Dining
Dining in Florence has always been a convivial affair. At IL Tornabuoni, we are all about fine food and wine - always in good company. A visit to the Renaissance city wouldn’t be complete without experiencing magnificent cuisine, characterized by delicious seasonal ingredients and distinctly rich flavors. Nor would it be a true Italian experience without a complete list of huge Champaign and Super Tuscan wines, artisanal cocktails and of course, some bubbly. We invite you to savor it all amongst IL Tornabuoni’s five spectacular venues.
IL Magnifico Restaurant
Located on our ground floor, in an elegant and modern area with original ceilings and arch from the Palace Minerbetti, Il Magnifico restaurant offers a Tuscan cuisine created by our Florentine Chef that celebrate the extraordinary flavours of Italian and local ingredients. Imagine the noblest Italian food and wine traditions fused with modern scents - captivations and reverberations that come to us from afar and far away they lead us. The wine list acts as a counterpoint to the menu, with its roots deeply entrenched in the very best of Tuscany and complemented by the noble wines of Burgundy. Just like Lucrezia's favourite son, Il Magnifico loves art in all its expressions: dance, theatre, music, everything that vibrates in the depths of the soul is welcome, ensuring guests are left with unforgettable memories and an insatiable desire to return
The Butterfly Terrace
With a graceful swoop of the wings, we climb high into the sky to watch over Florence and its ancient rooftops. The Butterfly Terrace patiently waits for us there. The experience is breath-taking: a horizon of unparalleled history to be enjoyed in total relaxation, accompanied by our bartender’s signature cocktails and wines from a prestigious and curated wine list, as is the tradition at Il Tornabuoni. The Butterfly is a suspended haven where one can settle in to meet and converse, while the sun sets with golden reflections on the ancient Florentine residences. Indulge amongst jazz and song and enjoy the terrace during the warmer months. It can be reserved for private events.
La Cave
La Cave with its charming and generous architectural style is a unique space presenting a skilful balance between history and innovation with the ability to host private wine tasting, corporate meetings and events. The history of this place as an old cellar and food storage in the middle age could be find in the incredible selection of local and international wines.
IL Magnifico Cafè
From breakfast to teatime with small patisserie from aperitivi to the most sophisticated of after-dinners, the experience at Il Magnifico Cafè is accompanied by a curated and ambitious wine list as an international cocktail philosophy too. ll Magnifico Café is an intimate treasure chest which holds infinite opportunities to experience epicurean pleasures and enjoy life’s precious moments.
