Wandering the lovely streets of Firenze, hot, hungry & trying to decide on a place for lunch; I saw waitstaff who were all smiling as they darted in & out. That was the only thing I spotted; but it made deciding easier. Went in & had a truly succulent tartufo pizza, covered in obviously fresh mushrooms with an icy glass of rose bubbly. So rich & savory, but too much for this tired woman to finish more than half, if I wanted dessert. The pistachio ice cream was topped by freshly ground hazelnuts & I dove into it. Lovely woman behind the bar whipped up an espresso martini that was perfectly balanced; not so sweet as to overwhelm my ice cream, not too bitter. Redolent with freshly ground coffee beans. Met a family from Germany who were coming back for a 2nd day to Teatro. Every inch of the restaurant was spotless & all the employees were friendly & kind to an American with only about 5 phrases in Italian. Prices were quite reasonable for the excellent quality they serve. I know I'll be back to Italy, & I'll be looking for Teatro Niccolini again! Grazie mille! read more
