    We had a salad Nicosia and a club sandwich, and both were great. Service was excellent. We ate in the garden, which was lovely.

    Restaurant located inside the Hotel. The menù offers a very limited choice of dishes.

    I had this restaurant on my favourites for a few months due to the high ratings. Was really looking forward to this evening. The ala carte menu had about 4-5 choices per section. It was okayyyy nothing there screamed out. I had the fish and they were out of sea bass but had a replacement. It was truly disappointing. It wasn’t very nice, was heavy to go with the sauce and chewy. Overall disappointing evening for the food. The starters were nothing to shout about too. Dessert was their saving grace and the 50% off from Fork’s promo month.

    We were very disappointed with the food! I ordered the sea bream and it came with potatoes that were so undercooked and absolutely tasteless! It was so bland and my husband’s pasta was flavorless and dry. Overall it was not a good food experience 😔

    It was very quiet when we ate at 7.30 hence the very welcome hefty discount. The staff were very friendly and communicative and our food was served in good time and was delicious although not overly complex. Very pleasant experience overall.

    Located in a beautiful 4* hotel. We sat on the patio near the pool which was lovely. The food is good and the staff is very nice, especially the lady Maitre d’Hotel. Would come back again for sure next time when in Florence.

    Food seemed to be frozen food that was reheated. Inedible. Staff was great. Would never recommend this restaurant. We’ve had so many amazing meals in Florence and can’t believe how awful the food was. We booked this hotel to have a calm evening and ending a long trip and my friend and I were celebrating our 60th birthdays and thought this would be an amazing experience with the spa and a quite quality experience. Instead we had a stressful terrible experience. The hotel website is very deceiving as we thought this was a very nice spa and boutique hotel. Spa was very lacing as well. We paid for massages and the facilities were mediocre at best. Sad to end my first trip to Florence on such a negative note. The past 10 days here were amazing definitely would never recommend this hotel or restaurant ever!

    Beautiful place. The waiters were very kind. The three Spaghetti plates where cold. The Bread basket was ridiculously expensive. Maybe we expected something better because of the references

    After a long day sightseeing for 12 hours on a bus we decided to try the restaurant at this hotel because we are staying there and it was convenient. This hotel is really nice and decorated well so the ambience I cannot fault. We arrived in the restaurant and found no staff to seat us. After standing around for 5-10 minutes a young waitress came out from the kitchen and she offered us a table inside or outside. She asked if we would like water and that arrived very quickly. She then brought the wine and food menus. She seemed to forget that we existed after this because she was in a long conversation with a couple on the next table. She also went outside to deal with other diners and continued to go in and out of the kitchen. After about 20 minutes I tried to get her attention. Then she snapped at me to wait a few minutes. We ordered salmon tartare to start and that took 30 minutes for it to arrive. The second course was Roll of Chicken for my wife and Sirloin Steak for myself. Another 20 minute wait after finished the starter and when the dishes arrived they where very disappointing. I had asked for my steak to be medium cooked. It arrived very raw on the inside. My wife’s chicken was very dry. I found that the waitress was dealing with several people at the till in the next room . I waited several minutes for her to deal with other customers and then told her about my steak. She apologised and took it away. Ten minutes later she returned with the steak and potatoes but there was now no sauce on the plate which should have been a wine reduction. I again alerted her to this and she took it away again and five minutes later returned with the plate of steak and potatoes plus sauce. By now the food was getting cold. I ate the food and I payed for it and left very dissatisfied.

    We showed up at the restaurant at the booked time. Was greeted by a lady at reception who said we had to wait a bit. When we waited for 15 minutes without response, the patience was over. We went. Lousy service. Nor did it seem to be anything special about people there and those who worked there seemed to have some fun. Not good!
