10/10Loved this Trattoria, the staff were friendly and the restaurant has a fantastic ambience. Traditional Trattoria doesn’t have an extensive menu but we went for the Steak. Still other options on the menu caught our eye so enough choice. The steak was great the sides delicious, the before n after says it all! Yes, there’s a bit of a language barrier but we muddled thru and it added to the experience.

10/10As a tourist, we were used to bad service in crowded restaurants with just OK food... Bordino was the complete opposite! Amazing food, great service and a wonderful experience. We ended up going back again and again.

10/10Fantastic restaurant near the Ponte Vechio! They're dry-aged Florentine Bistecca (around 2 pounds served rare) is so good!

9/10Meal was amazing. Just wished they served roasted potatoes instead of French fries along side the Florentine steak we ordered. Roasted potatoes would have elevated the meal. However I would return!

10/10Lovely setting away from the chaos of the center of Florence, across the Arno and in Oltrarno. The restaurant itself is set in what looks like an old cave with great decorations all around. The waitstaff were attentive and the food was delicious

9.5/10Lovely place with real good Tuscan food. Service is a little bit slow, but it’s worth the while.

10/10To say this was an excellent meal is not enough. The proprietors of this restaurant are artisans. They craft dry aged steaks with the same care as a sculptor selecting a block of marble. The steak was amazing. The sides and pasta course were out of this world too. This is an authentic Florentine steak house not another tourist trap claiming to be. Everything about the meal was a total success!

9/10Nice family restaurant with great hospitality. I ordered Spaghettone all'Astice* e datterini freschi which is so delicious and Bistecca per due persone "DRY AGE" which was too raw so I asked the kitchen to recook it. Overall, I will return to this restaurant for spaghetti 😉

10/10This place was really awesome and felt very cozy. The dry-aged beef was delicious. The staff are very kind and hospitable. I recommend this place for a date night or to go with friends or family. Order some steak Florentines and some sides of spinach and potatoes. Wonderful experience! One minor thing is that the restaurant appears to be part of a food tour. My partner and I were having fun "people-watching" as two tours came in and out during our meal. Some people may not like this, but we found it incredibly entertaining :)

5.5/10The restaurant has a very limited menu but still managed not to have almost half of the listed dishes. However what they did have was very mediocre and way overpriced. The waiter has no knowledge of wine whatsoever and served 7% Rose instead of a regular Rose wine which was listed but not available.

7.5/10We really enjoyed our evening here. It's just off the Ponte Vecchio so a great location and the food is decent Tuscan cuisine. It was very good value compared to other restaurants in the area and staff were very pleasant

7.5/10I would probably have rated higher but our experience was spoilt by the loud Australian tour leader raising her voice while walking around her group of about 16, to make herself heard, 'talking' them through every step of their meal. Rather than our meal being a relaxing evening out with our friends, after a day of avoiding noisy tours in museums, it felt more like a continuation! This is a place for meat lovers. The ravioli with ceps was dry and stogie but the other pasta dishes were OK. We didn't have deserts.

10/10First came here more than ten years ago, their steak is so good I have a very fond memory of it. And the lobster pasta, truffle pasta were great too. I came back after all these years, they offer dry aged now, it is even better! The table side cutting is always fascinating. We tried a pasta with vongole and pesto, impeccable!

6/10Now granted, we come from Texas where beef is king and although the cut of Tbone was beautiful AND aged there needs to be a better choice of cooking preferences. You are WASTING the taste on EVERYTHING being extremely rare. No choice…just what a 120€ 2 person Tbone gets you. As we say in Texas….”Cmon now!!!”

10/10We were recommended to come here in order to get a great food experience. Not only we’ve got amazing and delicious local fiorentina, we had the best waiter John who took care of us and was very kind. We also were able to stay after closing time and finish our bottle of wine. Excellent service here, I definitely recommend a visit and I am giving them 10/10!

7.5/10Food was excellent. Atmosphere was cozy. Staff was good but the restaurant seemed understaffed the night we went, so we waited for service a long time.

9.5/10This is our second visit and we were not disappointed. Service is attentive and professional. Food was superb. We ordered spaghetti alla chitarra with sundried tomato pesto and olives and were surprised by the nice addition of toasted bread crumbs and crunchy, delicious almonds. Great combination of flavors. For second, sea bass in a gorgeous tasty broth with fresh cherry tomatoes and olives. My husband enjoyed octopus with onions and burrata. The wine list was extensive. A lovely meal. If we are lucky enough to return to Florence, we will eat here again. The only thing that could be improved on is the lighting outside, very dim and harsh white lights. Warm lighting and candles would really make the ambience in this back street.

6/10Decent food, a little pricier than other places we ate at in Florence but it was recommended as a 'non tourist' spot. It was full of only tourists and playing 70s/80s pop music so didn't have the kind of ambience we expected. The staff were indifferent to us being there and it was hard to get service at times. The food was very good, we had TBones and Sea bass. Both were excellent Would we go back, probably not, but wouldn't be upset if we had to.

7.5/10If you are looking for fresh meat, this would be a good choice. If you want good pasta and vegetarian meals, this is not a good choice. Not good ambiance either.

10/10Love it so much. Been coming since 2013. Had a menu change a few years ago but they made an off-menu dish for me upon request. Staff has been the same since back then. Lovely atmosphere, beautiful bistecca, better service. 100000% recommend

10/10What a fantastic dining experience! The food was prepared artistically and to perfection. My husband and I were looking for a unique place in the Oltrarno and we found it. We ordered green tortelli with sun dried tomato, basil and olive. The sauce was wonderful, with a slightly crunchy surprise of walnuts. Oh, so good. Our second dish was spiedini (skewers) of beef with onions and basil which was cooked on wood to tender perfection. Wines were reasonably priced. We ordered a half liter of house red. We ate outside at a quiet private table but the inside was also extremely charming and cozy, with soft lighting. The owner and server were warm and attentive. When we return to Florence, we will seek out this treasure again.

4/10The atmosphere is nice but the food seemed over priced for what we got. There are places with the Florentine Bisteca for cheaper and better taste.
