9.5/10The staff were so warm and welcoming and happy to engage. The food choices were well explained and good suggestions offered. It was a really hot evening and they offered us a cooler place to sit near the rear of the cozy restaurant. Dabarba is a lovely little spot!

10/10We arrived 15 minutes late for our reservation and our table had been given away, yet the restaurant still found a way to accommodate us. A welcome glass of Prosecco was a lovely treat. The food was delicious and I loved the decor and ambience.

10/10The excellent food and lovely ambiance always make for a lovely experience at Dabarba! The fish is consistently excellent ~ the dishes are not overly complicated and the tastes are simply fresh and divine! I feel as if I’ve found a secret gem along the Arno!

10/10I don’t do many reviews but the food and service here was the best ever! So many places in Florence are good but the menus are all so similar. This is different- the menu is more creative- fusion of Italian and other flavors/ ingredients with lots of very fresh options, especially seafood, they even have gluten free options. . Ambience is great - small venue along the river with outdoor seating and a more personal chef owned feel. You will love it. Food is second to none. Try the avocado seafood salad - it’s really amazing as are the clams and catch of the day … !!!

10/10My friend recommended this restaurant, and I am so glad I came! You get a personalized experience and each dish was delicious and unique. The bread was also amazing! I would highly recommend you come here! I ordered the prawn and avocado salad, seafood pasta and tiramisu with a lovely white wine as recommended :)

10/10Had cucumber salad and sea food salad, gnocchi and tagliolini with truffles. Flavors were amazing! Everything was so fresh and tasty. Tiramisu was tasty but not the best we have ever had so concentrate on the entrees. Service was excellent.

10/10Loved our meal! Sit outside along the Arno! The cucumber salad was delicious and a nice change of pace from typical Italian food! My seafood pasta was very good as well. It was probably the best service we had in Florence.

10/10We've been coming to Florence for many years, and it's getting harder and harder to find a restaurant that's not just an overpriced tourist trap. THIS IS THE PLACE! The view is breathtaking. The design is beautiful and refreshingly modern. The service was beyond excellent. But most importantly, the food was simply perfect: refined, fresh, authentic, and with a delightfully modern twist. Definitely our new favourite restaurant in Florence. Thank you, Francesco et al, for an unforgettable evening. Alla prossima!

10/10Dabarba is incredibile, I live in Florence for 4 years and have finally found a restaurant I truly love. You can tell there is an authentic dedication for natural and fresh products, all put together to create an amazing meal. Every plate will astonish you! Complements to the chef and complements to Francesco Barba, the owner who envisioned this magical place on the river! Grazie ragazzi, sapete che ritornerò presto!

10/10This is second visit to Dabarba on our 3 night visit to Florence. Owner to the servers, all are fabulous. Not only the service but the food is fantastic. Not a large menu but everything we tried were terrific. We would definitely come back here on our next trip to Florence. There is no visible sign that we saw, except for the large sign inside the restaurant so trust the Google Maps directions. It is worth the visit.

10/10What a fantastic find it was. There is no sign outside and we almost missed it. Very cute restaurant with outdoor seating but it was too cold so we sat inside, the food was the beat meal we had during our Italian vacation and the made to order Tiramisu was divine! It was so good we made another reservation.

10/10As we walked into the restaurant we were handed a glass of Prosecco , this was just what we needed after walking 4 hours in the Uffizi . The food was amazing, the decor stylish and the staff friendly. We enjoyed it so much we booked for lunch for the next day !

10/10Great restaurant, where you can experience delicious dishes in a truly lovely and classy atmosphere. Yet again, this is not a "high-end-wannabe" place, everything is real here, from good food to relaxed mood to the soft acoustic music. This is my way for a truly romantic dinner, the real deal, As you my expect from a top restaurant in Florence, Italy, oh yes.
