10/10 -- The BEST Truffle Burger in Italy (Maybe the U.S. Too)…read moreMy wife and I did not expect to find a gourmet burger in Florence that beats major spots back home in California -- but this place did exactly that. The truffle burger? Hands down the best we've had in Italy, and honestly better than most in the U.S. The spicy garlic fries were insane -- crispy, bold, and addictive. If you're tired of pasta and pizza, this is the place you need. Service was 10/10, food was 10/10, and Alex delivered an amazing American-style experience right in Florence. Absolutely worth it. A must-try.

Yes yes yes. First, found this place while hunting down the beer scene in a country full of wine…read more Wine is great, but beer is awesome. Anyway, started at this place trying a couple of the many beers on draft. Staff was friendly and the place wasn't super busy at the time. Noticed a bunch of stuff on the menu looked good, but had already eaten so just made a note to come back. Boy I'm glad I did. Ended up coming back several times, more than any other spot due to the good beer, great burgers & fries but ultimately the awesome staff. The night crew, the day crew, managers - all of them were amazing. Even when bringing our dogs in they were super friendly and even made the pups a small meat patty of their own. C'mon, how cool is that?!?!? Anyway, if you're visiting Firenze and either want something different or even just want to sit back & take in a sporting event, cold beer, and relax, yes, this is the place.

He went out of his way to help us with selecting and sampling different brews. He even compt us French fries. There were over 20 Birre on the wall and about 10 taps. I ordered a stout, excellent. We did not eat there, so I can't rate the food, only the fries.

So when we…read morewent to Florence, I checked out all the notable beer places on google and Alibi was the first one we went to (it's closest to the train station.) Well, they really set my expectations high for the rest of my list. Between us, we had about six different types of beer, each more delicious than the last. And we ordered food as well - her burrito was fine, if unexciting, but my cheeseburger with an egg on it was honestly the best burger I've had in a long time. The Italian cheese on it was phenomenal. We had to go back before we left cause it was just so good. The bartenders were friendly and helpful, and the bar itself was kinda cool and industrial, but you're going here for the beer and the food. You won't be disappointed.

Although there's nothing particularly 'Italian' about this bar - it has that BrewDog vibe which could have been plopped down from anywhere on the globe - it's a great, casual place to pop in for a pint. Although we didn't try the food, we did indulge in a few rounds. The beer is always fun and intriguing, as expected from the brewery. A worthy way to kick up your feet and while away some time.

Some of these next few places may not be as detailed. Sorry I'm so behind, when I hit Florence I…read morethink, Yelp just stopped working for me. Couldn't log on the app, couldn't use the website. 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.

This is handsdown the best sandwich I have ever had in my life. We almost didn't go in because they…read morewere not as busy as the one a few doors down that had a line around the corner. But luckily there was a customer that overheard us talking from Texas and told us that this was highly recommended by their tour guide. So we decided to go in, we had a little bit of a language barrier and we thought we ordered one sandwich to share but we ended up ordering two different sandwiches and I'm glad we did because they were both incredible. They literally have two tables at the very back of the restaurant by this centuries old brick wall. what are the tables was literally getting up as we were checking out so we were able to go back there and sit. I highly recommend this place instead of waiting for the other place around the corner.

The servers are so nice and funny here. We really enjoyed our server particularly, but everyone was kind. I had gone back and forth all day about whether I wanted to try the Florentine steak, but I'm glad that we did. It was gorgeously cooked and well seasoned. The sides of potatoes and spinach were also stellar - I eat a lot of potatoes and those were at the top of my list. Highly recommend, and get the steak. It's cheaper here than other places also!

The evening we were there, we were the only Americans so don't think this is just where Americans go. I ordered a Cosmo and it was fantastic with a bit of a kick. For my second drink I ordered the Do you speak Italian and umm wow...I think it knocked me off my stool. The bartender warned me in advance but I was up for anything. My friend ordered the Save the Cranberry beer which she said was "pretty legit" and angry bastard which is funny I remember that being a thing in the states... People were playing darts and they had an open area that was great for people watching...unless everyone was outside smoking. Oh and the tv played 90s alternative videos...I got nostalgic over some Nada Surf.

These burgers are crraaaaaazzyyyyy!!…read more Was brought here by a local as I once again needed a break from Tuscan cuisine, and a little slice of home. A hamburger and fries. Ha. I was obviously skeptical, especially when this place was located pretty far outside of the touristy area and I seemed to be the only one that didn't speak Italian in the place. The waitress could hardly speak English which I totally get and not a bad thing, but just trying to set the scene for y'all. The vibe of the place was Inspector gadget meets a Yardhouse. If you don't know what Yardhouse is, I can't blame you. It's a slightly upscale american bar/burger joint. I got the Perfect Burger, and it was ENORMOUS. Enough to feed a family of 3. Maybe 3 and a half. It was just one step shy of perfect. I was so rattled that I struggled even getting a quality pic of it. That's on me. I would consider this an elite burger back home!!

You're certain to be impressed. So, everyone told me not to eat burgers while traveling in Italy... but, after getting a bit tired of pasta, I did just that--twice! And, both times, I was not let down. One of those burger experiences was at Drogheria--a place that's a bit off the beaten path in Florence but definitely worth walking the extra distance for. For my burger, I tried the Supertuscanaccio (new according to their menu). This burger featured a burger patty as well as mushrooms, proscuitto, and pecorino mugellano cheese... all served on grilled panini-style bread! TASTY! Tony tried the Brunch Burger, which featured scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese on the burger! He enjoyed his burger just as much as I did. Note that we happened to hit up Drogheria for Sunday Brunch, which I later learned is another thing they're known for besides burgers. Check this place out if you've been in Florence for a while and jonesing for a good burger! You'll definitely be glad you did!

We came into a place with a relaxed atmosphere, and lots of American oldies music - i was already a fan! First off: wine. We got a bottle of Chianti to kick the night off. Pretty solid choice! In our party we ordered the risotto pasta and a different pasta with a ragu/wild boar sauce. I had the risotto, which didn't do it for me because it was a little underflavored, however the ragu pasta my friends had was amazing. Do try that if you go there! The piece de resistance was definitely the pistachio cheesecake. Soooo good, and totally worth it! We got a round of limocello from the owner, which is was my first time trying it. Also not my favorite, but we appreciated the gesture. We also got a chance to hang out with the owner, who's super personable and fun to talk to! Honestly, it was such a fun first night in Florence with pretty decent food, I'd definitely stop by again if I get the chance!
