My husband and I visited Florence for a full week and came to eat here 3 times because everything…read morewas just so incredibly fresh and delicious! The oysters are ENORMOUS and the portions are very generous and extremely great value for money. The atmosphere is very cool and modern with incredible service as well. We basically tried through the menu while we were there and honestly loved every single thing we tasted. I highly recommend this to anyone in town to add to your list of you are a seafood fan!

4.5 stars The Fishing Lab presents an innovative…read moreconcept--seafood served in a variety of forms including raw, grilled, bar bites, and composed dishes, all on the same menu! The most creative dish we had was the Codfish Cappuccino, a codfish mousse topped with potato foam, served in a cappuccino cup with a croissant on the side. It was made to look like breakfast but was a savory seafood appetizer! One nice feature about the menu here was that many dishes could be ordered in a "Tapas" (half) portion, so it was easy to try and share lots of different items. The Catalan-style Calamari and Shrimp Salad was a refreshing mixture of chopped squid mixed with zucchini, carrots, fennel, tomatoes, and oranges; the Fusili with Galician-style Octopus Sauce came with al dente corkscrew pasta in a tomato-based octopus ragout made with spicy salami and topped with potato foam; and the Cacciucco was a tomato-based stew (from the Tuscan coastal city of Livorno) made with octopus, cuttlefish, mussels, and gurnard, along with dry chunks of bread that were moistened in the stew. Finally, we had the Isolana-Style Sea Bream Fillet, which was simply grilled and served over roasted vegetables including zucchini, potatoes, peppers, onions, and olives. Overall, the seafood here was fresh and tasty, fusing elements of Spanish and Italian cuisines.

Overall good experience Food is amazing…read more Reservations not required but better to have one

Made a reservation well in advance. Arrived for our dinner and were immediately seated. The…read morerestaurant is good looking and very welcoming. We looked at the menu and decided on a couple of things...the Burrata with Truffles, Eggplant Parmigiana, Cacio e Pepe, and a side of Tuscan White Beans. We ordered food and drinks. Drinks arrived within 2 minutes and lo and behold our Burrata Salad arrived Two minutes later...and yes I timed it. I asked that our food be slowed down and also asked that it not be cooked and served cold. We finished our Burrata with a Truffles which I might add was delicious. And within a reasonable few minutes our food arrived. The Cacio e Pepe was delightful but could have had a bit more Pepe. The Tuscan White Beans were perfect with a hint of spice which made them special. I wish I could say the Eggplant Parmigiana was equally as good as the rest of the meal. It was not. It was way over cooked - almost burned. Guess it just stayed in the oven while we slowed down our meal. We managed to delay our meal enough that we were actually in the restaurant a bit over an hour. I can't say service was lacking I would describe it as more overwhelming...almost uncomfortable. Atmosphere - 4 Food - 3 Service - 2 Price - 4 Overall Rating - 3.25

This is an amazing, small Osteria just outside of the heart of Florence. Family owned and operated,…read moreit has a ton of charm. The food was Devine. We stumbled in our 1st night we stayed in Florence because it was within walking distance from our Villa. It did not disappoint. We had a basket of baked local vegetables with a shaved ricotta cheese on them to start. One of the best things I've eaten so far in Italy! We had the Steak Florintine both nights, both were incredible cuts of meat. The 2nd night (our last night on Florence), we went back because it was so good the 1st night, I had a pasta dish with red sauce, chili, and more of that shaved Ricotta...OMG, best pasta dish of my life. We also had a bean dish (again, fresh local vegetables) cooked in a different red sauce that was amazing as well. This red sauce was a touch sweeter but just as delicious. Both nights we had the best Pana Cotta I've ever had. Now for the people. They are AMAZING! Owner there is amazing and his staff is like family (might actually be) We felt like family after the 2nd nights dinner. They were so happy to see us when we showed up again. Like any place in Italy, call 1st to make sure they can accommodate you for dinner. Saw them turn away a few walkins, even with open tables (a thing here in Italy I've noticed, and I think it has to do with quality, not quantity in preparedness) Overall this is a must try place. Very local feel and excellent wine list from all regions. Again, we felt like family and it shows in the meals they prepare.

Amazing atmosphere and even better food. Wait staff was very accommodating for,last minute dining…read more The filet with caramelized onions and bacon was to die for. I highly recommend. Best meal we had in Italy so far.
