Fiorentino backs up its plum position near the Presidential Palace with delicious Italian food, professional service and a convivial atmosphere. Its 'Renaissance-style' courtyard is a great place, in the warmer months, to kick back over Tuscan dishes such as tagliata (rare sliced beef with parmesan and rocket) or ham and fontina stuffed pasta in sage butter.
