The minestrone soup was grey and hugely overcooked, probably been boiling for several days and the main course beef stew and mashed potatoes was cold, they reheated it but the mash was sloppy and inedible. I am afraid it was the worst meal I have had in a very long time.

Diner food, diner service, diner ambiance, meaning, not bad but nothing special. Just a place to eat, nothing more. They solicit you for a tip in writing at the bottom of the check. Not an experience worth having if you are after a memorable meal in Florence.

The ambience, the service were wonderful. The food was good. We had a lovely evening with friends who had never been to Florence and they were very happy with the food and service.

To improve , the restaurant needs to get rid of the Head of Service & some of the waiters. A customer does not expect to hear a Front of House Maitre de sounding off and smashing bottles & glasses behind a screened off area out of sight but within hearing distance to customers. My wife ordered Veal & Mushrooms, she got Veal & Lemon Sauce. I ordered Chicken Slices with NO Cheese, I got Chicken with Shaved Cheese. Wine was way overpriced. €109 . Do yourself a favour…dont book…& food was not hot

Disappointing Christmas Day Meal We booked this restaurant for Christmas Day, hoping for a festive and relaxing meal after a day of sightseeing. Upon arrival, we asked to be seated inside, as there were several empty tables. However, we were directed to the glass-enclosed outdoor area, which was acceptable but not ideal. After sitting for about 5-7 minutes, we asked the waiter for the menu, and his response was a loud sigh, as if he was reluctant to serve us. This felt rude and unprofessional. The Florentina Scotta steak was the highlight of the meal—tender and flavorful. The tomato soup was not your typical soupy-style soup,carbonara pasta was just okay—nothing remarkable. Service was slow throughout the meal, and while the atmosphere was decent, it lacked the festive charm we had hoped for on Christmas Day. Overall, the service and seating experience were disappointing, especially for such a special occasion.Wouldn't rush to come back

"We had the pleasure of dining at La Bistecca - Osteria Fiorentina, and the experience was absolutely unforgettable! The quality of the meat was simply extraordinary, cooked to perfection to enhance the authentic flavors of Florentine cuisine. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive, making every moment pleasant and relaxing. The cozy and traditional atmosphere of the restaurant made us feel at home, with a touch of elegance that made everything even more special. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic culinary experience in the heart of Florence. We can’t wait to return!"

The service guys were quite different. One was very quiet and distanced, sometimes stressed and a bit angry, the other one always pretended to be my best friend, but in a very unauthentic way… The food was good and the ambiance to!

The traditional bisteca and Chianti wine were delicious. We also had gnocchi, lasagne, spaghetti bolognese and fiorentina pizza, all of which were not at par with what we’ve eaten at other restaurants.
