Florence steak
Ana R.

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!

Florence Steak - Medium
John M.

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!

Tiramisú
Leslie R.

This place was really good! Reservations online were really easy to make. The pasta tasted handmade in the carbonara. Wait staff were friendly and the food came out quickly. The tiramisu here was soo good. Definitely our #1 pick in Florence.

Gnocchi w/ Porcini, Speck & Brie
Dimitri N.

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.

the Pici alla Senese (Pici with PGI Guanciale, fresh tomato and burrata).
Maggi R.

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.

Rigatoni in meat sauce, spinach, tordelli with pancetta and parmigiana.
Tom N.

Absolutely fabulous food, wonderful service, beautiful terrace for eating. We stumbled into this neighborhood eatery going from the Boboli gardens to the Ponte Vecchio. Wonderful find.

Pici all' senese. Some of the best noodles I have had! Also their best seller.
Sam S.

Great service, amazing food, the best vibe! Come eat here!! I have been here multiple times and it never disappoints. Pici all' senese is my all time favorite. Bruschetta and pear & cheese appetizer are delicious.

Tenderloin steak
Laura B.

The environment was good and the food was great. A little under salt - which seems to be typical in Italy in genera. But overall really recommend. I would give it 4.5 stars!

Rigatoni with meat sauce
Matthew H.

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.

Pizza Napoli. 8 €8. Amazing.
Tim M.

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!

Nicole C.

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.

Chefs menu!!!!
Kendra T.

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.

Pasta, fresh bread, and roasted potatoes. Carbs don't count in Italy.

It's close enough to the lively, bustling part of Firenze to feel connected, yet just far enough to escape the city's never-ending wave of tourists. The service was incredible, and the owner (I'm pretty sure it was the owner?) brought so much energy that he single-handedly turned the whole place into an eclectic little spot during the "rush hour" of the evening. The menu was solid, if a bit "generic" at times. While everything we ordered was delicious, nothing at Trattoria Giovanni felt like a dish you couldn't find elsewhere... and honestly, that's perfectly fine! It was traditional, comforting, and exactly what we were craving. The plate of cured meats and cheese was phenomenal, a great start to the meal. The pastas were really good as well, though one of the meat dishes had a slightly off texture, with the chunks of meat a bit overcooked. All in all, we loved our meal and would definitely recommend this spot if you're in Florence.

Osteria del Cinghiale quickly popped up on my radar, so I asked the concierge at our hotel to make us a reservation. It's clearly a very popular spot--when we arrived, there was already a line up at the door. The Mr. had the sirloin strip steak with roasted potatoes. I had the beef filet with Chianti sauce as well as roasted potatoes. Our steaks were cooked to a perfect medium rare and the potatoes were so satisfying. We shared an order of grilled vegetables and had a carafe of the house red which we enjoyed. In fact, we loved everything about our experience. The food, the vibe, the service was all amazing! For dessert, we shared the tiramisu and the strawberries with mascarpone cream. The tiramisu was the best we've ever tasted anywhere. In our two week's stay in Italy, this was one of our favorite meals of the trip! To avoid disappointment, please make a reservation.

They made space for our party of 5 right in the center of a loud and and lively main dining room... where the energy and spark was so contagious. Just a marvelous setting for a night in Florence. Prepared dishes were family style. Every single choice was tasty good. The bread and bottles of Brunelo Montalcinos kept the conversation going. Florentine steak was not dry and forgettable. It went well with other pasta dishes like the Tagliatelle Con Ragù Di Coniglio or the Osso bucco, Pappardelle Al Ragù Di Cinghiale . . . of course with the Brunello & Chiati Classico The dining that night felt intimate yet party-like with nary a wiggle room. You don't get that often in the U.S. We never ever felt rushed despite the wait crowd out the door. Manager there was especially accomodating to us tourists. My 5 star rating has a lot to do with their boundless can-do spirit. A country house vibe rustic food with an outsized Italian howdy y'all. We will be back

It didn't start getting super busy until ~9pm - which is the usual Italian dining hour. We had the: *Prosciutto del Casentino - Le Selve di Vallolmo (Specialty Tuscan Ham of Free Range Grey Pork of Casentino, Tuscany (Slow Food Awarded Ingredients)) - MOVE OVER IBERICO. This was incredible - just melt in your mouth. You have to get this! *Ravioli di Peposo di Manzo al Burro e Timo (Ravioli Stuffed with Stewed Peppered Beef and Tossed in Butter and Thyme) - Peposo is a classic Tuscan dish that's usually tough cuts of meat cooked down in Chianti wine. Loved this 'twist' on a classic dish. They also so kindly split this portion for us which was perfect. The Peposo was perfection; if they just had Peposo as a dish, I'd order it! *Bistecca dell'Osteria (House Specialty Bone In Steak) - the star of the show!! While this isn't Chianni cattle or anything, this was fantastic piece of steak. Perfectly executed at medium rare. Love that the menu states "If you prefer your meat more so well done we would be happy to recommend another dish to you." Ha. Make sure you order a BOTTLE of wine! They have GREAT local options at super reasonable price points.

Restaurant is nice with maybe 6-7 tables inside but service was quite slow. We made reservations in advance but a few others were lucky to walk in and get a seat. Enjoyed the pork cutlet as it was cooked perfect and had great flavors but the other pasta and octopus items we had were very small portions and tasted just ok and we left hungry. The bistecca looked amazing and large portion size from what I saw at other tables but didnt get to try that this time around.

Our first choice was the green peppercorns and Cognac cream covering a steak with rosemary potatoes. This was the best dishes of our 17 day excursion. The steak was perfect while the sauce was incredibly delicious. The steak with argula salad was our second choice. It was also savory and highly recommended.
