"The Colsi family’s trattoria has had a loyal following for three decades. Eat classic dishes like ribollita (hearty soup)."

Maureen B. Fant

"The ribollita alone was worth the train ride from Rome. This genre of soup is characterized by a wonderful texture and an almost tangy taste -- none of that boiled-veg flatness you sometimes get with minestrone."

Stefania Pianigiani

"5 addresses in Florence where you can try ribollita: Trattoria Da Ruggero - A memorable Ribollita of an ancient flavour and made with authentic ingredients."

Katie Edgerley

"Da Ruggero serve delicious Florentine classics made with the freshest and most flavoursome ingredients, such as ribollita (a hearty vegetable soup)."

Gourmet Lee

"This one was full of vegetables and white beans and was served hot. It was memorable."

Vanessa Lorig

"I decided to order ribollita, a Tuscan stew found at almost every trattoria made from bread, white beans, and cavolo nero (Tuscan black cabbage/kale). Just add a drizzle of fruity olive oil and freshly cracked pepper and this Tuscan classic is sure to warm you up!"

Casa Howard

"Ribollita (vegetable soup and stale bread, sometimes accompanied by pork rinds), absolutely to eat at the Trattoria Ruggero."
