10/10What a special dinner for our last night in Florence! Gabriel was a great host- he explained all of the amazing dishes on the menu and chose a perfect and delicious wine for us. The duck was one of the best duck dishes we have ever had. I highly recommend a visit to his restaurant!

9.5/10Friendly welcome by the owner, I had pre- booked and indicated that I am vegetarian - he talked me through the options on the menu. Attentive service and beautifully presented food, which tasted fantastic. Great care is obviously taken over the menus and the rustic, but classy, decor of the restaurant. As a lone traveller on the first night of my holiday I really enjoyed the experience of eating at B.o.r.g.o. and it was a such a lovely start to my time in Florence.

10/10What a wonderful find. Small and friendly restaurant with a warm and charismatic owner. Beautifully curated menu bursting with flavour despite the dishes having a simple and stripped back appearance. An absolute must if you enjoy an intimate atmosphere with an attentive host and inventive but honest food that has been lovingly prepared and sourced.

Dearest Victoria thank you so much for your visit and for these beautiful words!!!! So happy to learn that sometimes I can transfer my passion to those who decide to have dinner at Borgo! Hope to welcoming you again bye Gabriele

10/10Gabriele, what a fantastic character. Absolutely Love what this restaurant is doing and achieving. Compared with the hundreds of other eateries in Florence this stood out as remarkable. The food was excellent and different, everything we ordered was one of those (oh wow, this is good , Quiet savouring moments where you just nod in acceptance to each other. It was amusing as everyone else in the place was doing the same thing. We want to go back again and again. If you are in Florence , You should too. Good value, Honest service.

10/10It's hard to think of what a better dining experience could have been. The attention to every detail in an intimate, relaxed, and slightly bohemian restaurant is second to none. The chef/owner Gabriele brings passion and creativity to every dish he creates with flavours that are original but never overpowering. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we came back for a second meal in three nights of our four in Florence. This is a place not to be missed on your visit. If you want a special meal that breaks away from the standard fare found at most central Florence spots - this is IT. Grazie mille Gabriele!

10/10We adored Borgo — easily our favorite meal after three days in Florence. The space is small and simple, more like a hip vintage apartment than a restaurant, and the vibe is just as intimate. The owner/chef/baker/waiter is both fun and attentive, and his passion for food is palpable. Though I eat meat, my partner and I shared three vegetarian dishes tonight — all of them excellent. The standout was the linguine with burnt onion sauce, licorice powder, and spring onion oil — one of the most creative and delicious pasta dishes I’ve ever had. Bravo to the Borgo team — this place is truly a gem!

10/10In a city full of tourist traps and average dining, this place is a gem! Passionate chef / owner whose enthusiasm for his dishes shines through. All three courses were fantastic, particularly the homemade pasta. Please take the effort to walk 5 mins away from the centre and get a genuine experience.

10/10This was our favorite meal during our 10 nights in Italy. We loved everything about this restaurant, from the cozy atmosphere to the amazing food and wonderful service-- truly an experience and not just a dinner. Although I am not a vegetarian, I appreciated that there were plenty of options if you wanted to have a vegetarian meal. The chef/owner has perfected his art, and the only negative is we spent the rest of our trip comparing every meal to this one!

10/10Great intimate dinner experience. Warm welcome from the host in cosy dining area. Comfortable setting for a date with some fun decor choices ;-) Now for the food, so refreshing to see both BORGO’s mission statement and menu. Finally a place that uses local and seasonal ingredients and delivers it on a tailored menu. Very nice change from the washed out standard menu. Each dish was made with love and very well executed, perfectly delivering the autumn flavors. Thank you for the passion and nice recipe twists that made our dinner a great pleasure.
