There isn't a single place unless you count what goes into a sosreport.
"ethtool -i DEVNAME" is often a good start because that gives you the
driver name and the pci slot it's connected to.  Other ethtool options will
tell you about the current state of the NIC.

Now you've got the pci slot, you can use lspci -vs to get more
information.   For example, on one of my machines:

$ ethtool -i p4p2
driver: e1000e
version: 2.3.2-k
firmware-version: 5.6-2
bus-info: 0000:03:00.1
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: no

$ sudo lspci -vs 0000:03:00.1
03:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (rev 06)
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 35
        Memory at e1a20000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
        Memory at e1a00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
        I/O ports at 2000 [size=32]
        Capabilities: [c8] Power Management version 2
        Capabilities: [d0] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
        Capabilities: [e0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
        Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
        Capabilities: [140] Device Serial Number 00-15-17-ff-ff-1d-f5-56
        Kernel driver in use: e1000e
        Kernel modules: e1000e

That should at least be a good start.
