    They have a cozy and large space with lots of seats. The staff were very friendly and willing to help. The food delivery was very fast and convenient. They have very good selection of foods and drinks with affordable prices . We went twice during our stay in Florence. I ordered chicken steak which was very soft and well cocked. I highly recommend this place.

    Love this place! The food is great and the price is slightly below average in the "touristic area". It seemed that many locals visit this restaurant. The lasagna and "home" wine are great.

    It was our first day in Florence and we really enjoyed having dinner in this restaurant. The pizzas are really good, the waitress recomended us the burrata and ham pizza. It was absolutely delicious. Lola, the waitress is so kind, professional and friendly, taking care of every detail to make you feel like at home. We decided to come back on our last night just because of her and the delicious pizza, of course.

    Amazing food, the steak is alright. The service is exceptional. Pasta is amazing, highly recommended restaurant. I’m editing that review because I have tried another Steak place (Very popular in Florence) it wasn’t good, if you had Mastro’s steak in the states (NY, LA) you will understand. Finally I think that restaurant is amazing stick with pizza and pasta.

    Staff was nice. Recommended nice wine. The food was OK, but there are definitely other (better) options. On the other hand, the lasagna matches the expectation of what you paid for (10 euros).

    Spaghetti carbonara was great, pizza was good but not the best, up to italian standards. It's a nice spot for affordable dinner and nice house wines. A downside would be the music playing inside of the restaurant

    We recently had dining at this restaurant and I must say, the grilled chicken was fantastic! The taste was exquisite and left me thoroughly satisfied. The warm welcome and excellent hospitality from the staff added to the wonderful experience. Whether it was lunch or dinner, the quality of service remained top-notch. Even during the busy lunch hours, the service remained efficient and speedy. The added bonus of air conditioning was a lifesaver in the scorching heat of Florence. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delightful dining experience.

    Amazing food and fast service at a good price. The starter Bruschetta with Buratta was delicious (normally has 4 pieces but you can ask for more if you're not 8 people for example). The Pumkin Risotto with the Burrata was amazing and so was the Shrimp pasta. The chicken was once again incredibly tender and juicy. 2nd visit. Would come again if we were staying longer.

    А quiet and peaceful place near the Uffizi Gallery. The staff is very friendly and responsive. The food is delicious and at reasonable prices. I recommend it for eating and relaxing. We will gladly come back again.

  • 5/5 Anugrah T. 5 months ago on Google • 10 reviews
    Had amazing Italian style Pork Ribs and Spaghetti alla Carbonara here, everything was so rich and delicious. The chicken however was not to liking, felt bland, overall worth eating and will come again

    Amazing Risotto!!! I went to the restaurant for two days, a must in florence. The waiter Lola was very kind and helpful to us all the time. She gave us amazing recommendations. We will definitely come back!

  • 5/5 Wenzy F. 9 months ago on Google
    Overall the place was excellent. The wine was great and we had so much fun drinking in this calm atmosphere. The pizza was by far the best one we've had with great dough and it was not chewy. The pasta was perfectly cooked with great balanced flavors. The staff was focused and polite since they made sure that all the food was cooked well and delivered on time. We definitely recommend this place for a visit and do not forget to try there pizza and wine.

    This was the last restaurant we ate at in Flotence, and it was one of the best. The ribs were great, as expected, but I was really blown away by the potatoes. They were much better than I thought they would be and were really the highlight of the meal. The tiramisu was great, as is every tiramisu in Italy. Our waitress was very nice, as well.

  • 5/5 Nick B. 10 months ago on Google
    We had pizza and pasta and they were realy tasty and with quality products. Typical Italian style pizza dough and very tasty. The pasta was ok. Nice decoration. Quick service.

  • 4/5 Vidhya P. 1 year ago on Google
    It did take awhile to get someone to take our order and for the food to come. It was nice food but I think compared to the other restaurants I had eaten at this weekend in Florence It wasn't the best. My ravioli was nice, but the boys weren't that impressed with their pizzas. The bar for italian food in florence is very high so I think it just wouldn't be our favourite out of all the options we have had. It is decently priced and lovely atmosphere!

