    Not very nice food at all, although the staff were absolutely lovely and they did deduct money from the bill without us expecting it. So lovely people and maybe we were just unlucky?

    It’s just another tourist spot. Disappointing flexibility and uncharacteristic menu, poor wine offering and lacking Italian chic.

    We love Il Paoli and always include it in our trips to Florence. Historic, cozy setting with wonderful food.

    The atmosphere inside the restaurant, with the painted frescoes and comfortable tables, were the first features we enjoyed seeing. The servers are patient and provided quality recommendations from the menu - the beef with truffles and pate was a standout dish. At the end of the meal, a small gift was included when we paid the cheque. I ate here in February as well for a work dinner, and the food has been reliably excellent.

    The historical setting is so unique to start. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable. There was the option for hot stone serving of the steaks to aide different meat temperature desires for shareable sizes too. Very memorable restaurant.

    I had to pour my wine for myself through out the whole dinner, but I noticed the server served wine properly to the guests of the next table. I really wanted to ask why.

    Antica Ristorante Paoli is a historic landmark. It’s the oldest ristorante in Firenze. It’s beautifully appointed with fresco’s, a coat of arms tile for each commune in Toscana and traditional tuscan cuisine. Definitely worth making a reservation,

    The food was all amazing. Literally did not have one bad bite of food. Our waiter, Amar, was an absolute legend. He was so nice and took time to answer any of our questions. He also had great suggestions for what to order in regards to both food and wine. Would 100% recommend going to this restaurant if you’re in Florence!

    The meat was incredibly tender and delicious without being overwhelming. One T-bone steak and a side dish were enough to satisfy two people.

    They do a hard sale on wines which is sold by small or large bottle only….not by the glass. Saffron risotto came with only four tiny pieces of ossobucco. Very touristy spot..

    A historic interior wraps you in Florentine culture. The chef created some fantastic meals, from the tortellini with ham in cream, to a tartar that was truly divine! Match that with great wines and a server (Emmanuel) and you have a great first night in Firenze! Grazie Mille!!!

    Arrive for our 9pm reservation at 9:30pm was still not seated so was then offered an outside table, just as we sat down it started to rain asked if we could move inside to be told there was no available. So we left without eating or drinking and wasted an hour.
