Reviews
When in Florence you MUST have a Florentine steak but there are so many places that sell it, your main decision is where. This location just made that decision much simpler. From the moment we stepped inside, the staff and setting make you feel at home. You are walked through the menu and taken to choose your wine based on what you have ordered. The steak was extraordinary and so was everything that went along with it. Go somewhere else if you just want a steak, come here if you want an experience. 6 stars.
One of only a handful of places my wife and I visited on both our honeymoon and again 7 years later on our most recent visit to Florence. The experience and the food lived up to our memory and even surpassed it. The wine selection is excellent, covering a wide range of local producers and outside regions. We split several dishes which they portioned out for us equally without us having to ask; the two pasta dishes and steak were perfect. This will be the top of the list anytime we return to Florence.
This was the best meal we had on our trip in Italy!! Everything from the antipasto through dessert was absolutely incredible. The service was spectacular and our handsome waiter, Lorenzo, helped us pick the perfect wines. If you want a great meal (farm to table) in Firenze, make a reservation now.
This place is a wine lover’s dream. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and paired local wines with each dish beautifully. I tried the Bistecca alla Fiorentina (Chianina beef) — well cooked and nicely seasoned. I particularly enjoyed the wild boar pasta and the roasted vegetables. The small, cozy interior makes you feel like you’re dining in someone’s home. Definitely one of the best spots for both food and wine in Florence.
I went to this restaurant with two friends after a recommendation, and I really enjoyed our dinner. The food was excellent and high quality. I especially loved my choice of meat with potatoes. The restaurant itself is lovely, situated in a quiet area but still central and easy to access. The staff were very friendly, and our waiter was professional and gave great wine recommendations. I would definitely recommend this place!
