💰 Cost for Sharing the Steak

The menu lists the steak at €5.50 all'etto (per 100 grams) with a minimum weight of 1.2 kg.

Here is what that will cost you:

• The Steak: 1.2 kg = 1200 grams = 12 units of 100g. 12 x €5.50 = €66.00 (minimum price).
• Cover Charge (Coperto): €3.00 x 2 people = €6.00.
• Service Charge (Servizio): 12% (usually applied to the food/drink total). 12% of €66 = €7.92.

Estimated Total for just the steak and table fees: ~€79.92

Note: If the steak weighs slightly more than 1.2 kg, or if you order drinks or sides, the price will go up. The 12% service charge will also be calculated on any extras.

Tip: A classic Florentine steak is served very rare (often called al sangue). If you prefer it cooked differently, be sure to specify!

That’s about €40 each, before drinks or anything else. A steak weighing more than 1.2 kg will cost more.

Your steak, to share

The key detail: the bistecca is priced per kilo (€5,50 all'etto) with a 1.2 kg minimum — so you must order at least 1.2 kg (about 2½–3 portions of raw weight, which is plenty for two).

Minimum bill for a shared bistecca:

Item	Amount
Steak (1.2 kg × €5,50)	€6,60
Cover charge (€3,00 × 2)	€6,00
12% service on food (€6,60)	€0,79
Total	≈ €13,40 → about €6,70 each

If the 12% service is applied to the whole bill including covers instead: ≈ €14,10 total, or ≈ €7,05 each.

So realistically, splitting a minimum 1.2 kg bistecca with just the covers and service costs you roughly €6,70–€7 per person — the steak itself is only €3,30 each! The cover charge and service are what you'll actually feel.

One tip: add the Fagioli all'uccelletto (€6,00) — beans in tomato sauce is the classic (and delicious) traditional accompaniment to bistecca alla fiorentina, and for two it's worth the €3,00 each. That would bring the total to about €9,70 each (with service), and it's a more typical Florentine meal. Nobody will complain about a big steak for €6,60, but you need to know you can't order a smaller one.

Here is the translation of the menu.

To answer your specific question about the steak: The steak will cost you a minimum of €66.00 just for the meat.

Here is the breakdown of why and the hidden extras you need to factor in:

The Steak Cost

• Bistecca alla fiorentina (min. 1,2 kg) - 5,50 all'etto
• Translation: Florentine steak (minimum 1.2 kg) - €5.50 per "etto".
• Understanding "etto": An "etto" is a hectogram (100 grams). There are 10 etti in 1 kilogram.
• The Math: A minimum 1.2 kg steak is 1,200 grams, or 12 etti. 12 × €5.50 = €66.00.
• Note: They usually bring the raw meat to your table to show you. If it weighs more than 1.2kg, you will pay more (an extra €5.50 for every 100g over the minimum).

The Hidden Extras (Must Add)

• Coperto € 3,00 a persona: Cover charge of €3.00 per person. For two of you, that's €6.00.
• Servizio 12% non incluso: A 12% service charge is not included and will be added to your final bill.

Total Estimated Cost:

• Steak: €66.00
• Coperto (2 people): €6.00
• Subtotal: €72.00
• 12% Service Charge: €8.64
• Total out-the-door just for sharing the steak: ~€80.64

(This does not include drinks, appetizers, or sides).

Cost for 2 sharing the steak

The steak is priced by weight (€5,50 per 100 g) with a minimum of 1,2 kg, so it can't be ordered lighter — the minimum alone is 12 × €5,50 = €66,00.

Item	Amount
Steak at minimum weight (1,2 kg)	€66,00
Cover charge (2 × €3,00)	€6,00
Service 12% (on the steak)	€7,92
Total	≈ €79,92
Per person	≈ €40,00

Two caveats: if the actual cut weighs more than 1,2 kg, add €5,50 for every extra 100 g (e.g. a 1,4 kg steak = €77 + €6 cover + ~€9.24 service ≈ €92); and if the service is calculated on the total including the cover, it comes to about €80.16 instead. So budget roughly €40 per person for just the steak at minimum weight.

Here is the translation of the menu from Trattoria del Gufo - Firenze dal 1962:

For 2 people sharing the steak:

The Bistecca alla fiorentina is made to be shared. It's one huge T-bone on the bone, served very rare, and you are charged by weight.

• 5,50 all'etto = €5.50 per 100g = €55.00 per kg
• Minimum size is 1.2 kg

So the minimum price for the meat is: 12 etti x €5.50 = €66.00

Plus the mandatory cover charge: €3.00 x 2 people = €6.00

Total minimum before sides/drinks/tip: €72.00 for the 2 of you.

