Brisk, efficient service, plus you pay on the way out so don't have to wait around for the bill. Good food, pleasant atmosphere, welcoming host. I'll happily eat here again.

Found this Osteria via our European travel agent. Had great reviews & it did not disappoint. Service was excellent! It was Christmas Day and we were thankful it was open for dinner. We were greeted with glasses of champagne to celebrate the holiday and we left with a bottle of house Chianti wine. It was full but not noisy. We tried several Florentine dishes and they were all delicious! As Americans we are used to rushing through meals, but just relax and enjoy the multiple courses and service. What I love about the places we ate at in Florence was we got to meet the owners. They are kind and want to provide you with good food and a good experience.

The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming. The food was delicious and the portions were very generous! Since we arrived earlier than our reservation, they let us rest on the sofa and even treated us to complimentary champagne—which was exactly what we needed after a long day of sightseeing. It seems like a popular spot for locals too. Highly recommended!

The restaurant was lovely- staff friendly but very busy - husband’s beef stew delicious with great depth of flavour. But the chicken liver pate was not to our taste- my daughter loves pate and we had had another chicken pate a previous evening which was just devine- she unfortunately couldn’t eat this one. Our wild boar pasta dish was absolutely fine but not particularly memorable- we had hoped for more after reading the reviews about the food . Maybe it is because we didn’t have steak ? But overall slightly disappointed .

The food was delicious and the service was great. Especially our waiter valentin, at the end they even gave us a little gift on the house. Definitely one of the best restaurants that we visited in Florence

This place is great! Ambience, service and especially the food. The ravioli w spinach and truffles was delicious as was the veal chop. All cooked to perfection. Special kudos to the manager/owner (not sure) who was super generous and friendly! Highly recommend.
