Fodor's Expert Review Fuori Porta

Perhaps the oldest and best wine bar in Florence, this place serves cured meats and cheeses, as well as daily specials. Crostini and crostoni—grilled breads topped with a mélange of cheeses and meats—are the house specialty; the verdure sott'olio (vegetables with oil) are divine. The lengthy wine list offers great wines by the glass, and terrific bottles from all over Italy and beyond. All this can be enjoyed at rustic wooden tables, and outdoors when weather allows.
