    Bruschetta was really fresh. The stuffed pasta with mussels was so good! The sauce of the pasta was the highlight so far. Very satisfied with the taste of the food and the presentation! Very friendly and welcoming staff too. Overall it’s a lovely experience

    I really wanted to like this restaurant, but I find it hard mostly due to two factors. First is the foul smell of the sewer from the manhole cover a few meters away from my outdoor seating. It is not the fault of the restaurant per se, but they really should think twice before placing the outdoor seating there. That smell ruined half of the dining experience, while the other half was destroyed by the extreme delay of food. 48 minutes waiting time for starters and another 44 minutes for one single main course was unacceptable when the restaurant was not even full. The lamb was actually very tasty, with crunchy and fatty pistachio crust and tender and juicy meat. They obviously tried to put in the effort for presentation, but I would be happier if I received the same food earlier with minimal plating. Maybe they should remove the outdoor seating for now - avoid the awful smell and reduce capacity to improve on speed.

    The whole restaurant was a vibe. Luca was a dream of a waiter, served us and treated us like family. He reassured us multiple times if we need any help to ask him. The restaurants setting was homey and just good overall!

    Very good restaurant in Centre of Florence. If you are in Florence and looking for a very good restaurant go there. You will not regret it. Food and service is very good. You can experience Toscany food there. Antipasti with truffles is fantastic. Risotto is a very good choice. Fully recommended.

    Fabulous simplicity. One of the best meals we've had during our two weeks in Italy. We started with Carpacio, a very unique presentation which included small bites of lemon, orange, strawberry and pineapple. Sounds odd, but worked wonderfully with the greens and Parmigiano cheese. We next enjoyed spinach ravioli stuffed with potato and topped with ragu. Nothing fancy, but the flavor was fantastic. Finally we had a grilled filet and vegetables. The beef was melt in your mouth tender, but intensely flavorful, having been simply seasoned with salt. I wish we had time to go back to sample more.

    I know Italians love to eat. Portion sizes are huge. Luckily a doggy bag was possible. Love the food. We sat on the little terrace.

    Found this place on google. After we got there we felt it was very touristy and the food was just ok. Also notice the pasta and truffle. It was more pasta with truffle oil with a few truffle flakes on top. It was also the first place we ate in Italy that pointed out that the service fee / tip wasn’t really included. Basically, the waiter asked us for a tip.

    This restaurant was delicious!! The servers were very friendly and attentive. We ordered 1.5kg of the Black Angus florentine steak for two people, at 89 Euro per kg. The grilled veggies and roasted potatoes on the side were fantastic. The panna cotta was also rich and creamy. We had ordered our steak medium rare and half of it came out perfectly, but the rest was overdone. Our server was very gracious to replace the overcooked portion without hesitation and the rest was perfect. Of note, there is a minimum weight of 1.3-1.5kg for the steak, so come hungry! The meal is certainly on the pricier side but the quality is truly excellent. Wish we had the room to try some of the pasta as well!

    Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff but the quality of the food does not correspond to the price. We were strongly recommended to order the fried eggs with truffle as an appetizer, which was a big disappointment for the price. The pasta with duck and truffle was tasty.

    I’ve been traveling with my family for the past few days all over Italy and this was my FAVORITE restaurant out of the 12 or so this has been the best. The setting was intimate so they were focused on the customers they had and not rushing to get to 40 people. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the truffle pasta and Wowow the best pasta I’ve had in Italy. The panda cotta was also amazing. And the server was extremely friendly and personable. Would return any day!

