From a burrata of Puglia to a Florentine bistecca — authentic Italian cooking, served where the river meets the old town.
Ristorante Fiorentina sits on the Blumenrain, with a panoramic view of the Rhine from its window front and terrace. Inside, a modern-elegant interior; outside, the slow drift of the water.
Each dish carries the character of its region — chosen with care, prepared simply, served with generosity.
A burrata from Puglia, or a platter as in Emilia-Romagna.
Slow-proved dough, blistered in a wood-fired oven.
A beautiful cut of meat, grilled over fire as in Florence.
Light fish fillets from the Mediterranean, fine Italian wines.
Creamy burrata, datterini tomatoes, Ligurian olive oil, basil.
Dry-aged T-bone, grilled over open flame, rosemary, lemon.
Fresh egg tagliatelle, butter, parmigiano, seasonal truffle.
When the weather is kind, our terrace is the finest seat in Basel — the Rhine before you, the Münster behind. Terrace tables are reserved by telephone only.
