    The huge steak was delicious as well and all the food. Wine was equal to the food. Very chilled atmosphere for the customers, but the waiters were very professional. Our waiter was awesome and helped us order in the right way for authenticity purposes. I don’t recall his name but we kept joking about how he was going to have to help us eat the rest of the steak. Haha 9/10 overall for us.

    My partner booked this restaurant as part of my 50th birthday celebrations. The food was fantastic and the service was very good. I had a wonderful fresh pasta dish here after a delicious ham and cheese board platter. We re-visited the restaurant to share a bistecca (T-bone steak) and it was very good quality (and huge!).

    Food was very good. the waiter, however, was very rude. He acted as if we were a burden, laughed at me daughter when she tried to speak Italian, and when she could not finish her gnocchi because she was full, he got upset. He asked if she didn't like it, and she told him it was great but she was full. He glared at her, grabbed the plate and said "you don't like it" and walked away. In a city known for its tourists, the waiter sure did not make us feel welcome.

    We had a wonderful meal here for our first night in Florence. The customer service was unmatched and we were recommended a great bottle of wine which only cost around €30. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

    Great dinner with my family (wife, 5 and 3-year-olds). Steak was just delicious, so was my wife’s truffle ravioli. Kids very happy with their pizza and bolognese. Service friendly and thoughtful. Very good experience.

    What a gem right by Ponte Vecchio! Delish Tuscan food and owner warmly greeted us with a glass of Rose with our foods. Had the local beef stew Chiante, Fruit de Mare & spaghetti bolognese. The Chiante was so flavorful. Owner said it slow-cooked for 5 hours with a touch of red wine. The Fruit de Mare was one of the best eaten, without the seafood taste and a touch of white wine. Best meal in Florence thus far!

    Second time dining here. As tourists from the U.S., we took the suggestions of our waiter. The food was delicious, 6 pasta dishes were shared and no one was disappointed. Homemade pasta with truffle and pear was the most popular of our group, but strozzoli with chilies and tuscan wild boar meat pasta dishes were a close second. Great meal to start our visit!

    We had an excellent dinner! Our waiter was fabulous. He made many recommendations on wine and entrees. We ordered the florentine steak which came out on a sizzling plater. We really enjoyed the evening and never felt rushed. The river view outside the restaurant was stunning. I highly recommended!

    The host was very welcoming and friendly, we arrived 40 minutes before the booking time and they let us in. The bistecca fiorentina was splendid! The most tender one I had ever eaten in Italy and Florence. It was a very nice birthday dinner!

    Lovely restaurant by Ponte Vecchio. We had a reservation so we were seated immediately. The staff was friendly and all spoke English well. They even gave us the 20% food discount without us asking. Food was amazing, wine also. Will definitely be back.

    This lovely restaurant near the Medici bridge over the river, has a quiet welcoming atmosphere and great food. Dinner prices are very reasonable. We went there twice in our one week vacation in Florence. The ravioli with truffle oil and the pasta with pear and cheese were the highlights.

    Perfect little hideaway beside the Ponte Vecchio. Food is hearty and the wine is sumptuous. Well worth the visit. The staff were very helpful and quite humorous.

    The restaurant did not apply the 20% discount even though they accepted the table. It was late and we wanted a table so we split into 2 tables, as we went a bit early. Apparently this is the reason why they didn't apply it.
