Drinks before dinner and romantic dinners
by ResidenceHilda about Colle Bereto
Dear Scylla1,
about the bar, I could suggest Colle Bereto or Jet Cavalli, two new, modern, young and trendy bars where you can the traditional aperitivo (a drink and some food before dinner) from 7 pm. For your romantic dinner, I weould suggest three places: Cantinetta Barbagianni (very intimate, candles, soft light, Tuscan cuisine, approx. 50.00 EUR/person), Cezanne (extremely intimate, only a few people and a few tables, soft lights, approx. 80.00 EUR/person) and La Giostra (a classic, very famous and warm atmosphere, tuscan cuisine, approx. 80.00 EUR/person).
Hope you will enjoy your roamntic week-end,
Valentina

www.residencehilda.it Florence and Italy in general is very casual. Even if you go out at night you can always wear jeans which are considered trendy. Is the atmosphea of the place which is different, not your dresses. But of course if you wish to dres up, no problem!

Most romantic restaurant & bar in florence?
by scylla1
Hello,
I am taking my boyfriend to Florence in January and want to treat him to an evening on the town - a hot date as it were! Ideally i'd like to take him to a posh bar for drinks and then on to a romantic restaurant for dinner. I've been to florence before, but didn't really do the nightlife, so any suggestions would be great! (BTW - we're both in our early 30s.)
Thanks!!

Here's a copy and paste of a tip I wrote:
Restaurant Name: Ciro and Sons
Ciro and Sons fine restaurant is located in a building that was home to Pope Clemente VIII. The main dining room features frescos painted in the late 18th century.
Diner including wine will set you back a lot of money, however for that special night it is worth the trip.
Theme: Italian
Comparison: most expensive
Prices: US$41 and up » Currency Converter
Address: via del Giglio 28R
Website: www.ciroandsons.com
They have an upstairs bar as well as in and outdoor dining. Main dining room is worth a visit.
Enjoy
Ciao

A very elegant, minimal restaurant close Piazza Santa Croce is 'Nobilis': it's quite expensive (as every restaurant in this category), but menu is at the top and there's a great wines selection.

If you'd like a pre-dinner drink, the ideal place is Sesame (a maghrebin bistrot with a nice garden and chic atmosphere):

Enjoy Florence!
