Settle in at La Bussola, a central Florence restaurant where Tuscan tradition meets wood-fired pizza. Share a burrata, then choose between the Tuscan pizza, a fish dish or the carbonara in a relaxed industrial-style room.

📖

Full description

La Bussola is an Italian restaurant in central Florence that mixes Tuscan cooking with fish dishes and pizza. Reviewers single out the Tuscan pizza and the Bussola pizza, a burrata starter that works well for sharing, and a carbonara one diner ranked among the best they had in Italy.

Service gets consistent mentions as professional and hospitable. The room pairs pale-wood accents with an industrial look.

It is open through the day without a midday break, which makes it practical for a late lunch or an unhurried dinner, and it suits couples particularly well.

Reviews

Top quality food, professional service, great hospitality. Burrata was so delicious. It’s a great option to share as a starter. Bussola pizza was amazing. A great Neapolitan pizza with top quality ingredients. Roasted potatoes! Out of this world! So good! It has very quiet outdoor patio where you are seated right…
