Zeb on Via San Miniato is a mother-and-son kitchen with a counter facing an open kitchen — the menu changes with the morning market, and in autumn the first white truffles arrive.

The Open Kitchen, Eastside Oltrarno

On Via San Miniato in the eastern Oltrarno, Zeb is a mother-and-son operation with a counter facing an open kitchen and a menu that changes daily according to the market. Gourmet interpretations of Tuscan classics, prepared carefully and without show. The truffle pasta arrives in autumn when the first white truffles come from San Miniato. The room fills quickly. Book ahead.
