Il Cernacchio is a small Italian sandwich shop known for its Tuscan-style paninis, including a notably flavorful vegan Papillon with caramelized onions and zucchini. The venue features vaulted seating upstairs and offers quick, friendly service, with prices considered reasonable for Florence. While it is omnivore-focused with meats and traditional dishes like lampredotto and lasagna, the vegan sandwich has earned consistent praise as a standout option.
