CCC:
meat cooked in the fireplace

Oak. Embers. Silence. Then the sound of meat meeting the fire. "CCC Ciccia Cotta al Camino" isn't a technique, it's a ritual we've repeated every evening since 1976. Here, meat is treated like a true work of art : it requires research, study, and testing, and is displayed and served as if it were a painting.

From Chianina IGP to KOBE

Tuscany also has its voice

Chi siamo

The Philosophy of the Antica Trattoria del Turbone

There are things you can't learn from books. The color of the embers when they're ready. The exact moment to turn the meat. The silence that falls in the dining room when a crucial cut arrives.

We learned these things here, in front of this fireplace, observing those who came before us.

At Turbone, we believe that quality isn't optional: it's the starting point. That's why we select each cut with the same care as a goldsmith, we work only with raw materials we know and respect, and we never take shortcuts. Ever.

The oak charcoal isn't an aesthetic choice, it's a flavor choice. Slow cooking isn't a fad; it's the only way we know to do things right.

For fifty years and more, the Guiducci family has championed a simple idea: treating every dish as if it were the last to leave this kitchen. With that care.

With that concentration.

With that respect.

Welcome to Turbone.

The Guiducci Family — The History of Antica Trattoria del Turbone Since 1976

Mario and Milena lit the first fire. Giuseppe and Ilaria keep it burning every evening. It's not just a restaurant,

It is a family promise that has been renewed since 1976.

Today, Giuseppe (Chef) and Ilaria (Head Waiter) carry on the family business with the passion, professionalism, and dedication that their parents have passed on to them over the years to this work.

Thanks to excellent service and the high quality of their dishes, made only with the finest selected raw materials, they are proud to be considered one of the best grill restaurants in Tuscany and among the best meat restaurants in the Florence area, on TripAdvisor, Google and other review platforms.

Limited-Edition Artist dry-aged cuts — Every Friday at Antica Trattoria del Turbone

You can't miss them! Every Friday you'll find a new dry-aging process, such as Dark Chocolate and Rum, Nipozzano Wine, Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla, Salted Butter and Pink Peppercorn, Licorice, and so on.

Why Frollature d'Artista? Because, just like a work of art, they required a creative process to make them unique and inimitable.

Every Friday, a new maturation. Every Friday, a limited edition that won't be coming back. If you miss it, you wait for the next one—and it won't be the same.
