The story

Opened in 1985 as a gastronomia (deli), Zeb - for 'zuppa e bollito', soup and boiled meat - is now a tiny counter where Alberto and his mother serve seasonal Tuscan plates side by side with guests, and the deli counter still tempts locals. Michelin has recognised it for value. On the way up to Piazzale Michelangelo.

🍽️ What to order

  • Bollito (boiled meats) with green sauce
  • Handmade pasta of the day
  • Something from the deli counter

💡 Insider tips

  • Book ahead - very few seats
  • Walk up to Piazzale Michelangelo afterwards
