Behind the wine window

The idea was simple: create a restaurant genuinely connected to Florence—to its traditions, its food, its history and its way of bringing people together.

A tribute, not a trend

The name comes from the buchette del vino, Florence’s centuries-old wine windows. La Buchetta chose the name in 2013, before the windows became a global phenomenon. For the restaurant, they have always represented something deeply Florentine: wine, history and hospitality.

Italian tradition, Tuscan ingredients

Fresh handmade pasta, selected meats, truffles, pecorino and other Italian cheeses, extra-virgin olive oil and ingredients tied to Tuscan tradition are treated with care. The Bistecca alla Fiorentina uses carefully selected meat and a precise ageing process.

La Buchetta says its reputation has been built one table at a time: around food, consistency, quality and authenticity—not trends.

Our roots are Tuscan.
Our story is Florentine.
