Chianti Soul Kitchen
As children of this land, we certainly cannot overlook the incredible culinary heritage of Tuscany, known and admired throughout the world. We offer many regional dishes - from the classic Florentine steak, to Caciucco and Ribollita. With careful preparation and the choicest of fresh produce, these traditional recipes are re-evaluated and sometimes given a twist of modernity. Of course, there are also the ‘other’ typical Italian dishes which, the whole world envies. Our staff lovingly and scrupulously follow the traditional recipes of these dishes in the sure knowledge that they can satisfy even the most demanding palate.
Antonimax has more! With an eye to the world of Chianti Soul cuisine our curious chef loves to use her genius in experimenting with new combinations to attract the diner’s interest and transport him to a new dimension of pleasure. Well thought out and made from high quality, fresh ingredients, the fusion dishes aim to engage the diner in new taste sensations.
Our guests may taste, for example, various types of carpaccio, thinly sliced Black Angus, or Chianina beef, with artichokes and marinated salmon. ‘Gnocchetti’ with Chianti Classico wine. A pecorino cheese and fava bean soufflé with a Chianti Classico sauce and many other creations from the chef that are offered daily. A ‘360 degree’ cuisine that utilises a combination of original tastes and ingredients to allows the diner to discover new and extremely satisfying flavours.
Among the most popular dishes appreciated by our customers are those based around fish.

Goffredo Tripi
"Un ristorante che coniuga il buon cibo, la tradizione delle terre toscane, ottimi vini e una squisita cortesia. Inoltre, in questi particolari tempi che viviamo, pone una grande attenzione anche alla sicurezza dei clienti sul fronte Covid. Lo consiglio vivamente. Aggiornamento. offre deliziose combinazioni nel servizio di asporto che offre alla clientela, permette la prenotazione ad un orario ben preciso con consegna puntuale e precisa, continua nella sua "vocazione" delicatamente esplorativa dei cibi e dell'unione di gusti e sapori. Rinnovo l'invito, a chi non ne abbia ancora provato le qualità, di ordinare da loro un menù. Non ve ne pentirete. E poi, se avete fortuna, ci trovate anche Bernie!"

"Della serie "si mangia (anche) con gli occhi": qui l'arte sublima i sapori ed è il gusto a giovarne per la gioia del palato! Merito di Antonio e Max che amano il proprio lavoro, e la passione, quando è autentica, si mostra a 360°: dalle pietanze alla meticolosa cura dei dettagli. Va aggiunta 1 ⭐ anche se non fa media: è per la musica che, discreta, accompagna l'esperienza "Chianti Soul Kitchen"."