The final weight will be on the bill - if the steak they bring is e.g. 1.3kg it will be €71.50 + €6.00 = €77.50, if it's 1.5kg it will be €82.50 + €6.00 = €88.50, etc.

With the 12% service noted at the bottom, budget about €80-€82 for a 1.2kg steak for two if you add service/tip.

Based on the menu, here is the breakdown for two people sharing the steak:

The Dish:

• Item: Bistecca alla fiorentina (Florentine Steak)
• Details: Minimum weight 1.2 kg.
• Price: 5,50 "all'etto" (per 100 grams).

The Cost Calculation:

1. The Steak: Since the minimum is 1.2 kg (1,200 grams), you calculate 12 units of 100g.
   • 12 x €5.50 = €66.00
2. Cover Charge (Coperto): The top of the menu states "Coperto € 3,00 a persona" (€3.00 per person).
   • €3.00 x 2 people = €6.00

Estimated Total: €72.00

Note: At the bottom, it says "Servizio 12% non incluso" (Service 12% not included), so you may want to add a 12% service charge on top of that total.

The cost of sharing the steak

The bistecca is priced by weight: €5.50 per 100g, with a minimum of 1.2 kg.

• Minimum (1.2 kg): €66.00 — that's the floor, even for two people
• A typical steak for two might come in at 1.2–1.5 kg, so realistically €66–€82.50

Then add:

• Coperto: €3.00 × 2 = €6.00
• 12% service on the total

Rough estimate for just the steak + cover: ~€80. If you add a side or two (which you'll likely want — the fagioli all'uccelletto is classic with it), expect around €90–€100 total.

One tip: at Florentine trattorias the waiter usually brings the steak out to show you the weight before cooking, so you'll know the exact price before committing.

How much will the steak cost for two?

In Italy, Florentine steak is priced "all'etto", which means per 100 grams. Since the menu states a minimum weight of 1.2 kg (which equals 12 etti), here is what the minimum-sized steak will cost you:

1. The Steak: 12 (etti) × €5.50 = €66.00
2. Cover Charge (Coperto): €3.00 × 2 people = €6.00
3. 12% Service Charge (Servizio): The menu notes a 12% service fee at the bottom.
   • If applied to the whole bill (€72.00): €8.64
   • (Note: If it's only applied to the food and not the coperto, it will be €7.92).

Total Minimum Cost: €79.92 – €80.64 (or about €40 per person), before any drinks or side dishes.

(Tip: Because steaks are cut by hand, the actual weight might be slightly over 1.2 kg—for example, 1.3 kg or 1.4 kg. The waiter will usually bring the raw cut to your table on a scale or tell you the exact weight before cooking it so you can approve the final price!)

Your steak cost 💸

The bistecca is priced by weight (€5.50 per 100g), with a minimum of 1.2 kg. So:

Item	Cost
Steak at minimum weight (12 × €5.50)	€66.00
Coperto (2 people)	€6.00
Minimum total	€72.00

Heads up:

• The steak could easily weigh more than 1.2 kg, so expect the price to climb ~€5.50 for every extra 100g.
• There's a 12% service charge not included — on a €66 steak that adds another ~€7.92, bringing you to roughly €80.

A 1.2 kg Florentine steak shared between two is a generous but very doable portion — enjoy! 🥩

What will the steak cost for 2 to share?

It's priced by weight, which is the tricky part:

5,50 all'etto = €5.50 per 100g (an etto)

The minimum steak is 1.2 kg = 12 etti

12 × €5.50 = €66.00 for the steak itself

For 2 people, add:

• Steak: €66.00
• Cover charge: €3.00 × 2 = €6.00
• Subtotal: €72.00
• Service 12% (not included): + €8.64

Total: €80.64 - about €40.32 each

That's just for the steak, with no drinks, sides, or other courses. If they bring you a slightly bigger steak — 1.4 kg is common — it would be €77.00 before cover and service.

Here is the translation, followed by the steak calculation.

Cost for Sharing the Steak

The Bistecca alla fiorentina has a minimum weight of 1.2 kg (1,200g) and is priced at €5.50 per 100g ("etto").

Calculation for the minimum steak: 1.2 kg = 12 x 100g
12 x €5.50 = €66.00

So the steak will cost €66.00 for the two of you at the minimum weight.

Extra costs to keep in mind:

• Coperto (cover charge): €3.00 each x 2 = €6.00
• 12% service charge: Not included, so add that on top.

(Tip: If the 1.2 kg minimum is too big, they won't serve it smaller, but it is traditionally shared rare with beans or roasted potatoes on the side.)

• Subtotal: €72.00
• If you add the 12% service: about €8.64 more, for roughly €80.64 total

Cost for 2 people sharing the steak

The Bistecca alla Fiorentina is priced at €5.50 per 100g (etto) with a minimum weight of 1.2 kg (which is the traditional portion size for 2 people).

