Food and service was great. The wild boar sauce was very tasty. The zucchini flowers were okay, but the stuffed olives were delicious.

This restaurant was everything we hoped for. Great food, old world ambience and a friendly and courteous staff. The Tapas and main dishes are all homemade so expect a little waiting time, which afforded us to enjoy the local wines. This is a true gem… we will be back!! Thank you Silvia!!!!!

Great little restaurant in Florence. Staff is very friendly and can speak a little bit of French and English. Take your time if you go there, the service is a little bit slow but the wait is worth it because the food is delicious. Would recommend ! The meat balls are excellent as appetizers!

Service was exceptional. Very nice wait staff. Food was mediocre. The pici with boar ragu was not that great. The orange ravioli was nice. The tapas were all good but nothing special. Based on other reviews my expectations were high and were not met.

The atmosphere is nice and the prices are great. The food, however, was average. Be careful not to over order as the portions are huge and service is quite slow.

Amazing little place we stumbled upon the day before. It looked very quaint and the food sounded amazing. It did not disappoint! We couldn't get in at a time we liked for dinner so went for lunch. The service was spot on and the staff very accommodating. They helped pick out a glass of wine that went perfectly with our pasta dish. I would not hesitate to go back and recommend this charming place to anyone. Food was out of this world good.

Elegant food in rustic setting. Loved the small plate options unusual for Italy. Close to Santa Croce on a quiet street, the house wine options were quite good and nice variety of small plate options allowed a lot of samples.

Authentic place, everything is homemade including the wine. The wine came at a perfect temperature. Also, the restaurant offers unique and delicious dishes. E.g., the spinach dumplings, and red tuna tartare.

Great restaurant but one dish (duck) was too salty. The ravioli and croquettes were our favorites. The pork tenderloin was also good. Garden area had a few mosquitoes.

What a wonderful dining experience! All of the food was great but the grilled octopus served with gazpacho was exceptional, as was the tagliata with pecorino and apples in a balsamic sauce. The wine list was extremely well-chosen and they have a number of impressive wines available by the glass. The service was superlative. Our waiter could provide detailed description of each dish and he was genuinely friendly.

A very congenial place. There are many tapas offered which is nice if you don’t want to eat too much and there were really good pork offerings which is a nice change from all the “bistecca”. The music was light and non intrusive. I would recommend it. It was easy to find.

We thoroughly enjoyed a quiet, peaceful dinner there in a lovely area of the city. We had the ravioli and gnocchi as well as the pork and tiny meatballs and also roasted potatoes. That was plenty for two, followed by the sinful double chocolate mousse. One of our favorite meals on this trip to Italy. Don’t hesitate to try it for a change of pace.

The service was fabulous, our waitress was congenial and attentive. The dishes are the perfect portion size for food packed with such robust flavor, each flavor note creating a symphony in one's mouth. Our meal culminated with a heavenly lemon tiramisu, which elicited an unheard of remark from my companion that "this is the best I've ever had, let's have another."

Been here twice in the past 1.5 years. Always seem to do the tapas. Great food, wine and service. Rustic Chianti decor. A place where we will always come back for casual, rustic late night fare.
