Gurdulù

Top choice in Oltrarno


Gourmet Gurdulù seduces fashionable Florentines with razor-sharp interior design, magnificent craft cocktails and seasonal market cuisine from young local chef Gabriele Andreoni. A hybrid drink-dine, this address is as much about noshing gourmet aperitivi (predinner drinks) snacks over expertly mixed cocktails (€12) or an expertly curated Tuscan wine flight (€25 for four wines) as it is about dining exceedingly well.

In warm weather, knowing epicureans cool off over drinks in the shaded courtyard garden. Gurdulù, should you be wondering, was a fictitious squire in Italo Calvino's allegorical novel, The Nonexistent Knight (1959).