  • 3/5 melissa k. 11 months ago on Google
    Pizza was good with a nice crust, however the carbonara was a letdown. It was clumpy and dry, completely different from the pictures in the other reviews for this restaurant. Asked the waitress about it and she said it was normal. They took €3 off my bill, so good service recovery attempt for the manager. Service is subpar, asked for a coke but it didn’t come.

  • 3/5 Rahil M. 10 months ago on Google
    I ordered a grilled pork ribs with potatoes. The ribs were burnt, so the taste was not really good. The potato was very fresh and tasty. I ordered a 1/2 homemade wine, which is not advisable too. Take something else to drink. Overall, the atmosphere was nice and the waiter was kind and supportive.

  • 5/5 Jon J. 1 year ago on Google
    Ate here a few times while visiting Florence. Great good, fair prices, good service. Highly recommend eating here. Very close to the Duomo.

  • 4/5 Nic B. 1 year ago on Google
    Busy, friendly restaurant. I ordered lasagna and roasted potatoes. Very tasty. Perfect sized portion. Reasonable price. Fast, friendly service.

  • 5/5 Bartosz S. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious pizzas and the restaurant open during the siesta time. We were quite hungry and looked for a nearby restaurant to have dinner. Some were already closed, but this one wasn't and good that we came by. The pizzas were fantastic. Aperol Spritz too. The waiter was very helpful and smiling. Really home like atmoshepere. Air conditioning also cooled us down so all in all it was a good choice to visit Gusto Leo. Not many people at around 4pm, but dont hesitate and give it a try. You won't regret it.

  • 5/5 Viktor A. 1 year ago on Google
    Tasty pizza, with cold drinks... can only recommed!!!

  • 2/5 Liubov 1. 2 years ago on Google
    Tasteless underripe tomatoes and too old mozzarella (tight and not juicy) Too salty and sour vegetable soup, can’t even eat it, very disappointed.

  • 5/5 slav8224 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely loved this place, came here for 3 nights in a row ) Great food - pasta, pizza, the best house wine ( literally the best), very friendly and hard working stuff. Every time we were seated and served fast despite how busy the restaurant was. After several very disappointing places we were extremely happy to find this gem in the heart of Florence! And the prices are very reasonable! The menu is extensive for everu taste, will come back once again in Florence!

  • 5/5 Riley Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Great stop with great food. Not too far off from everything you want to see. Recommended to friends who also enjoyed their experience there.

  • 5/5 Karan D. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good experience, we ordered 2 pizzas and 2 beers and one pizza takeaway. The chef made them all from fresh dough in front of us. Would visit again

  • 4/5 Brisippus 2 years ago on Google
    Stopped by because it was really close to our hotel. No wait to be seated, friendly hostess and waiter. We had two pizzas(Margherita & spiced salami), water, beer, and cappuccinos and the check was only €23 or so. Really reasonable prices for a touristy area. Both pizzas were good, thin and crispy with a little char, the spiced salami was a little better overall and had a decent kick.

  • 4/5 Ken S. 1 year ago on Google
    Don't let the front of this place fool you. The right half is a pizza take out/away & bar, but the left side is the real deal with no pretension but excellent food (had tortellini with prosciutto along with Caprese salads) served promptly by a very courteous waiter (wish I got his name) who was also attentive. And, it's priced right! Not nearly as expensive as some other restaurants we visited in Florence.

  • 4/5 Veronika W. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    Great food and atmosphere. I, personally didn’t choose the right pizza for me( because of the tomato sauce) but it was still delicious! Also prices are reasonable for the location of the restaurant. Definitely recommend taking the tiramisu😋

  • 5/5 Carmen L. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    We had a great time here tonight! Ordered the lasagna and the margarita pizza. Food all tasted amazing and was reasonably priced as well. Heads up, the lasagna isn’t a huge slice to North American standards so if you’re starving maybe opt for something else ◡̈ We were served by Ina and he was so welcoming! Highly recommend
