    Had the porchetta sandwich with burrata. Was on the dryer side and wish the bread was toasted a bit longer. Nice that there's no line though!

    The line for Antico down the street was crazy and I needed a sandwich. I had noticed La Prosciutteria in passing a few days earlier and it looked intriguing (I love the boars head above the door!) so I tried it that day. I have also noticed La Prosciutteria's in other Italian cities so they seem pretty established. Their business card lists 10 total locations, mostly in central to North Italy. They are obviously a competitor to Antico and are worth a try. La Prosciutteria call themselves a wine and Prosciutto bar but all I noticed was the many racks of meat hanging from the walls and ceiling. It looks very yummy and I feel like buying one of those hanging racks of meat! They seem to feature the porchetta which is always good on a sandwich. I had the Schiacciata La 2 sandwich for just 9 Euros served on a focaccia roll with a seasoned spread on it. Great food and lots of other choices. I still like the Antico bread better but this place is a great one to try and also have super delicious sandwiches.

    Seven hours of walking in Uffizi museum left us super exhausted. Deciding on this restaurant was the best decision made. It was an absolute lifesaver and truly an unexpected highlight of our Florence trip! Its location is perfect, just a short, easy stroll from all the major attractions, including the Uffizi. We began our meal with a fantastic cheese board, offering a delightful variety of cheeses alongside two delicious small portions of jam - a truly great start. However, the highlight was the cheese fondue. We've enjoyed fondue before but what we experienced here was on an entirely different level. The flavor was unbelievably delicious. It was rich, creamy, full of flavor that we'll never forget. To balance the richness, we also savored a fresh burrata salad, which provided the perfect complementary freshness. We started with a simple idea of having few glasses of wine and something to munch, but we ended up enjoying the hot delicious cheese fondue with a whole bottle of wine. The entire experience was terrific!!!. The place seemed like an ordinary place, a very basic setup but its holds the most delicious fondue & incredible wines.The service was also fast, friendly & attentive.For anyone visiting Florence, I cannot recommend their fondue highly enough. it's an absolute must-try!

    Excellent selection of charcuterie!

    So much food worth the money. Excellent selection of charcuterie! So glad we stumbled to this place... like a whole in the wall gem.

    Great sandwich spot right near Palazzo Vecchio. Meats are cut to order. Bread is great. $7-8 euros for a sandwich.

    We loved every minute in Florence, Italy, and La Prosciutteria, while it was a quick stop, was so satisfying. It is the quintessential sandwich shop in Tuscany! Countless tasty breads, plethora of delicious meats - all with a variety of flavors, and more toppings, cheeses and spreads than you can count. This is my kind of stop! We favored quick stops while exploring Florence over a sit-down tablecloth experience and La Prosciutteria is worth a stop!

    When travel is life and food makes it more special! One of my favorites when in Firenze!

    Every visit we have made to Florence absolutely requires a stop at this spot and this past trip was no exception! It's a small and in the cut spot with locations throughout Italy (but this Florence location in my favorite) with all things delicious and a fantastic wine selection. We got the house wine and I so wish I would've ordered something different because the rose looked really good. We like to keep it simple and order a board for two and the only thing I dont partake in is the pate. My favorite is the blue cheese truffle spread - SO yummy! It's a cute place to grab a bite, a glass of vino and people watch!

    Fantastic food! We got the Gourmet board, literally everything on it was delicious. Perfect size for 2 for a dinner meal of charcuterie. We also drank a bottle of the Classic Chianti, which was great. Ambiance was nice for a hangout and place to chill and chat. Not sure it'd word for small kids. Would definitely recommend.

    There are many many interesting facts about Florence. They kickstarted the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci was born just outside of town, gelato was invented there, it is the first paved city in Italy, and Ezio from Assassin's Creed is from there (and if you played the game that shiznet is deadly accurate to the actual city). On top of all that, Florence is the original location of La Prosciutteria, an Italian chain of bars that serve charcuterie and wine. Uffizi what? Duomo what? It's all about the vino. I first encountered the chain in Rome and so when I saw the same name pop up on my Yelp app, it was like reuniting with an old pal. The wife and I ended up having our last sippy sip in Eataly here. Again, since they do not have a license to be a full restaurant, you need to order first and pick up your food and drink from the counter. This time, when I ordered, I told the worker Tomas that I had been to their Trevi Fountain location. He said that they were the original and that he would prove it. I ordered a medium size plate that came jam-packed with a lot of meats, cheeses, and spreads. Being the last night, we ended up drinking two full bottles of Super Tuscan wine. I think as I said goodbye to Tomas, I was a little buzzed and may have sounded like a messed up Super Mario. Mama mia. * La Prosciutteria is located next to the awfully overrated All'antico Vinaio so it's not hard to miss.

