Essenziale is a project started in September 2016.
Essenziale serves Italian cuisine that enjoys to be contaminated from the rest of the world.
Service is taken care of by only one waiter, that takes orders and serve the wine,
while all the rest is done by our cooks, that serve and explain the dishes they prepare.
Essenziale builds on a great team spirit, its goal is to give quality and professionalism
in a spontaneous and informal way, enjoy and let people enjoy both the flavors and the experience.
Essenziale is in Florence in Piazza di Cestello, open for dinner from Tuesday to Sunday.

“To complicate is simple, to simplify is complicated… Everybody is able to complicate. Only a few can simplify.
To simplify you need to take out, but to take out you need to know what to take out.”

-Bruno Munari