Item	Cost
Steak (1.2 kg = 12 × 100g)	12 × €5.50 = €66.00
Cover charge (2 × €3.00)	€6.00
Subtotal	€72.00
12% service charge	€8.64
Total (steak only)	≈ €80.64

So for just the steak + mandatory charges for two people, budget roughly €81. That doesn't include drinks, sides, or dessert. If you add, say, a side of roasted peppers (€6) and fries (€5) to share, plus the 12% service on those, your total would be closer to €94–€95.

Sharing the steak: what will it cost?

The Florentine steak (bistecca alla fiorentina) costs €5.50 per 100 g, or €55 per kg, with a minimum weight of 1.2 kg.

For two people sharing the minimum-size steak:

• Steak: €66
• Cover charge: €3 each = €6
• 12% service charge: approximately €8.64

Estimated total for two: €80.64, before drinks, sides, or anything else. This assumes service is applied to the cover charge too; otherwise, it would be €79.92. A heavier steak will cost more, so ask them to confirm its weight and price before cooking.

Cost of the steak for two

• Steak: 1.2 kg = 12 × 100 g, so 12 × €5.50 = €66.00 minimum
• Cover charge: 2 × €3.00 = €6.00
• Subtotal: €72.00
• Service at 12%: about €8.64
• Total: about €80.64, or roughly €40 each, before drinks, sides, or anything else

The steak is sold by weight, so if yours comes out heavier than 1.2 kg, the price goes up. Ask the waiter to show you the cut and tell you the weight and price first. If you add a side each (say, beans and peppers at €6 each), the total rises by about €13.40 with service.

What the shared steak costs

The steak is priced by weight, not per person: €5.50 per 100 g ("etto"), with a minimum of 1.2 kg. So:

• Steak at the minimum weight: 1.2 kg = 12 × €5.50 = €66.00 (about €33 each). Note: if the actual steak weighs more, you pay for the actual weight.
• Coperto for two: 2 × €3.00 = €6.00 → subtotal €72.00
• Service (12%, not included): €8.64

Total for the two of you, steak only: at least €80.64 (≈ €40.30 each). Any sides, drinks or desserts would be added on top.

Cost of sharing the steak

The price is per etto (100 g), and the minimum is 1.2 kg, which is 12 etti.

Item	Cost
Bistecca, 1.2 kg (12 × €5.50)	€66.00
Cover charge (2 × €3.00)	€6.00
Subtotal	€72.00
Service charge 12%	€8.64
Total	≈ €80.64

Things to know:

• The minimum is only a minimum. The steak is cut and weighed, so it often comes in heavier. A 1.5 kg steak would be €82.50 for the meat alone, or about €100 in total. You can ask to see the cut or request one close to 1.2 kg.
• 1.2 kg is plenty for two. That weight includes the bone.
• The total covers only the steak. Sides, drinks and wine are extra. A contorno like the beans (€6) goes very well with it.
• It's traditionally served rare (al sangue). Many Florentine places won't cook it beyond medium-rare.

The steak is €5.50 per 100 g, with a minimum weight of 1.2 kg. At the minimum, it costs €66 total—about €33 each if you share it.

There’s also a €3 cover charge per person (€6 for both of you), and 12% service is not included. So, assuming the steak is exactly 1.2 kg and service is charged on the steak plus cover, your total would be about €80.64. The steak could cost more if it weighs over the minimum.

Cost Calculation: Sharing the Steak

Here is the breakdown for 2 people sharing the steak:

1. The Steak Cost:

   • The menu lists the price as € 5.50 "all'etto".
   • In Italy, 1 etto = 100 grams. So the price is €5.50 per 100g.
   • The menu states a minimum weight of 1.2 kg (1200g).
   • Calculation: 1200g / 100g = 12 units.
   • 12 units × €5.50 = €66.00.

2. Service Charge:

   • The bottom of the menu says "Servizio 12% non incluso" (12% service not included).
   • Calculation: €66.00 × 0.12 = €7.92.

3. Cover Charge (Coperto):

   • The menu charges €3.00 per person for sitting down.
   • Calculation: 2 people × €3.00 = €6.00.

Total Estimated Cost: To share the steak (and nothing else), it will cost you approximately €79.92 (rounded up to €80.00).

(Note: If you plan to order drinks or side dishes, the 12% service charge will apply to those items as well, and you will need to pay the €3.00 cover charge regardless of what you eat.)

Based on the menu provided, here is the breakdown for your request.

The Cost of the Steak The steak on the menu is "Bistecca alla Fiorentina" (Florentine Steak).

