inclusive.
Location: on the river, very romantic! Cross the Ponte Vecchio Old Bridge and take left. Go straight for 50-60 meters and you will find Lungarno23; it’s between Ponte Vecchio and Ponte alle Grazie bridges, about 20-30 min. walk from our bed and breakfast. My personal tip: a romantic walk on the Lungarni, watching the river and Florence by night, waiting for a peaceful night in your charming room at Mr My Resort Inn.
