The nicest restaurant we visited with a great range of dishes to suit vegetarians and meat esters. The staff made excellent recommendations for food and wine.

The waiter who helped me order was very friendly but the meat was tough. This was the first time I used the Fork app during my 2 and a half month trip to Europe and since I was using it alone, I made a reservation during a quiet time. Everything was fine except when I paid and was leaving, I heard a loud "shit" sound. I had my bluetooth earphones on but I could still hear the outside noise. What did I do wrong? Maybe it was because they added 3 euros to my order so I didn't tip... or maybe it was because I spilled a drop of dessert sauce on the tablecloth. I wonder if I can continue using the Fork app and it made me feel bad all day.

I’m sorry this experience left you feeling uneasy. Rest assured, no one was saying anything unpleasant directed at you. Restaurants can sometimes be lively environments, and sounds or conversations from the kitchen or other tables might occasionally be overheard. In Italy, a “coperto” or cover charge is a standard part of dining out. This small fee, which was likely the 3 euros you mentioned, helps cover the use of table settings, bread, and other basic services. Because of this, tipping isn’t always expected, as the cover charge often accounts for part of the service. So not leaving a tip in addition to the coperto is very common and totally fine. We love working with The Fork app, as it helps us provide a seamless experience for guests like you by letting us know when to expect you and prepare accordingly. It’s a wonderful tool for both restaurants and customers, so please feel free to continue using it with confidence. We hope this reassures you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime for a worry-free

Our server was friendly and very attentive, and provided helpful suggestions. The restaurant ambience was excellent; quiet, with soft music and pleasant decor. The dishes were delicious and very reasonably priced. We would absolutely dine here again.

we went here for our last meal in Florence, and Italy. The service was good, as the poor young waiter explained that he was on his own, and seemed many customers arrived around the same time. We had bruschetta (is it the Florentines don't use garlic or basil??), which was average (needed more salt too). However the pear tortellini was Divine. I had osso bucco for main, and my friend had the steak with green pepper sauce. Again, both were delicious! Generous portion. We couldn't fit in dessert, but they gave us limoncello at the end.

Our second visit in one week. Both times, the food and service were excellent. Be sure to try the burrata and pear appetizer. Amazing! Thank you, Turi and Eli!

Osteria de Cicalini is an incredible restaurant! Not only was our food excellent … our burrata, pear and honey starter was delicious as was our salad and pasta with seafood… but the owner Turi is very welcoming and helpful. This special restaurant is tucked away on a side street close to the Duomo, but completely away from the crowds of tourists. We highly recommend the restaurant and will return again while we are in Florence to enjoy another delicious meal!
