Very average meal and experience. There are so many other options and wished we had gone elsewhere.

Terrible experience. Staff are rude and very snobbish. It tainted the whole experience. There are so many excellent restaurants. This is not one of them.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the menu had a nice variety. I ordered the homemade gnocchi and it was out of this world! Would definitely recommend!

We ordered the following three dishes: • Pici senesi al ragù della tradizione • Tagliolini alla crema di tartufo nero • Tagliata di manzo con rucola e grana The truffle pasta was absolutely delicious, with the sauce perfectly coating the noodles. The beef was tender and flavorful, and the portion size was just right for two to share. The young male waiter was both friendly and professional, maintaining the perfect balance of attentiveness and distance. We felt no sense of discrimination against Asian customers — he treated all guests equally and with genuine hospitality.

Booked due to excellent reviews, however extremely disappointed. One side of the restaurant was chaotic, the other building calm with spaces. Hence, waiters were distracted. The bread basket was dry and consisted of end pieces, the green side salad was limp leaves, and both pasta dishes were average.

We returned to Giovanni’s after many years. It did not disappoint! The bistecca and filet melted in your mouth. The salad so fresh, and the pecorino perfecto.

It felt more like a restaurant in the USA where they rushed you in, fed you and released you. The food was good, but not anything I have had in Italy. I should have realized that it was going to subpar when I had to make a Reservation. I enjoy talking to a waiter and asking Questions, and pouring wine and leisurely enjoying my meal. This wasn’t that.

Everything here was amazing! 10 out of 10 would return in a heartbeat. I didn’t want the meal to end. The service was thoughtful and thorough, best dish was hard to pick but gotta say the papperdalle with wild boar blew me away!

The food was absolutely excellent. I had the boar's meat pasta and the Ribilieto soup. The waiter gave great advice to split the Ribilieto, as it was more like a stew. The maitre de (Giovanni?) was helpful and kind to my tired son. Although we were rushed, this was absolutely the best meal I had in Firenze and perhaps in Italy. I'd go back in a minute.

Easy walk from historic area. Food was delicious. Nice wait staff, not only our waiter but the rest of the staff stopped by throughout the meal to check on us. We had the traditional prosciutto with melon appetizer which was perfect with heaps of the cured meat. Our two primi pastas were heavenly, the Gorgonzola gnocchi and the pasta with cow cheek sauce, meat was super tender. Our secundo was the grilled sausage with side of potatoes.

The truffle linguini was perfection! The steak was great with the peppercorn sauce being wonderful too.
