Great place! Food portions are generous. Food was delicious. You can add truffle to any dish for 10 euros. Husbands steak was super tender and better than any others we have had around Rome and Florence. Friendly service, good AC, big, clean bathroom. Would recommend. read more

I booked this restaurant through Google and arrived early for my 7:30 reservation, expecting the cozy, atmospheric trattoria shown in the photos -- the one I had reserved. Instead, without even asking for my name or checking my reservation, a young host walked me out the door and across the street into a completely different dining area. The room I was placed in looked nothing like what was advertised: it was brightly lit, with paper napkins, cheap silverware, and visibly dirty walls. The whole place felt like a low-end lunch diner -- not a charming Florentine restaurant. They were blasting Highway to the Danger Zone and I Wanna Dance with Somebody while the main restaurant -- the one I thought I had booked -- played soft Italian music that actually fit the fine dining experience. The contrast was insulting. I was dressed in an upscale outfit appropriate for a refined dinner, yet I was treated as though I didn't belong. It felt discriminatory and dismissive. To make matters worse, at the end they tried to pressure me into tipping on the card machine -- in Italy, where tipping isn't even customary. The entire experience felt like a bait-and-switch, and I left feeling disrespected, singled out, and completely disappointed. read more

We were welcomed by Noemi who sat as at a nicely decorated table. She was very kind and efficient. The ambiance was lovely. The service was impeccable. The amount of time from order till service was very reasonable. The food was excellent. They didn't rush us, and our dessert was just as good as the filet and grilled vegetables. I would have no problems suggesting this place and going back anytime. Their wine list was extensive, and for 30€ we got a delicious Sangiovese. Overall, please do check them out! read more

This was my first stop when visiting Florence for the first time and it did not disappoint. We got a sampler platter as an appetizer to feed 6 people and it was gone within minutes. The pâté is mind blowing and recommend to anyone who has not had it before. The pastas were great and you can really tell that those noodles are home made and perfectly Al dente. Now for the Florentine steak. It was our second course and even though on the menu it says it feeds 2 people it fed a whole group of 6 and there were still leftovers. This portion is HUGE and delicious. It was priced at $100, but split between 6 it really was worth it. The service was great despite several tables being served. Highly recommend you check this neighborhood joint out! read more

Hearing that steaks were all the rage in Florence, I knew that I had to try it somewhere and decided here after seeing many positive reviews. They definitely did not disappoint! We got the Florence Steak cooked medium and although it came out a little rare, it was still very delicious. We got two steaks for a family of 5 and it was more than enough. One of them was leaner than the other, with the fattier steak being a bit more enjoyable personally. This was easily one of the best steaks that I have ever had and I can only recommend others to give it a try! The service was very friendly and welcoming, recommending us other dishes to try to pair along with the steak. The ambiance was also beautiful, being seated at an outdoor patio with lots of foliage. Come here if you are looking for great food and a great time! read more

Delicious food, terrific staff and great ambience. I ordered the Gnocchi with Porcini mushrooms, Speck and Brie and it was absolutely amazing. Soft and pillowy as gnocchi should be. The Bruschetta sampler was really nice too. My favorites were the classic tomato and the pear, Burrata, walnuts and honey. Highly recommend this place!! Great prices too. read more

"When should we have know better - the bright lights or 'Born in the USA'?" ^Thats the question we asked ourselves as we left after an hour and a half of terrible service and pandering, mediocre food. Would give this less than a 1 if I could. We fell hook, line, and sinker for a tourist trap that has to be manipulating its rating. We've had plenty of 3+ hour dinners on our Italy trip - some incredible some mediocre. None terrible, except this one. One appetizer and one pasta - over an hour and a half. A second couple near us had a spine and left while they were still waiting for their food. We were unable to do the same. Can't stress enough - I don't understand how this place has a rating of 2+ stars, let alone 4.4. The Al'Antico Vinaio at the train station is 20x the place this is. Restaurants at the Italy pavilion in Epcot are better than this. It's someplace that legitimately gives all restaurants in Florence or other Italian tourist cities a bad name. Avoid, avoid, avoid. read more

What a charming and welcoming restaurant we chose last night for our dinner. We had made a reservation for an early dinner and were warmly greeted by Jo and seated. We decided to share an appetizer and a first course and each have our own entrée. We started with the Dolce Burrata (Burrata crostone, pears, walnuts and honey) and then the Pici alla Senese (Pici with PGI Guanciale, fresh tomato and burrata). Both were yummy. We both heard the Chef Filets calling our names. The very large beef fillet with brandy in a Gorgonzola cream sauce with toasted walnuts was prepared perfectly. For a sweet ending, my husband had the homemade Tiramisu. read more

Our first experience when we arrived. Food was fine but service was abysmal. They were aggressively upselling everything. I ended up spending more on a very average meal here than many other upscale places. Crappy way to welcome tourists. I won't be back and wouldn't recommend it. read more

Trattoria Boboli has some of the best pasta that I have ever eaten. The rigatoni was outstanding. Also, definitely order a glass of wine, whether it be Pinot Grigio or Sangiovese. And, do not sleep on the appetizers here. The mozzarella, tomato, and eggplant dish with pesto was fantastic. read more

