    The staff were friendly, polite and helpful. The food and service were so good we returned for a second night. The bruschetta, pasta and salad we tried were all delicious.

    We couldn’t decide on what we wanted to de decided to order a lot. Everything was amazing. The Lasagna was our favorite, but the Gnocci, mussels, and carbonara were fantastic as well.

    Okay. But really doesn’t deserve its great reviews for gluten free pizza. My base was very bready and I’ve had much better elsewhere.

    Welcoming, lovely waiting staff. Food was safe to eat as a coeliac and the restaurant was able to provide gluten-free and milk-free, which was great. We both had pizza and they were nice, but not exceptional. Good to know that we'd eaten safely though.

    We have been there more than a few times and all the servers are excellent! The food, breakfast, lunch and dinner, is some of the best we have had in Italy (this is our 7th visit over 4 decades)! The prices may be just a little more expensive than comparable restaurants; however, when factoring in everything mentioned above, definitely affordable. Highly recommended!

    After three days and 6 restaurants in Venice and Florence, this was THE BEST! Friendly staff, fresh/high quality food, beautiful setting. We are strongly considering a return tomorrow.

    The food was very good and reasonably priced for Florence. Our group of 6 was seated next door to the restaurant in their bar. Ambiance was lacking and service was rather inattentive. Food came out piecemeal and for those of us sharing the Florentine steak, we didn’t even get eating plates, but had to make do with the side plates. Hope they do a better job in the main dining room.

    Food was great. Service was even better. Price was great for the quality of the food. Other places are over priced for pasta. Average prices was 10 £

    Perfectly located on a little street just off the Piazza del Duomo, with beautiful views of the Duomo in the background. Food was exquisite and set the bar high for the rest of the trip! Service was friendly and attentive! Prices were perfect! We will definitely go back here next time we’re in Florence!

    The carbonara we had was pretty dry but the other items were very good. It was a Sunday evening and they were pretty busy. I'd give them another try. Nice variety on the menu.

    The staff was friendly and most importantly the food was very tasty. I had the spaghetti with seafood and red sauce and hubby had the lasagna w/ pesto sauce. Location is perfect by the Cathedral, Duomo Museum and Baptistery. Will recommend to family & friends when visiting Florence! Gracie mille!

    Good food but I was expecting a bit more based on previous reviews. Enjoyed the variety of the menu and all the portions were good size. We had excellent service with a great wine recommendation.

    Diego and Maria were fantastic, making us feel at home. The food was great, as well as the ambiance and service. We can't wait to get back to Firenze and eat again at Buca Niccolini!

    We booked on the fork and as soon as we arrived we have been brought to a nice outside table. The waitresses, Sunny and Eleonora especially, have been amazing, kind, available and efficient. We had pizzas and some pasta. One person is gluten intolerant and we have been positively surprised by the amazing options for gluten free food. Overall the pizzas were all great, amazing dough and condiments, the gel item free pizza was amazing too. Pasta was perfectly cooked and al dente, as it should be. A highly recommended restaurant with a duomo view.

    We had a wonderful dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The dishes were perfect, from the appetizer to dessert. The famous bistecca fiorentina is a must-order! We highlight the efficient and humorous service provided by Esaue, Alba and Arianna. We will certainly be back on our next trips to Firenze!

    Delicious food and great service. Nice place in a central location. There are plenty of vegetarian options which are handily labelled as such.

    A perfect late lunch in a hot & very busy Florence. Both wine and food was fantastic... and great gluten free choice.The view of the Cathedral wasn't half bad either. Thoroughly recommend.
