Where to eat in the heart of Florence: San Frediano area
Enoteca Le Barrique was founded in 1993 as a simple wine and snack bistro, to become one of the first landmarks in the Florentine scene for wine tastings and traditional dishes.
Today, with its gastronomic experimentation with Tuscan cuisine, the restaurant offers a rich and varied menu and an assorted and carefully curated wine list, which is constantly being updated.
