A friend whose daughter had studied at the university in Florence suggested this cafeteria. Outstanding location, nice outside seating with a view of the very close Duomo, solid value fare, and surprisingly friendly service. FOOD: 3.5. Excellent value. - Pasta Ragout. Very good. - Spaghetti with cherry tomatoes. Very good. We also had two espressos. AMBIANCE: 4.0. Inside and outside (covered) seating. Outside has view of Duomo. Pleasant. SERVICE: 4.0. Considerate and prompt. After ordering and paying, we sat at an outside table. Our order was then brought to us. NOTE: Google maps gave us walking directions that took us to opposite side of block from entrance, so we walked around block until we found the entrance. Upon entering the university grounds the cafeteria can be a challenge to find; we had to ask someone.

We sat outdoors and were attended to almost immediately. Quick service, and prompt delivery of our food by a friendly server, softened the blow of not entering the church. Great food helped even more? We split spaghetti carbonara and a fried fish dish. Bread service was nice as the balsamic vinegar had Chianti added to it, a first for us. Sitting outdoors, you are close to your fellow patrons, but it is always nice to learn about where they are from and where thy are going. It started to rain just as we were getting served, but held off the heavy stuff until we finished, so we will always rember this meal.

I don't know if it's slow to me because crazy Americans think everything should be faster than not. So I wish I could give half stars. They are super nice ..,it just took a while to get my order in. The second thing that I don't think they can control is the people who walk around trying to sell you something. They're a bit aggressive. With me looking like them, they beelined for me the two times we sat there near the entrance. So I suggest sitting inside away from that because they can't come in. There is this little cute table that we sat at that is on the edge of the inside but the window is a roll up window giving you access to the outside patio. That is where the can still get to you but can't come all the way in....except this one lady. She stepped all the way in....i was shocked. And got aggressive with me when I told her no thank you. The trick?...they told me "I'm beautiful" "like your natural hair..." and since they liked me, they said "I give to you..." and handed me two bracelets and a fan. I said no thank you and she kept shouting "excuse me...I give to you..." I set them on the table and she gave me the son story of being pregnant and since she give to me, I should give to her for the gift. I said no one final time and she snatched everything off the table and left...FINALLY. Ugh. So not sure if the restaurant can do more but they need to.
