Be careful when asking a Florentine (or Italian) where the best pasta in Florence is. To any Italian, there\u2019s no <\/span>pasta like their <\/span>Nonna<\/span><\/i>\u2019s\u2014even when <\/span>faced with a world-renowned chef<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Luckily, we have the ultimate list of the best places for pasta in Florence. Follow this list and you\u2019ll never go wrong. So buckle up\u2014we\u2019ve selected for you the seven perfect places to enjoy pasta like you had an Italian <\/span>Nonna<\/span><\/i> of your own.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Angiolino – Ai 13 Arrosti<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Deep in the heart of <\/span>Oltrarno<\/a>, Angiolino \u2013 Ai 13 Arrosti<\/a><\/span> will surprise you with its commitment to authentic Tuscan cuisine<\/a>. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The menu here provides Tuscan-style<\/a> <\/span>pasta fresca<\/span><\/i> with a variety of truffle sauces or venison meat sauces. Try the wild boar <\/span>ragu, one of the most famous pasta sauces in Florence: it\u2019ll make you understand the meaning of life and the Florentine essence<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Osteria Antica Casa Torre<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

You already know that Italians are so crazy about <\/span>pasta that they have a name for every different type of <\/span>noodle. And Tuscany is known for<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>pappardelle: flat, large noodles, made with eggs. This is the most authentic way to enjoy wild boar ragu. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The best place to find <\/span>boar pappardelle is Osteria Antica Casa Torre<\/a><\/span>. The <\/span>pappardelle have just the right amount of roughness to hold sauce, and the boar meat melts in your mouth almost like a cream.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Trattoria Mario<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

At<\/span>\u00a0Trattoria Mario (Via Rosina 2r<\/em>)<\/span>, the secret for a good pasta runs in the family.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>As one of the best restaurants in Florence<\/a>, it’s only open during lunch time, so you\u2019ll have to find a little room in your busy schedule to enjoy the place.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The menu changes every day, but you won\u2019t miss a good <\/span>pasta dish. Their pasta al rag\u00f9<\/em> is a particularly good choice when available.<\/span> It’s different than a typical bolognese sauce in that it only uses beef, and is slow-cooked to perfection over the course of five hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Osteria del Gatto e la Volpe<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Osteria del Gatto e la Volpe<\/span><\/a> is a historical place in Florence, in one of its most historical alleys. The variety of traditional food that you can find here is impressive: and whatever you choose, you\u2019ll be happy with it. The good-to-go place if you want to try a little bit of everything.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. La Gratella<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

La Gratella<\/span><\/a> is another typical place where to try regional food and fresh pasta. The atmosphere is cozy and the place warm. Here, you can also find what we think is the best truffle pasta<\/a> in Florence: the <\/span>ravioli stuffed with lemon and covered in truffle sauce and parmesan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Tamer\u00f2 Pasta Bar<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Tamer\u00f2 Pasta Bar<\/span><\/a> doesn\u2019t need an introduction: it\u2019s just a quintessential fun spot when it comes to pasta. Its location in a former garage is sure to pique your interest, and you can try here everything that Tuscany has to offer in terms of typical pasta.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our favorite is <\/span>pici cacio e pepe<\/span><\/i>: a Florentine pasta (<\/span>pici<\/span><\/i> are a strong kind of noodle) with a sauce made with cheese and just the right amount of pepper. You can also pair your pasta with creative cocktails.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Deposito Bagagli<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Deposito Bagagli (<\/span>Piazza della Libert\u00e0, 29\/r<\/em>)<\/span> literally means \u201cluggage storage.\u201d And this uniquely named spot is the last pasta spot that you must visit before leaving Florence.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A few years ago, the place was renowned for its all-you-can-eat dinners that offered only <\/span>ravioli. Times changed, but trust us: the <\/span>ravioli are still good, and the <\/span>carbonara will melt in your mouth.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A Final Tip<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

For a complete Florentine experience, remember to always pair your pasta with a good glass of Tuscan wine<\/a> (or maybe two). There\u2019s no shame in having some booze during lunchtime and it\u2019ll surely increase your level of conviviality\u2026 and make every pasta you\u2019ll try the best pasta you\u2019ve ever have!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
