    Enjoyed dinner here in 2017. We decided to visit again and were not disappointed. Chef even made a dish for me that was no longer on the menu!!

    Our waiter was fantastic , experiensed , and a comedian of class. A real competitor to Manuel in Faulty Towers - but more classy. Made our evening a joy.

    Otto our server was very good. The ambiance was ok because the tables were arranged in a very odd arrangement. The buffalo mozzarella cheese and tomatoes plate was disappointing. We ordered the Florentine Steak plate and while some of the pieces were amazing many of the other cuts had too much fat and were not as good.

    Special Appetizer (buttata with Spanish ham) and pasta dish (truffle) for the evening was excellent! The osso buco was just ok. Portion size were large so we shared every dish. Wine recommendation was excellent and service was superior as well. Would highly recommend. We had great table downstairs, though we were sat with all fellow Americans so felt like we were in New Jersey vs Italy at times. Would prefer to hear Italian at next table while in Firenze ;~)

    We seated in the wine cellar, and the ambience was magnificent! Meal was great. There were 4 of us and we each had a pasta dish for Primi, and shared the steak that is listed for 2. It was more than enough food. All delicious and done perfectly. We told them we were celebrating a special birthday and they started each of us with a complimentary glass of Prosecco, and finished with a complimentary slice of cheesecake with candle and sang “They say it’s your birthday “ by the Beetles, and a shot of limoncello. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. Tables were a little tight but we were comfortable and talked to two of the tables and shared travel stories that added to the fun of the evening. I would HIGHLY recommend…but make sure you have a reservation especially for the wine cellar!

    Our table was in the wine cellar which was so romantic. Our waiter helped us find a delightful wine. We shared shrimp risotto and the steak florentine. The presentation was so dramatic. Tasted better than it looked. They only cook it rare but it was yummy. The potato’s were divine. My only complaint was the tiramisu. It was kind of runny. Did not finish. Had plenty of leftovers for sandwiches the next day. Overall beautiful experience. Recommend highly

    This restaurant was recommended by our hotel as serving the best bistecca di Fiorentina in Florence and did they ever. The restaurant is very unassuming from the outside but upon entering the atmosphere was like going for dinner at a friends house! The starters were incredible - I shared the salami and pecorino platter served with honey, marmalade and pears. I can’t believe how well they worked together - please try it. However the start of the show was the steak which was as expected huge but it had been filleted into thick chunky slices which made it simple to eat. The flavour - boom - unbelievable, served with roast potatoes and with a side order of wilted spinach. Honestly the best meal I’ve had this year. Btw there was a very good wine list and we enjoyed a Noblise de montipulciano for 35 euros -a bargain. The waiter was extrovert, funny and helpful without being annoying and was always there when needed. What a place!!!

    Our favorite meal so far in Italy. Absolutely charming ambiance and beautiful decorations. Felt like a warm hug. The owner is very kind and welcoming. Our server was amazing. She was charming, kind, knowledgeable and so sweet. She was patient with us and her english was great. She was also helping us with our Italian. I’m glad we had a reservation because this place was very busy. And we know why! As far as food: the shrimp and white bean app was delicious and the crostini di fegatini (pate with rustic bread and antipasti) was outstanding. Other highlights (everything was a highlight) the shrimp risotto, the veal cheek with mashed potatoes, occobucco (veal shank) with black rice was mouth-watering. We are not big dessert people but we decided to order some and we were so happy we did! Cheesecake was the best we have ever had, dark chocolate heart was delicious and the yogurt mousse with berry sauce…wowza. We had lemoncello shots after and we all decided it was a perfect Italian meal.

    The restaurant is excellent. The food is very well prepared and the steak Fiorentina is one of the best we have tasted in Florence. We also had Osso bucco and pici pasta with bacon and tomatoes, all of these were outstandingly done. What impressed us the most was the wine list and the extensive wine collection, we had truly special wines kindly recommended by two incredible guys- Ardit and his older brother, who made all the difference to us and turned the experience unforgettable, from just another great restaurant to the most amazing Florentine food and wine experience. A must go and it is right in the centre of town which makes it a very convenient lunch location after a museum or shopping morning

    Beautiful restaurant with excellent food and service. I loved the romantic ambiance with the mini lights on the ceiling. We ordered the wild boar pasta which was very tender and had fantastic flavor. The gnocchi with truffle was soft & pillowy and the sea bass with vegetables was..Wow! Never had a more delicious sea bass and the veggies were so incredibly well seasoned & roasted! The entire experience was perfect.

    This was an excellent restaurant and the service from the staff was super and welcoming! The food was truly excellent and they even went above and beyond to make a separate pasta dish for my youngest son who didn’t want what was on the menu. Fantastic dinner with the family!

    Nice place. Small and family run. Great artichoke salad and incredible lamb chops for the kids. Good options beyond traditional pastas and steaks. 6-8 specials from starters to mains. Kids 10/13 both loved their meals

    Definitely add this to your list of restaurants to come to when in Florence! My husband and I came here for dinner while in Florence on our honeymoon and it was one of our favorite dinners of the whole trip. The wine and food were all excellent! We went with all of our waiter’s recommendations and it was such an incredible meal. My husband and I split their appetizer special which was a Spanish ham and mozzarella, for primi piatti we split the tagliatelle bolognese, and then for our main we split the Florentine steak, which you should 100% get when coming here. For dessert we got their homemade cheesecake which was delicious, and our waiter even brought us each a small glass of their special dessert wine to go with it! Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious and we will definitely be coming back here next time we are in Florence!

    Disappointing meal on first night. This was our most Disappointing meal in Florence. Unfriendly greeting , noone acknowledged us for several minutes. Despite booking weeks and weeks in advance and asking for cellar we were put in worst seats in little dark balcony. Unimpressive. Full of Americans. Not worth the money. Every meal after this was exceptional.
