One day it said it was down for maintenance or something and then it never came back online for me. I don't think once until even after I came back from Italy. On to the food. No I can't tell you the name of all of these specific places that we tried in this food hall. First, let me start off by saying that this is one of the largest food halls that I have ever been to, possibly even the largest. Again, this place is huge with plenty to choose from in a lot of variety. They had plenty of different Italian foods, burgers, gelato, a bar, and I think I even saw a vegetarian and a Taqueria. We all ended up going to different booths. My friends ordered a couple pizza slices, ravioli, wild boar Ragu pasta, and I got a Porchetta plate. We had joked that my friends ravioli tasted like Chef Boyardee from the can. The wild boar pasta while OK flavor had very chalky textured meat. My friend's pizza he said was so so. The huge disappointment for me was the Porchetta. due to the nature of it being a food hall it's hit or miss so my guess is that these guys just cook a giant Porchetta and it's a hope for the best type of situation. They probably just slice it as the orders come in. It looked like he stuck it in the oven to reheat, but the whole process results in you getting a plate of dry overcooked Porchetta. Maybe if you come early in the day when they first open, it's great but I highly recommend you avoid this place at night. It's a little sad to say, but I took maybe five bites in total and tossed the rest out. I was hungry, but not desperately hungry that I felt I needed to eat this. There was a gelato spot right next to our table, which I did try. I don't think I caught the name, but one of the flavors on there said it was award-winning for some kind of gelato competition. I got it and I must admit it was pretty good. Anyways, I wouldn't tell you not to come to this food hole, but I would tell you to keep your expectations in check.

We were all thirsty and kept grabbing drinks from their cooler, waving them in the air to staff so they could keep track. That created kind of a friendly bond for the short time we were there, just adding to our positive experience.

This is a Neopolitan style of pizza with its soft thin dough with a crispy bottom and chewy high edges. First off, they only serve pizza and drinks, so no salads, appetizers, pastas. But that's a good sign when you find a place that specializes in only one dish. We ordered the bufalo and added mushrooms and arugula, the marinara, and the salame. Actually the marinara was our favorite since you could taste the garlic and the oregano. We ate inside but they do have tables outside. They are even able to shape your pizza into a heart! Amore!!!! We met the owner Roberto and he was so friendly, his staff was great and our pizzas were served quickly!

What great luck, we got in, we were seated and were immediately served some great wine (total teaser). The wait staff was very tolerant of our English. The place was not too noisy. We could speak easily and I could definitely hear everyone at the table with ease. My friend and I split the ravioli and a steak. It was the perfect combination. The ravioli sauce was excellent with the ravioli but when the steak was dipped into the sauce THAT was absolute perfection. Seriously, this was a great combination. My husband enjoyed a rigatoni dish which he thoroughly enjoyed and my son had the rib eye which he never offered to share. For dessert we split the tiramisu. This was a HUGE portion and we enjoyed it thoroughly especially with the lemon cello which was served to us complimentary after our meal.

We did make s reservation, not sure if that's always needed but it's worth planning for. Our only critique that night was the music which was a little too electric rock that night for our taste. We attributed it to the one crabbier member of the family, an adult son who appeared to be unhappily stuck on dish duty that night and perhaps wanted to be out galavanting instead. It felt like part of real life in Italy and did not detract from an excellent food experience. And make sure to have their delicious panna cotta fir dessert, which I verified that mama made. It was exquisite!

They serve a bunch of different focaccia sandwiches with cheeses, meats, spreads, and other toppings. They also have slices of pizza and other options that they'll heat up and turn into sandwiches for you. Everything we had was really good, especially for how inexpensive it was. The staff didn't seem to speak a ton of English, but it was still very easy to order, and the menu was simple enough for an English speaker to understand. Overall, it's a great little stopping point if you're walking around the market and want something cheap, quick, and good. Nothing fancy, but exactly what you want from a little focaccia shop in Florence.
