Reviews

“A hot day in Firenze, looking for a decent glass of wine, the cool, comfortable interior and Coltrane playing in the background drew me in, I intended to stay for one drink but the fabulous, knowledgeable owner of this new bar, a sommelier no less, knows his wine, so i ended up staying longer.
I'll be back!”

“Oratio has beautiful design with a 2,000 year old Roman cellar down stairs that my husband and I were lucky enough to experience. We stopped in mid-day for a wine tasting and a few delicious snacks. The sommelier & owner were very knowledgeable which made the experience all around 10/10.”
