At RAARO, every detail is designed to surprise and delight. Let yourself be won over by our signature drinks, our gourmet bites, and a surprising wine list.
RAARO Sips & Bites, a Cocktail Bar & Bistrot in Florence, was born from the passion of Claudio Mariottini and Francesco Fabiani for mixology, with interior design curated by Francesco Barthel. The name, RAARO (with two "A"s because one "A" alone wouldn't have been sufficiently rare), precisely expresses our philosophy: the pursuit of rare excellence, of what is not common, and that elevates the experience beyond the ordinary.
Sips
Our DRINKS selection, curated by the creative direction of Julian Biondi with resident bartenders
Ginevra Gabbrielli and Mattia Vercelli, is a tribute to the art of mixology with a focus on the rarity
of ingredients and innovative techniques.
For every classic present on our drink list, you will find a contemporary version, a reinterpretation
that pushes the boundaries of the mixology.
A selection of exclusive Signature Negronis, four unique creations that celebrate this iconic Florentine cocktail, could not be missing, also available in an elegant tasting format for a complete sensory experience.
For those looking for refined alternatives, our Low & No Alcohol offer is designed to amaze, with original creations that have nothing to envy from traditional cocktails in terms of flavor and complexity.
Bites
Our FOOD selection, under the creative direction of Chef Arturo Dori, is an invitation to discover authentic flavors and refined pairings, in line with the philosophy of rarity that animates RAARO Sips & Bites. Let yourself be tempted by our filled duchesse, delicious bite-sized morsels perfect for accompanying your cocktails, our various tapas made with meat and fish to titillate the palate with small plates.
Certainly try our toastoni (large toasts), made with artisanal brioche bread in a pan, toasted and filled with top-quality ingredients like our truffle cream and foie gras escalopes.
Lovers of intense flavors can delight in our selections of cured meats and cheeses chosen from the best of the local area and beyond.
For a more refined culinary experience, we invite you to discover our tartares, expertly prepared with premium Black Angus beef or fresh salmon, and enhanced by seasonings that accentuate their exceptional quality.
