The drinks are made well and priced right. The service is friendly and accommodating for Italian standards. The only issue I had was there was only one bathroom which for a busy restaurant that can be a big problem. Otherwise we would definitely recommend this place for drinks!! Bottom line..come for a drink here if you are looking for something more modern and fun. It also could be a good place to just have light bites. Pros Drinks Light bites Modern vibe Friendly service Nice location Cons Only one bathroom

This place is beautiful, totally hipster (one of these many new hipster places in Florence totally…read morerenewing the old tratoria / osteria landscape), and the atmosphere is very festive - a bit noisy for sure but nice. It is 100% a "cool" place. And as such, they have developed this very characteristic symptom of coolness (evidence of this disease all over Europe) of "we do not accept reservation". Understand "we are so cool that we know you will wait". And i did. But i did once. I had a very nice moment and enjoyed the atmosphere a lot, especially on a saturday night. But the food did not convince me enough to have me wait again for so long. It was good but nothing spectacular. Probably i am not cool enough. So, what did we eat? Some salmon, with very very dry rice: i did not like at all. Some anchovies with spinach and burrata: this one i liked a lot, i find the alliances of these different ingredients very tasty. A falafel: it was ok, nothing special. Then for dessert, the mini bombe were good and the panna cotta was very good too. To sum up, the dessert were very good but i was not very impressed by the other tapas and even disliked one. Still worth going for this very cool atmosphere (and if you do not mind waiting). Writing those lines i realize that maybe i'll wait again once...

The fried goat cheese salad was good but could've used more goat cheese. The burger was also good, though definitely tasted different than an American burger. The homemade bun was excellent. The special sauce was great too, and citrusy! The waiter had great energy and great English. There was a very pretty tree centerpiece (pictured) that lended good ambience. Also some misters. Would definitely return!

I've never had two lunches before, but this was the best salad I've had in my ENTIRE LIFE. The ingredients were fresh and perfect, the dressing was perfectly balanced and absolutely incredible. The spritzes at Odeon were my favorite drink in Italy. They even have a wine window if you just want that. I dream about this place. 5 stars isn't enough, they can have all the stars in the world.

Whether you sit indoors or outdoors, the café provides a pleasant and beautiful escape from crowds of surrounding streets. The servers are extremely friendly. The space attracts a diverse crowd. You can find groups of people doing work, people reading, or just eating and chatting. There are people of all ages, mostly Italian, and even a few families. The restaurant is extremely aesthetically pleasing and well decorated with a variety of found furniture and antiques-- including rows of old theater seats, which were creatively used as table seating and crates of fresh fruits and vegetables lining the wall. The café has a fantastic selection of both food and drink. One can chose from a variety of sandwiches that are atypical of Florentine paninis with ingredients such as hummus. For all of their sandwiches, the crust is removed baked into delicious and crisp croutons. There is also a selection of salads, hot plates, pastries, and specials. They serve a variety of fresh, seasonal juices. The cocktail menu is extensive and includes creative, locally sourced and seasonal drinks. Amblé exemplifies style, coziness, and sustainability-- setting the eatery apart from others in Florence.