• Price: The menu lists the price as 12,00 € all'etto. This means €12.00 per 100 grams.

Since you are two people sharing, you will likely order a whole steak weighing between 800g and 1kg (1000g), which is the standard serving size for two.

• Estimated Weight: ~900g - 1000g
• Total Cost: €108 – €120 (roughly €54 – €60 per person).

Cost of Sharing the Steak (Bistecca alla Fiorentina)

The steak is priced at €5.50 "all'etto" (per 100 grams). The menu states a minimum weight of 1.2 kg (1200 grams).

Here is what it will cost for the two of you:

1. The Steak: 1200g (1.2kg) ÷ 100g = 12 units. 12 x €5.50 = €66.00 (minimum cost).
2. Cover Charge (Coperto): €3.00 per person x 2 = €6.00.
3. Service Charge: 12% of the steak cost (€66.00) = €7.92.

Estimated Minimum Total for just the steak, sitting at the table, and service: €79.92 (This does not include drinks, water, or side dishes).

Good to know: A traditional Bistecca alla Fiorentina is a massive, thick-cut T-bone steak. 1.2kg is plenty for two people, especially if you order an appetizer or a side of roasted potatoes to go with it. You usually cannot ask for a smaller steak than the minimum weight, and it is typically priced by the actual weight of the cut they bring to your table (which might be slightly more than 1.2kg).

Cost for the two of you sharing the steak

The steak is priced per 100 g ("etto") with a 1.2 kg minimum, so the smallest steak you can order is 12 × €5.50 = €66.00.

Item	Cost
Bistecca alla fiorentina (min. 1.2 kg)	€66.00
Coperto (2 × €3.00)	€6.00
Subtotal	€72.00
Service (12%)	€8.64
Total (minimum)	€80.64 (~€40.30 each)

Two caveats: the final price depends on the actual weight of the steak (e.g., a 1.5 kg steak = €82.50, bringing the total to ~€99.10), and this assumes you order nothing else — drinks, sides or desserts would add on top.

Here is the full translation of the menu, followed by the exact cost calculation for the steak for two.

A few tips:

• Weight variation: The steak is cut fresh on the bone, so the actual piece might weigh slightly more (e.g., 1.3 kg or 1.4 kg). They will usually show you the raw cut with its exact weight and price before grilling it. Every additional 100g adds €5.50 (plus the 12% service).
• This total does not include drinks, sides, or water.

Sharing the steak

The steak is priced by weight: €5.50 per 100 g, with a 1.2 kg minimum.

• Minimum steak: 12 × €5.50 = €66.00
• Cover charge: 2 × €3.00 = €6.00
• Subtotal: €72.00
• • 12% service: ≈ €80.64 total

So roughly €80 for the two of you with just the steak and nothing else — about €40 each.

A couple of things to keep in mind:

• The actual cut will often weigh more than 1.2 kg (they'll usually show/weigh it for you first). At 1.4 kg, for example, the steak alone would be €77.
• Sides aren't included — a side of beans or fries would add €5–6 each, before service.

The steak cost for 2 people

The Bistecca alla Fiorentina is priced at €5.50 per etto (per 100g), and there’s a 1.2 kg minimum order.

• 1.2 kg = 1,200 g = 12 etto
• 12 × €5.50 = €66.00

So sharing the steak will cost you €66.00 for the meat alone (that’s the smallest portion they serve).

Remember to add:

• Cover charge: €3 × 2 people = €6.00
• Service: 12% on top of your food/drink (not included in the prices)

That 1.2 kg steak is a classic Florentine portion—usually about 2–3 cm thick and served very rare—so it’s plenty to share between two. Enjoy!

Cost of sharing the steak 🥩

The bistecca is priced by weight at €5.50 per etto (100g), with a minimum order of 1.2 kg — which is perfect for two (about 600g each, the traditional way to eat it):

Item	Cost
Steak (1.2 kg × €5.50/100g)	€66.00
Cover charge (2 × €3)	€6.00
Service (12%)	€8.64
Total	≈ €80.64

⚠️ One thing to know: 1.2 kg is just the minimum. Since it's charged by weight, the kitchen may cut a larger steak (they'll usually tell you the weight first), so the final price could be a bit higher. Sides and drinks are extra. Buon appetito!

The menu is in Italian. The steak is “Bistecca alla fiorentina” (T-bone steak), listed as €5.50 per 100 g, with a minimum of 1.2 kg. The cover charge is €3 per person.

If you share 1.2 kg total of steak:

• Steak: €66
• Cover charge for 2 people: €6
• Total before 12% service: €72
• Total with 12% service: €80.64

So, sharing the minimum 1.2 kg steak would cost €80.64 total. Split evenly, that’s €40.32 each.