This is exactly what you want when you are visiting Italy. Doesn't be fooled by its off the beaten path location. It's a five minute walk from the Ponte Vecchio. In a lovely neighborhood where my wife and I have stayed over the last 20 years of visiting Florence. The food is spot on and the service is lovely. Check in on yelp and get free limoncello! Saluté! read more

If you want a real, authentic Italian dinner this is your place. The wild boar pasta is something I still can't stop thinking or talking about. The place was packed and only 1 or 2 servers were on, but we were taken such good care of that you couldn't even tell! Excellent wine selection, incredible pasta, and such a cozy and charming ambience. My favorite place I ate in all of Italy! read more

Definitely one of the best, most underrated restaurants in Florence! I frequented here when I studied abroad and the staff was always very friendly to my friends and I. They all spoke english and even helped us with our Italian pronunciations! Order the Tri Color Gnocchi and you won't be disappointed. Although you can't really go wrong with anything on the menu. Great ambiance too. See if you can sit in the outside garden. read more

Great food! Fun location. Very good value and the service was solid and comfortable. I would highly recommend for a nice dinner.

To start, just walking from the city centre to this hidden gem is amazing. Check our Langolino or one of the other many little bars on the way. You will also encounter so many little art shops and lovely spaces. The restaurant is so unassuming. we asked to be seated in the garden which is three levels of little nooks where people are eating. We sat down to the chefs menu and the regular, but I would recommend you ask the server for their suggestions. The pasta was magnificent and the cod was incredible. Caprese salad!!!!! And if you mention yelp, you will get a sweet treat at the end. I will definitely be back. read more

Located across the Argo River from the main Florence hub, Trattoria Boboli offers a local dining experience. During peak summer months, this venue is packed! If you dine here after 7pm, ask to sit upstairs on their outdoor patio. The restaurant itself is cozy and definitely has an intimate feel. They offer a variety of pastas, pizzas, appetizers and they have a larger than life wine list. Portions are giving so you won't leave here on an empty stomach and the prices are easy on the wallet! As an FYI - the owner/manager owner speaks English, Spanish & Italian. read more

A nice find... We had reservations down the road and we decided to look in on our way to our reservation. When we saw the quaintness of the restaurant, the menu and the owners we decided to forgo our scheduled dinner and stop here. The pasta dishes were on par with some of the best we had in Umbria and Tuscany. The service was friendly and dolce excellent. we will be back in spring to try again https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g187895-d2150138-r636201399-Trattoria_Boboli-Florence_Tuscany.html# read more

The steak in balsamic sauce was phenomenal. The classic red house wine was also amazing. The cheese platter came with two sides, a honey sauce and an onion sauce. Ask the staff and they will be happy to give you a recommendation on which cheese pairs well with what sauce. The staff was a perfect combination of attentive and giving of space. My friends and I also tried the mixed bruschetta (all 3 types) and they were delicious. Our favorite was the tomato bruschetta. My friends had the truffle pasta and said it was delicious. read more

Ok trattoria that's been around for nearly 40 years. Truffle tagliatelle was very good. Had a pork tomahawk for the very first time, which was like a giant pork chop. It was cooked a little more than I would have liked. Tasted try and was kind of chewy. Our waiter from Albania provided top notch friendly service though. He easily handled the dinner crowd by himself. Made it look so simple. read more

Named this like for being adjacent to the Boboli Gardens. This restaurant is on the opposite side of the river from Florence's main attractions. This neighborhood and Piazza Spirito I feel are the perfect place to enjoy Florence the way it was intended to be. The menus are handwritten and both the new owner (the original one passed away recently)and his wife spoke excellent English and were extremely accommodating. We came here 3 of 4 days in Rome. Once for a snack, once for lunch, and once for dinner. Each time was great. There was a large wine selection and some really relaxing reggae music playing in the background. The wifi was strong, the restaurant was cool despite no A/C, food plentiful. I didn't know there was a garden here until the last night--- you are taken through the kitchen area up stairs to a garden patio area which definitely has a romantic feel. Everyone inside or out seemed to enjoy the quiet atmosphere, the great service, and the great food. Things we had to eat: Prosciutto with melon - LARGE portion. Melon was perfectly ripe and prosciutto soft and salty. Buffalo Mozz and tomatoes- LARGE portion and the mozz was just as good as I had in Naples Orange Lemon Ravioli - just enough to fill you up. Creamy with a citrus flavor that was not overpowering Pasta w/ Deer meat Tortellini - can't remember which kind, but it was great Chicken and argula I can't remember the rest, but I do remember not being disappointed. Highly reccommend! read more

My teenage daughter and I are in Florence for ten days and so far in the first week have shared a pizza for lunch every day. We started with the spicy salami pizza here at Boboli and fell in love but then thought we should venture to others. Besides Gusta Pizza coming real close, today we came back to Boboli and were not disappointed!! First choice for us. Plus the staff is super cool and have an awesome play list of music - rock old and new. We love Trattoria Boboli! read more

Best truffle pasta ever!!! I absolutely love everything at this restaurant and the seating area outside is lovely.

An amazing experience!!!! The fresh pasta was extraordinary, the explanation as to the different kinds of pasta, cheese, and appetizers only enhanced the gastronomical experience. It was a local trAttoria without too many tourists and we seemed to have picked the best restaurant in the Borgo Santo Spirito area!!!! A must if you are ever in the side of Florence. read more
