This is a no-frills, thoroughly Florentine trattoria offering classic dishes at (almost) too-good-to-be-true prices. Second courses include everything from bresaola carpaccio, Florentine steak and roasted veal to more adventurous choices like boiled tongue (!). Many of the top menu picks are pastas, like the fresh "garganelli" or rabbit ravioli.
Whether you're in Florence a few hours or a few years, going to La Casalinga you get a warm-and-fuzzy feeling like you're part of a family. The staff is welcoming; watching them tease and talk with the regulars as they move from table to table is entertaining enough to merit a visit. It's almost just a bonus that the food is amazing, too.
Don't attempt to walk-in and dine—always call ahead here!
