    Unassuming restaurant on a quiet side street, just far enough from the Palazzo Vecchio to avoid the crowds. Varied menu with fantastic seafood dishes if you are tired of the beef centric menus at surrounding restaurants. We had the fried baby octopus app and a 1/2 lobster with pasta special. Both were delicious. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful with food choices and wine selection.

    For the first time in several visits, we were seated in the wine cellar space downstairs. It is much quieter than the upstairs dining area. That’s all an aside to the fantastic food we enjoyed. My parents were not in the mood for too much seafood and deviated from our normal approach which is to have seafood only dishes. Their gnocchi were very good and they enjoyed the sliced beef as a secondo. We all enjoyed the odd sounding but delicious Cod meatballs as an appetizer. Highly recommend eating here. It’s a little pricier than other locations, but the price remains a good value due to the excellent quality and presentation.

    Came by accident as was getting tired of similar meat focused menus each night so looked for a local seafood place. It is small but very welcoming and all the food we had was excellent. For its price it was probably the best meal we had to Florence and certainly the most authentic.

    What a great little find. Looking for seafood in Florence is not the easiest task. Owners take pride in this hidden gem. Every seat was taken at opening at 7:00. So glad I was able to have a great meal.

    My experience at this place was truly exceptional—the best I've had in years. Every aspect, from the delectable food to the attentive service, was utterly spot-on. Despite our tardiness due to the challenges of finding parking in Florence - IFYKYK - the entire staff warmly welcomed us and remained helpful throughout our visit. I wish I had discovered this gem sooner and could relive this marvelous evening. Rest assured, I will return next year without a doubt! Keep up the fantastic work in sharing the authentic and enchanting essence of Tuscany, even amidst the bustling city. You all are incredible! 🙏🏼🫶🏼✨️

    We had a lovely dinner at Cantinetta Delle Terme. Very nice service. Excellent food. Super good value for money. We would definitely recommend it. I had the pasta with crab and seeing other peoples food made it look like I would love to go there again to try more dishes.

    Excellent in every way- the food was outstanding, a seafood-forward restaurant in meat loving Florence, and the service was great. Terrific wine list and close to everything but away from the crowd. Highly recommend.

    Found this restaurant on the fork and had an excellent lunch for two. Excellent seafood dishes (pasta with cod, and lunch special pasta with crab.) The dessert was also excellent. Interestingly enough half of the guests seemed to be locals which added to the character.

    Great restaurant! Every food item was not only excellent quality but also presented well. We were seated downstairs which was surprisingly cozy and charming. Our server was great with solid recommendations on food items and wine. This was the best restaurant we dined at while in Florence. Highly recommend!

    My experience at Cantinetta delle Terme has been extraordinary. From the first day I went the service was amazing. Vikram made us feel welcome and every dish we ordered was tasteful and very well presented. There are many restaurants in Florence, but i have noticed the smaller the place the better you will eat. I love how every dish is made while you ordered nothing is pre made which makes every dish incrediable delicious and fresh. From the foil fish to the any pasta you will be delitghed.

    We had booked this before coming to Firenze on holiday. Easy style, not too smart but the quality of the food was easily the best we had on our visit. Both of us had 2 courses and pudding which were all amazing. Nice Chianti Riserva by the glass too. A great meal and if we were ever there again we would go straight there.

    My family and I loved Cantinetta delle Terme on our recent visit to Florence. It was out of the main tourist streets but still very convenient and close for us. The ambience was great, service was attentive and the food was excellent! We. All loved our meals and would highly recommend this little gem!

    Our second time dining here. By far the best food we've had in over two weeks in Italy. The tuna is exquisite with a marvelous pistachio crust. The octopus appetizer is lovely and the chocolate dessert is to die for. A small, unpretentious restaurant where the food does all the talking.

    Lovely restaurant with wonderful food and staff!! Highly recommend! Prices are very reasonable and portions are good! We split and appetizer of fried baby squid and for the main course we shared the Pistaccio encrusted tuna and the pasta and clams. All were delicious. We were too full for desert but the table next to us had cheese cake and they said it was amazing. Enjoy!