    Great food and service. Loved the fondue and pork with Gorgonzola sauce and a good wine list too - reasonable prices

    La Proscuitteria is located along a street filled with lunch spots very similar. To be honest, a lot of them are overrated - meaning, you do not need to wait in a 30 minute line for great meats, cheeses, and sandwiches. You can stop into La Prosciutteria to have a great lunch. What sets them apart is that they will create custom meat/cheese boards and sandwiches for you based on your tastes that day and what they have fresh. We found a seat and started with a board for two (at a very low cost) and then moved onto a panino to share. The ingredients they used are of the highest quality - this is a must try at lunch or for a mid-afternoon snack.

    Charcuterie board

    The board was terrific, especially enjoying them with a glass of wine. That was a great combo. The person who worked there was helpful with selecting the best option. She was friendly and patient with us. The environment was visually pleasing.

    While waiting for our next tourist attraction, my husband and I decided to have a bite at La Prosciutteria, which is highly recommended on Yelp. This was the one place we visited where I couldn't get away with my poor Italian and had to rely on nonverbal communication to order. We shared a delicious board of breads, cheeses, and meats. And I had a glass of red wine. I'll never get over how "cheap wine" in Italy is still so good. The one thing that made it difficult to get into the spirit was the weird American music covers that were playing in the background. Anyways I tried not to act like a tourist here. The man and woman behind the counter were extremely patient and kind. I enjoyed that there wasn't a crowd here. Other places nearby were packed, so I'm grateful we had a quiet moment to ourselves with the locals.

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.

We grabbed a bottle of wine on a warmer June afternoon after a day of exploring, which was definitely refreshing. The location isn't much as it overlooks a pretty bare piazza. The service can be a bit on the slower side, especially when I walked in and tried to get the bill. But still if you're able to get a table it's a pretty quaint wine bar. It seemed like they had some flights/tastings, which would have been an interesting option.

    Title: Great wine selection, but disappointing service from our server Noemi…read moreWe visited Enoteca Pitti Gola because it was recommended by Wine Spectator, and the wine list truly is impressive -- an extensive and well-curated selection of Italian wines. We were two couples and went for some wine and light snacks. When we arrived, there wasn't a table available for four, so we had to sit separately. Once a table behind our friends became available, we asked to move so we could sit closer together, but our server, Noemi, wasn't very accommodating and seemed somewhat annoyed by the request. We mentioned that we wanted to share a few dishes and asked about portion sizes, but Noemi didn't explain things clearly and wasn't very friendly. She insisted the plates weren't meant for sharing, which turned out not to be true. The wine itself was excellent, and the snacks were good -- but the overall service from Noemi felt unfriendly and not very customer-oriented. I'd still recommend the place if you're interested in trying great Italian wines, but be aware that the service experience may not match the quality of the wine.

    November 9, 2024 2:30PM…read more It does appear they have two stalls on the same street that you can order from. One side seemed to have more alcohol on display and the side I was on was more sandwich focused, but I'm pretty sure you can order the same things from both windows. Initially I was going to get the 21 - Fresh Sausage and Eggplant because I'm an eggplant lover... the lady at the counter was kind enough to let me know that the fresh sausage is actually rare, uncooked sausage and gave me a small piece to try. I was getting ready to get on a train that day and didn't want something that might not sit well with me, so I moved on to number 27 spicy salami and cream cheese. My partner got the number 1, ham, cream cheese and rocket salad. Both are very good sized and oh so delicious. The line moved quickly, so many options for decision paralysis. This is the place for schiacciate Florentine as recommended from friends who used to live here. Definitely would recommend to study up their menu before coming so it's easier to pick what you want. This is more of a stall and you grab and go, we stood around the sidewalk and inhaled our sandwiches. Watch out for the pigeons getting ready to take your crumbs too, you can see them on the ledge of the building getting ready to attack. A must visit for Florence.
