8/10Good tasty food , nice ambience and efficient service. Just disturbed by staff too “colloquial” : saying “ciao” when I entered and addressed me and my wife with “tu” : this is offensive in Italy and made me feel uneasy. I have answered “Buonasera” and addressed with “lei”. Still, when I left, a staff member addressed me with “ciao”. “Ciao” and “tu” is always wrong outside intimate relations and it is openly offensive in public places. It could be standard in a low standard place such a Mac Donald. Unacceptable in a refine and expensive restaurant. I recommend the director to address the issue: it is simple (the staff were attentive and pro active and therefore I am sure they are willing to learn) and the result will be impactful. For the rest, I recommend the place: as I wrote, the food was good, the wine excellent and the service fast and attentive.

9/10Excellent service. Good ambience in a comfortable well presented restaurant. Fine quality food and good portion size. A nice menu selection of both food and wine. I would recommend Ammalia to others.

9/10Ammalia has a unique menu that you can’t find at any old restaurant. I came here while on vacation and was happy to see a different twist on familiar dishes as well as unique ones. Everything was prepared very well. I do t understand why it wasn’t more crowded - maybe because it was a Tuesday at 9:30pm.

6.5/10The restaurant is very pretty but the music is an odd mix of pop which don’t go together. The food was mixed. I had a pasta dish with egg yolks, artichoke, truffle and hazelnuts which was delicious. My partner had the sea bass with mash and vegetables. The mash potato was so salty it wasn’t edible. We told the server and the kitchen made it again but the potato was just as salty which was very disappointing. The crème brûlée was good but the ‘tiramisu’ was not tiramisu at all. It was dry chocolate cake bites with a custard cream on top - no coffee. They should definitely have a classic tiramisu and then call the other dessert chocolate cake. The cocktail we had was very good and had an interesting flavour profile. So as I said, very mixed experience!

10/10Absolutely one of the best dining experiences I have had in Florence in all the many years I’ve been here. We now live here and look forward to coming back to Ammalia. Simply perfection from the beautiful setting of the restaurant to the magnificent food and the superb service.

8.5/10It is a very eclectic menu with a number of interesting and tasteful options. Our only negative view was that the dining room was very cold, which made the experience somewhat uncomfortable.

5/10Super stylish restaurant and cute garden, but food was very very disappointing. It was the strangest eggplant parmigiana I ever had. The restaurant was empty which proved justified. Too bad as looks like a great place to hang out at.
Ammalia Restaurant and Lounge • Owner
Hello Tanya, thank you for your compliments on our stylish and cute garden. As stated on the menu, our eggplant parmigiana is AMMALIA STYLE. Our own interpretation. If you were confused, I would have hoped you would say something. From my understanding, no plates were returned that night, no complaints were made. If you had an issue with a plate, things could be remedied. We could replace it. So, if there was an issue and no one knows about it until after, what can be done? As you stated, you sat in the garden. Which has 6 tables. Those can be empty if people sit inside on a chilly night. You may think the restaurant is empty but but that is because you are missing the rush of 45 tables indoors.

10/10Very well taken care of with a personable staff that wanted to give us a "romantic" table (outside with fellow international dining neighbors). We weren't bothered at all about anything and left to eat at our own pace - because it's a healthy portion!

10/10My girlfriend and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary together in Ammalia. We had a fabulous time outside in the courtyard. Florentine steak was amazing. Highly recommend.
