5Florentine Cuisine and Dining Etiquette

Florence is a haven for food enthusiasts, offering delectable Tuscan cuisine. When dining in local establishments, remember that dinner is typically served later in the evening, often starting around 7:30 pm.

It’s customary to greet the staff upon entering and to wait to be seated. Tipping is not as prevalent as in some other countries, as service charges are often included. However, rounding up the bill or leaving small change is appreciated.
