1. Enoteca Pinchiorri
Enoteca Pinchiorri remains Florence’s only three-star restaurant in the 2026 guide, and the only one in Tuscany. Annie Feolde and Giorgio Pinchiorri built it over decades around French technique applied to Tuscan cooking and a wine cellar famous for its size. Riccardo Monco runs the kitchen.
Third-party guides in 2026 put the tasting menu at about 295 euros before wine; the restaurant’s own current menu page is the final word.
2. Santa Elisabetta
Santa Elisabetta sits in the Torre della Pagliazza inside Hotel Brunelleschi and holds two stars under chef Rocco De Santis, with a seafood-leaning, Campania-inflected tasting menu.
One guide quotes 260 euros for the 10-course menu and 170 euros for the shorter one. One 2026 guide describes the restaurant as temporarily closed in summer, so confirm it is open before you book.
3. Atto di Vito Mollica
Atto, the restaurant of chef Vito Mollica in the Corte Cosimo I courtyard near Palazzo Vecchio, holds one star in the 2026 guide.
Mollica was previously the executive chef at Il Palagio.
4. Il Palagio, Four Seasons Hotel Firenze
Il Palagio is the Four Seasons Florence restaurant, set in the former stable block of the Renaissance Palazzo della Gherardesca with a vaulted ceiling and columns.
We found no report of a change to its star in 2026, but could not confirm who now leads the kitchen.
5. Borgo San Jacopo
Borgo San Jacopo is a one-star restaurant in the 2026 guide and a newcomer to our list.
Check the restaurant’s page for menu prices.
6. Gucci Osteria
Gucci Osteria is among the city’s one-star restaurants.
It is a luxury-brand destination restaurant as much as a dining room.
7. Osteria di Passignano
Osteria di Passignano sits in the Chianti Classico near Florence and is owned by the Antinori wine family, which also makes the Badia a Passignano wine. Chef Matteo Lorenzini has led the kitchen since April 2021.
The Antinori page says the restaurant has kept its star each year since 2007, but we did not find a 2026 confirmation.
8. Ora d’Aria
Ora d’Aria is chef Marco Stabile’s restaurant, a few yards from the Ponte Vecchio on Via dei Georgofili, which reopened in September 2021 with a new look designed by illustrator Gianluca Biscalchin.
Its name, Hour of Air, refers to the prison yard hour at the former Le Murate prison near its original site. We could not confirm a current star.
9. Cibreo
The Cibreo group was built by chef Fabio Picchi, who died in 2022. Today the trattoria in Sant’Ambrogio is run by his son Giulio and appears in the Michelin Guide with a Bib Gourmand.
The group also includes Cibreo Caffe and Teatro del Sale. The fine-dining Ristorante Cibreo shares the trattoria’s kitchen.
10. Il Santo Bevitore
Il Santo Bevitore is a Tuscan trattoria at Via Santo Spirito 64/66 r, listed in the Michelin Guide at the two-euro-sign price level, with a delicatessen next door.
Booking directly with the restaurant is the way to reserve.
Dropped or unconfirmed
We could not confirm the current status of L’Incontro, La Tenda Rossa, Alle Murate and La Pentola dell’Oro, so they are no longer ranked. Reservations are essential at all of the top restaurants.