    We were in Florence the week of New Years and previously made a reservation here. I am so glad we did! We experienced a lot of amazing meals in Florence but this was at the top of the list. Our server was wonderful and made beautiful recommendations for us. We had the traditional Florentine steak, the delicious Parma prosciutto, gnocchi, and wild boar ragu. We never felt rushed, only taken care of every step of the way. PERFECTO!! Get the dessert too…Zuccotto alla florentina

    Before our trip my friend found this restaurant and made a reservation here for dinner (highly recommend). We only had one night in Florence and I can definitely say this was the perfect place to give us the ideal Florence dinner. It is a quaint and cozy restaurant with an authentic Florentine feel. We started off with the bruschetta appetizer which was superb, then for dinner my friend had the potato gnocchi with burrata and I had the boar ragù. Each dish was incredibly delicious and a perfect portion size. We ended with the raspberry panna cotta. We could not get over how great the entire meal was from start to finish. What really blew our minds was the final total was only 62 euros. It felt like a $100 dinner in the US. Not to mention they gave us a glass of free champagne before we sat down. 10/10 would recommend.

  • 5/5 Gihan T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good service. Even if the waiters were in the rush because the restaurant was full, they took time to play a bit with the kids and advice us. The food was excellent especially the beef filet. Depending on your choices count on roughly 20-30€/person. I would definitely recommend and come back!! Top address.

    Fantastic restaurant with great service!Recommend making a reservation especially on the weekends. It was a fantastic atmosphere with a very friendly staff. We had the buratta and prosciutto appetizer to start. Followed up with the gnocchi and steak entree. The tiramisu to end the night was also great. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

  • 5/5 Andrew S. 1 year ago on Google
    Stopped by on a whim earlier in the day and checked the menu. It looked promising si we booked a table for 7pm. They did not disappoint. The appetizer, crostini with liver was very good. The mains were delicious and the wine surprised us. I had a steak, not the 1.3kg one mind you... perfectly cooked.. the gnocchi was very light.. all excellent. The service was 4.5 / 5 but that's a good score considering they went from 6 guests to 20 in no time. We would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal at very reasonable pricing. Thank you, Andrew

    I ordered the pistachio crusted lamb and my boyfriend ordered the steak and they were both incredible! Our waiter Damian was very polite and attentive. We will definitely be back! Recommend 10/10!

  • 3/5 Jessica H. 6 months ago on Google
    Mixed feelings: We made a reservation for 8pm and arrived at 8.02pm, the server told us to wait for 10mins but they only sat us AN HOUR later - useless reservation system. (We were not the only ones w a reservation and a long wait) Servers are not efficient at clearing tables and getting ppl in the door. The table bread was tasteless & dry, and the olive oil is weak according to my preference. We ordered Bruschetta as a starter - decent, nothing to shout about. Entrees were good: we ordered the Lamb w Pistachio, Tagliolini w Cheese & Truffle & Duck Ragú Tagliatelle. The Lamb was cooked just right and the pistachio coating was flavorful although the mashed potato purée was tasteless. Duck Ragú Tagliatelle was tasty, but the texture of the duck meat could hv been better - slightly rough. Tagliolini w Truffle was really fragrant and the texture of the pasta was just right for me. I would give them a second chance and maybe come back in the future. If you make a reservation, choose an earlier time and make sure you hv time to spare & some patience.

    I found the best restaurant to drink Tuscan wine. I had a really enjoyable time thanks to Daniel, who speaks Korean well. I was satisfied with both the food and service and hope to visit again next time.

  • 5/5 Vincent M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great restaurant in the historic Centre of Florence. The restaurant is small but the atmosphere is super nice. The local wine, food, and dessert were amazing. Service was good. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Raymond L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service and great food. Probably one of the best crispy beef tongue I've had. The pasta are also amazing.

  • 5/5 Jonathan O. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious food and service with a romantic atmosphere for my girlfriend and I! Must get the burrata appetizer and truffle pecorino pasta! Would go back!

  • 5/5 Megan L. 7 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    This was hands down some of the best food I’ve had in Italy! The atmosphere was lovely and all of the dishes were fantastic. We started with the bruschetta appetizer which was sublime. I ordered the potato gnocchi with burrata which was cooked to perfection. We also split the panacotta which was SO creamy. All for 31 euros a person. The staff was very attentive and even gave us free glasses of champagne while we waited for our table. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
