10/10The most delicious freshest pasta one could possibly get - each dish is it's own treat! One meal is simply not enough. Frequented by locals. Husband and wife run. Warm friendly atmosphere - child friendly. There are many fantastic food options in Florence, but this should be top of the list.

10/10Dory and Mauro serve their diners from their hearts. Fresh pasta is a hit. We came back for the ravioli and the oil, garlic and chilli flavour was also bombastic! My son (10 years old) enjoyed his fried chicken and chips, his time watching Dory cook, playing in the kid-friendly area and being well-looked after in this family-run restaurant. Even though we only had 3 nights in Florence our son made us go back there to enjoy their hospitality and excellent food again! Grazie mille!!!

10/10The service was fantastic—appropriately attentive. Our meals were delicious—light pasta, with wild boar, tomatoes and the ravioli were all outstanding. House wine was great and desserts were a real treat. Cannot wait to return!!

10/10This hidden gem was recommended to us by a local… and we’re so thankful she did! All four of us had fresh, delicious meals… starting with tuscan appetizers, and enjoying hand made ravioli with we were able to watch being prepared through the glass window. The prosseco and wine were very good, and all the pasta dishes arrived hot and perfectly cooked. The owner handles everything in the restaurant, serving tables, handling reservations, delivering the delicious plates that were prepared just right… ALL with a friendly smile! This is a superb family establishment not to miss! Thank you for a top memory for us, from Firenze!

10/10Excellent choice for dinner for our last night in Florence. Family-run restaurant with delectable dishes. We went to so many places for dinner each night but the best thing I can say is that I will definitely return to have the garlic, red pepper pasta!!

7.5/10Good meal! Ambience a little quirky. It is very much a local family operation, with a small living room at the front with a child playing, very sweet. No music playing so good for conversation. I recommend this place for famllies with children, and people that want to talk without noise. Not hip or gentrified, this is an original place. Goos food, and good prices.

5.5/10Very good pasta, OK ambiance and middling service. You could go here if you were close by. Dinner with a split appetizer, two pasta dishes and a good bottle of house red was a reasonable 50 euro.

8/10The pasta dishes are excellent (although i personally didnt care for the cinghiale ragu, which I’d never had before), thr wine choices also excellent, but the contorni—spinaci and fagioli all’olio for us—were below average, well below (both tasted canned, actually, plus the portions were tiny). I LOVE the people there, tho’, and the atmosphere. Well worth a visit!

10/10This restaurant was run by family and absolutely hit it out of the park with the quality of the food, the ambience, and the friendly staff. We had the pasta with Ragu, fantastic, grilled chicken, and steak. All or superior served with a smile, and the wine was fantastic in the pictures. Can't wait to return

10/10We’ve been in Italy for almost three weeks. This was the BEST pasta experience we had. The wide pasta with house sauce was completely insane. Other dishes were all delicious. You could see the pasta being made - could not be more fresh! People were awesome, food was outstanding, the experience was unforgettable. If we make it back to Florence, we will make it back here for dinner. Grazie mille!!!

This little restaurant was a great find! The staff were super welcoming and the service was superb. I really liked the small details, like how the dishes were presented and the Mediterranean atmosphere. We'll definitely go again.

10/10This little restaurant was so inviting when we walked by earlier in the day and saw the proprietor making pasta in the window that we immediately made a reservation for that evening and we were not disappointed!! A little off the more people-y path but still central Oltranano, quaint and family-run, friendly and of course, the food was delicious!
