10/10I first came to Mama Gina's in 1991 on my first trip to Italy and have returned several times since. Last night's meal was just as delicious as the first. We had a delicious starter salad two pasta and an eggplant Parmesan that could not be beat. The service is welcoming and friendly as well as helpful. Put this on your list of places to try And Florence

10/10Interior of the restaurant was appealing. Well-lit and tables appropriately apart. Staff were engaging and efficient. The food was well-seasoned. The house red wine was good.

10/10We loved it here. We are cooks, and love really good pasta and Italian food. I recommend the Tortellacci with truffle, parmesan fondue and chopped Bronte pistachio- honestly one of the best meals I've had in my life! We might even go back again before we leave Florence. Staff was pleasant and gave good recommendations. We shared the meatballs as well, also delicious.
Mamma Gina • Owner
Thank you so much for your wonderful words! We’re truly happy you enjoyed the tortellacci. We’d be delighted to welcome you back before you leave Florence!

7.5/10This restaurant was recommended by a local who said it was “very romantic “ as we were celebrating an occasion. Did not find the ambience romantic at all. The decor is sparse and lighting too bright for an evening meal. Service was ok. We had to ask our server to bring olive oil & ground pepper which should be standard. We arrived when it was empty although filled up later. The food was good but not outstanding.

3/10Terrible food, excessive cover charge (€3.50) and price of drinks (€4 for a cappuccino) to make up for the 30% discount. Dishes were very salty and of poor quality. I was brought a dish which I had not ordered and they also tried to charge me for it at the end of the meal on top of the food I had actually ordered. If you want to eat decent food, I would recommend you avoid this restaurant.

6/10Unfortunately, a 'tourist trap'. Decidedly underwhelming quality of food. Mamma Gina, if still running the place, would be furious.

6/10The booking was made about one month in advance. The table was assigned at the corner of back room, without windows. The service took long to realize that we were there. The food was just disappointing. The place lives around the shadow of its great past.

7.5/10Our waiter was good but didn't understand that I wanted to order the 1-kilo steak, he kept saying No, that is for two people. We had been to this restaurant before and I had ordered the 1 kilo steak the last time. Not sure why he would not let me order it, instead I had to order the smaller steak. The food was delicious, but disappointed that I could not orderthe larger steak.

This was a hidden gem of a restaurant that we were so glad to get a table. Just off the river in Florence it was on a small street within walking distance from many local hotels. The ambience was white tablecloths and polished silver and sparking glassware. Our server was attentive and our entire dinner was excellent. Would highly recommend this for couples or small groups wanting an intimate and cozy dinner. Once you see their front window you know you are in for a special treat. Definitely qualifies for a repeat visit.
