Pizza was delicious, house red was great, and the service was wonderful. I wish we had been hungry enough to order more food. Wide menu selection and prices were very reasonable, with just a small coperto fee.

This is one of the restaurants I visited while in Florence. That being said, well I found the service poor and food over price and subpar, I may have to have standards as to how service should be due to American serving standards. Not to say that all service in America is great cuz we all know that's not the truth. But I'm saying that culturally this may be a differing expectation. It was our first night in Florence and we were pretty tired. We wanted some authentic food but wanted to sit outside and enjoy the city since we had just arrived. Be aware of additional service fees being added to your bill in Italy. Cute outdoor seating. There's indoor seating, but most sat outdoor. In fact, outdoor seating was encouraged. I'm guessing the extra service fee is why people tell you not to tip. It seems to be built in but it's much different than a tip. My travel partner I had ordered three course meal. The first course came out pretty quickly. The second horse took at least a half hour to get brought out to her, no joke! When she asked about the second and third courses, the waiter acted as though she were bothering him. I must mention that though there are other people dining there, they weren't very busy. Again, this can be a differing expectation as House service should go but we were quite disappointed in both the food, the prices, and the service. We know the things cost more and you're up and willing to pay good money for good food but not top dollar for subpar service and bland food.

This one of those restaurants that at a simple glance you my have your doubts, not because it has anything negative, but it's location is not in the best view. It's in a little Piazza next to Santa Felicita Church, and like I said if you stand in front of it, you may be fooled by it's simple looks. After debating in which of the three restaurants located in the Piazza I would take a chance in, I decided for this one, because it had more Italians dining in. The prices are very competitive and the service is outstanding, incredibly tourist friendly and now how to make you feel confortable to ask any questions and even try your Italian. I must say, I had the one of BEST Risotto here, out of all the places I tried in Italy, from Milano, Arezzo, Vercelli, Torino, Verona and Cortona. Theirs was simple and yet so amazingly delicious !! It was a seafood Risotto for only 14,00€. I also had a octopus salad, that was to die for, with olive oil herbs and a touch of citrus, 10.00€. I would recommend this over most of all the high end restaurants in Florence, I went to three other supposedly great restaurants but were a let down, I didn't even want to write review, they weren't bad but for the price point they weren't good either.. This is my review anyhow of this one here, if you find yourself at the other end of Ponte Vecchio and want good honest food, accompanied by great service and good wine, than give Santa Felicita a try, you wont regret it.

Absolutely loved this place! All of our dishes were delicious and well priced, and the service was fast and friendly. Specifically the lasagna was described as "the best lasagna I've ever had" by my dad. My dessert crepe was delicious as well (see picture). Their menu is extensive and the outdoor seating is beautiful and right under the church in a cute little plaza. If you are walking around the sights of Florence, I absolutely recommend eating here!

Heavenly cherubs helping the chef.

We loved every bite of the spaghetti with clam sauce, seafood fettuccine, and the veal with porccinni mushrooms. Delightful location in the courtyard by a church with darling frescoes of angels delivering wine and bread from heaven.

The place is very beautiful. The food is ok, for the seafood pasta and risotto is too many little…read moreclams! In each plate was 1 shrimp, 2pieces of calamari and probably 30 pieces of little clams. I've had a better seafood pasta and risotto in Italy. Maybe other meals are delicious but definitely is not seafood pasta or risotto.

6/5 stars. Home…read moreowned, we think, by a husband and wife (no other staff were here tonight). Open till at least 11:30pm. And super close to the Duomo, water, and other tourist locations, but not a tourist trap guaranteed! One of my favorite Italian ristorantes so far in terms of taste, quality, concept, and value! Also my partner's FAVORITE restaurant so far and I've honestly never seen this man express beyond a nonchalant "it's good" about his food. He was actually describing the textures "perfectly cooked... In that transition phase between cooked and uncooked" (he means Al dente) and flavors of his spaghetti Pomodoro to me with shining eyes that only foodies have. Omg it was a memorable moment for both of us, the food was truly that delicious. Try one of their many prix fixe menus - 10, 15 (the only vegetarian friendly prix fixe), 20, or 24 (meat eaters only). Water or housemade wine (yes! The owner lady makes her own!) + primi + secondi. Unfortunately these options are not vegan friendly, but the regular menu has plenty of variety for everyone. Portion sizes here btw are HUGE. Unsalted "bland" bread characteristic of Tuscany was served to start, which is included in the mandatory 1.50 euro cover charge per person. However, not sure if owners were being kind, we were not charged this tonight. Partner ordered the 15 euro prix fixe (vegetarian available) dinner. Do try their pasta options - simple but finest quality and cooked to perfection. His eggplant parmesan secondi was smaller than expected, but perfect because the primi was gigantic. I ordered the seafood 20 euro prix fixe dinner and asked for dairy-free. Ricotta with prawns was creamy (but has no cream or butter or cheese upon my request) and huge and a bit spicy, but that's what made it so interesting. The salmon trout with salad secondi was smaller than expected, but perfect size overall because the risotto primi was so big. The salmon was average, not the best I've had, probably because it is not buttered, but on the drier end which I like. They take cards - MasterCard, visa, and american express. Will most likely be back :)
