Using the discount made the meal extremely good value. The meat portion was very generous, tender, and absolutely satisfying. One of the staff members was very friendly and even spoke a few Japanese phrases, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Server was excellent. Been there 10 years. Cant recall his name. Great fun though. Mauritzio perhaps? Food was excellent. Ambience was decent. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

It sounds like a really enjoyable dining experience! Fried food paired with pizza is already satisfying, but adding bamboo shoots as a topping is a nice touch—bamboo shoots have such a crisp texture, and I can imagine how they would complement the cheese and sauce on the pizza. Dining outdoors, chatting and eating at a leisurely pace, sounds like the perfect way to unwind. What kind of setting were you in? Was it a cozy café in a little alley, or perhaps an outdoor space with greenery? The atmosphere must have made it even more memorable.

I was worried about the notorious(kidding) fame of bistecca florentina like how chewy they could be, but this restaurant totally broke my wrong bias. T-bone was perfect and risotto/pasta were also countable in my trip.

We had a family lunch there and everyone enjoyed their meal. Very welcoming place and very interesting menu. Gluten free options are available. I particularly liked the olive oil - it is so aromatic!

I have booked at the very last minute. The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is a typical Italian trattoria. Food is delicious, and the selection on the menu, since the restaurant is not huge, is impressive. I reccommend the restaurant.

We arrived at 10pm and the staff (old French lady) didn’t know we booked via the app (the restaurant offered booking until 10:30pm the latest) and was very unfriendly to us. Almost didn’t want to let us in. The Florentine steak was very tough in texture. Could be better. Put your manners back in, old lady!

Cover charge for my wife and I came out to 7€. The service was okay. Food, not that great. My wife and I both ordered pasta with meat sauce. Didn't like it. My tortelli pasta came filled with cheese, that did not hit the spot. The meat sauce didn't taste that great, and meat was kind of tough. Something to note. Promotion does not work on half servings.

Despite our late reservation, the staff demonstrated exceptional kindness and efficiency. The generous portions of food were complemented by flavorful ragu sauces, particularly the delicious meat. We highly recommend this establishment for a satisfying lunch, as it caters to hearty appetites. Its central location, near major shopping streets and monuments, further enhances its appeal.

This is a terrific little place in one of Florence’s little hard/to-figure-out alleys, and it was wonderful! The steak Florentine was perfect and so was the wine and the service. It was a lovely and reasonably-priced happy first evening in our new favourite city!

We went to this Trattoria inspired by the many good reviews on the platform. We ordered two "primi", as we saw the freshly made pasta and we wanted to try it. My wife's dish was ok, despite the portion was smaller than a typical trattoria, while mine was definitely "poco condito": it was advertised as pasta with shrimps, but it came with it's been served with than a spoon of shrimps; after 2 bites I had to eat a simple dish of pasta with pesto. Not worth the price. Then it comes the dessert: my wife gets a tiramisu, probably made for tourists who have no clue on what to expect, 90% mascarpone, almost no savoiardi, coffee barely present. I took a "dessert of the day"... It was advertised as a chocolate cake with mascarpone cream, but in reality it was a Christmas pandoro filled with chocolate cream, modified to appear as a cake. Possibly a commercial pandoro going to expire in June after not being used for Christmas and resold as a home made cake. We had better than this in Florence.
