Hands down the best appetizer, it was delicious. We ordered a couple of their seasonal drinks, along with the lavender bees knees. After I ordered mine and had my boyfriend try it, he also ordered one. Then we ordered a third to split. The second night we were able to be seated at a table and order dinner. Absolutely delicious. Boyfriend ordered the 10oz steak. It was cooked perfectly to order and he really enjoyed the mashed potatoes and asparagus it came with. I ordered the steamer clams and they were the best I've ever had. So flavorful, fresh, and the broth was delicious, especially with the focaccia bread it came with. We'd highly recommend this restaurant, it's definitely a hidden gem in Florence.

We were greeted immediately when we walked in. I ordered an Italian soda with peach and strawberry and my friend ordered a cappuccino. My drink was great! It was creamy and fresh tasting. It was made with syrup but it was still so good and refreshing after a long day with lots of walking. They have some housemade treats too, which I've had before and they were good. Since we got there so late in the day they didn't have much available, but last time I got a delicious peanut butter bar that blew me away. The staff were all very friendly and seemed happy. There is a small space with tables inside and a cute little garden outside with a few more tables. The prices were reasonable, about on-par for a tourist town. They have a small parking lot and there is plenty of street parking. The building is a bit hidden so it can be hard to spot if you're on foot but they put signs out when they're open to help people to find. If you're looking for a cute spot to get a treat and a drink, stop in here! They are lovely and have tasty treats.

We walked in about 20 minutes before closing and were immediately greeted by the owner. He was very friendly and helpful. My husband was admiring the huge mixer in the lobby, and the owner brought up a picture on his phone of his wife standing by their even bigger mixer in the back. Super cool. We ended up ordering 4 donuts... chocolate frosted buttermilk bar, maple frosted buttermilk bar, regular old fashioned and chocolate frosted old fashioned. Since we showed up so close to closing, he threw in a couple extra donuts on the house! So nice! All the donuts were super fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

Located in a cute part of town, Nosh has a charming, quaint feel with warm, inviting decor. When we arrived, our table was already set with a candle and flowers, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our server, Bri, was fantastic! She was fun, outgoing, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what she does. The service was great, and the food came out right on time. And the food? Excellent! The flavors and sauces were spot-on, perfectly balanced, and not overdone. Everyone was kind, welcoming, and accommodating, making the whole experience that much better. Our only suggestion for the owner would be to consider adding seat cushions to the metal chairs. They're cute, but a little cold and hard! Other than that, everything was wonderful. We'd absolutely come back and highly recommend Nosh if you're looking for a great meal and a welcoming atmosphere!

With a storm blowing in we were craving some clam chowder. Homegrown did satisfy that craving! Unfortunately, service was a little slow because there was only one waiter. Luckily, we were in no rush. Appearance - The warm string lights created a nice, cozy vibe. (Maybe the rained helped too!) Overall, the food was plated well. Taste- Garlic Parmesan fries- mmm so delicious with a yummy aioli to dip them in! Would highly recommend! Caution if you're sensitive to garlic... be aware that the parmesan can easily be mistaken for garlic chunks! Steamers- My husband got this and said it was very fresh and he enjoyed the broth. I tried it but I'm not a huge wine person and to me the broth was very heavy wine flavored. Fried Fish Cod Sandwich- Unfortunately I learned on this outing that I don't really love cod. The fish on this sandwich was not very meaty.

Our entrees were flavorless and honestly a little scary looking. My boyfriend ordered the prime rib special they had. He ordered it medium rare and it came out grey. His baked potato tasted like corn bread?? The best thing was the salad and that was sub-par. I ordered the taco salad. It came out with a gigantic glob of sour cream and guacamole, which I love so I was excited. The chicken tasted like they boiled chicken, shredded it, and put it on the lettuce. That and the toppings had zero seasoning and flavor. Overall, very disappointed for an $80 dinner.

We ended up getting a giant half Hawaiian with white sauce, and half Abby's Special. I decided to try the white sauce on the Hawaiian this time because red sauce sometimes gives me heartburn. Well it was a mistake. The pizza wasn't as good as it usually is, and for some reason there were less toppings and no cheese. Bummer! Overall, a normal Abby's experience. Clean restaurant, helpful staff and good food. I would have mentioned the missing cheese while we were there, but I didn't realize what was missing until I looked at my previous photos from past visits. I may just have to stick to the original Hawaiian recipe and not change the sauce next time...
