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!!!

10/10This 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!

10/10Cosy, family run restaurant with home made pasta, sauces and perfectly prepared Florentine steak. The atmosphere is lively and friendly, the service personable and efficient. The panne cotta is superb. The food excellent. A great place with a good wine list.

10/10Wonderful little restaurant - great service and pasta made fresh on site. Everything you want in an Italian pasta meal - all about quality raw ingredients and letting them sing!

10/10A very friendly, casual restaurant serving the very best pasta! We enjoyed a good range of antipasti with great quality cold cuts, then each one of their hand made pastas (pici, ravioli and pappardelle with their house sauce). All of it was utterly superb and we didn’t leave a single piece, despite being full - just too good to waste! Thought I was the only one who loved tiramisu but my family decided to ‘help’ me! Highly recommended and big thanks to the restaurant for a truly delicious and memorable meal!

10/10We've been in Florence for a week already and this is the best meal we've had yet. It's the meal we've been waiting to have. Literally everything was delicious. The pastas we're fantastic, including the spaghetti with garlic, oil, and peppers and the pappardelle with the house sauce (which was an intoxicatingly good), the grilled and fried chicken were amazing, the crostiini, etc. All of it, just delicious. Plus, the service was excellent and friendly, and you can watch the chef and her assistant preparing the food while you wait. Hands down, the most memorable meal we've had and we've already made reservations for two nights from now. :-)

10/10Excellent food and service! We were a bit surprise to see that the place is a little hidden but once entering there, we were really good taken care of. The food was very/ very good! We had some starters: bruschetta and a soup than I took pasta, and my husband took a stake. Everything was delicious and the food was fresh and fast brought to us.. Not to mention that the prices were fear :)

8.5/10I loved the family atmosphere and great food! Well priced . Unfortunately , no vegetable/salad options . Waiter/owner was very efficient considering he was serving alone. Nice out-of-the way spot.

10/10Cute place, food was flawless, owner/waiter was friendly, professional, and welcoming. It's a husband and wife operation, where she is hand-making pasta in the window when you walk in, and there are displays of chianti bottles and quirky art everywhere, and he just carries you through the meal. We will be back before we leave Florence, and again when we next return.
