Another great local place for friend, drinks and relaxation. You could not ask for any better "small joint" experience. The service was warm. The. Ambiance intimate and warm. The food outstanding and fluids were flowing generously. I recommend this place and will go back every time I visit in the future. read more

Trattoria Buzzino - Trattorie Near Me - Florence, FI

Was there in Oct 25. Have worked with high-end restaurants thru my work. 1. Best dinner in 10 days Italy trip. 2. Best Lasagna ever. 3. Had 1998 Brunello Cab for $100 and in US - $220. 4. The owner and her friend who was my server were amazing. They sat with us and shared that family owned this place for $100 years. Amazing experience so I hope I inspire someone to visit them for this experience! read more

Recommended to me by a friend and I can see why!! This place is so cute! Very nice staff and the food was amazing. We got the risotto with asparagus, the gnocchi, and the lasagne. These 3 dishes complemented each other perfectly and were all amazing! We also got the melon with prosciutto which was fresh. Hugo spritz and Aperol spritz were fire as well. Great place, def reccomend. read more

As one of our first meals in a wonderful epicurean food city that Firenze is, we had to try Pappardelle Pasta with Wild Boar Ragu. We chose Trattoria Buzzino for this specialty and it was worth it. While I had the above-mentioned dish, my dining companions had Uovo al Pomodoro and the Pici (Carbonara?). Along with a few glasses of Chianti, a couple of cappuccinos and a Bruschetta appetizer we had a great meal. The staff here seemed to be a husband and wife team and were very congenial and helpful. The wall decor had older menus framed from long ago. Apparently there has been one form of Buzzino around since 1844! There is a lot of character in Trattoria Buzzino with great staff and food. I will return one day. read more

This was probably my favorite restaurant while visiting Rome/Florence. Small quaint spot near Uffizi, a few small tables outside and can probably fit 30 max inside. The (what I'd presume to be) owner was welcoming and while confused, didn't fully say no to me when I asked for tiramisu immediately before dinner as I simply needed it. It was awesome, creamier on top which I enjoyed and espresso plentiful. I got the "chicken nuggets" with lemon and spinach (lemon chicken breasts) which was well seasoned and tasted a perfect balance of lemon (almost a lemon cream sauce). My two friends split the florentine steak which they devoured (and loved). Felt very authentic here, staff rocked, would certainly return. read more

Jacqueline Moore just now New Dinner | €30-40 A Florentine treasure & by chance we stumbled upon it for drinks after a sumptious apperitivo elsewhere. We were drawn to the place by the bonhomie of the guests on the front terrace, the tenor belting out opera alongside passers by & the young American diner who joined him amidst clapping & cheers from passers by ( like us) & residents from the apartments upstairs. After being smitten by a concert from the Orchestra da Camera Fiorentina at the Zefferelli Musem nearby, we felt as if we had walked into one of the Great Man's film sets. Perhaps due to being tucked behind the magnificence of the Uffizi, Trattoria Buzzoni it is at first glance modest but this place is as worthy of the listed fine dining establishments that Firenze is proud of. In Scotland, we are also proud of our fine dining restaurants, excellent produce & hospitality but also, like Trattoria Buzzino we know how to welcome people in good eateries like long lost friends with conviviality borne of good wholesome food, laughter & joy. Their name befits the owners & the chefs....this place is A-Buzz with everything we need in life right now......the joy of life. Just like magic you will venture inside & you will realise what you have been missing! read more

Early evening is all about the spritz in Italy as we learned on our 2 week vacation there. The most famous one is the Aperol Spritz with prosecco, club soda, and Aperol liquor which is a uniquely flavored orange liquor with gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona (among other ingredients.) We had several of these before wandering by Trattoria Buzzino one day and saw the words "Limoncello Spritz" handwritten on the chalkboard menu. Hold on now...we can combine our favorite Italian after-dinner aperitif, with our new favorite before-dinner spritz habit? Count us in! We came here just for the Limoncello Spritz (which we learned later is a little more pervasive throughout Italy than we realized...we even had a meloncello spritz in one place!) and loved the experience. Buzzino sits on a main-ish street (Does the center of Florence even have main streets?) on the way from the train station, by the Dumo, close to the river. It's been there since 1844! Despite it's central location it doesn't look or feel touristy at all. Had we come for a meal, having observed what was delivered to the tables near us, we would have been treated to fantastic-looking Tuscan dishes. Trattoria Buzzino is a not-so-hidden, not exactly off the beaten path, but easily unnoticeable historic gem. Well worth a stop. read more

Wonderful place to eat like a local! Simple dishes with loads of flavor. Get the steak. The charcuterie for 2 is huge! All the sides are wonderful, great if you are gluten free. Service was excellent and the location just enough off the square so you can take a break from the action. We are on the late side 9:30 and the place was packed. read more

We finished a walking tour of Florence and our guide recommended Trattoria Buzzino for dinner. OMG, I'm so glad he did. It's a bit off the busy streets, which was nice. It's a quaint and small place. Outdoor seating was just one row of small 2-person tables along the sidewalk. Nothing elaborate; but that's not why you go to small, personal restaurants, is it? You go for the charm, the intimacy of being served by (it seemed) the owner and, most importantly, amazing food. And, this place has that in abundance! The grilled chicken dish was tasty and cooked perfectly. The pasta and wild boar was delicious. Although there was only two choices of wine (red or white), they both were home made. I had red and it was delicious- a well balanced blend of Sangiovese and Merlot that paired very well with the red sauce. To top it off, the service was prompt, personal and friendly. Who could ask for more? read more

Love everything about this place. Try their Risotto Ragu (not on the menu but they'll make it), it's delicious!

This was definitely a surprise. Recommended my a local, it is just outside the busy tourist plaza in Florence. Everything is made in house, from the pasta to the desserts. Everything tasted amazing. One of the best Lasagnas I have ever tasted. Very affordable dishes, but top notch quality. Best bang for your buck in Florence. When I return next year, this will be my first pit stop. read more

Our tour guide, Natalia, recommended this place for its food and prices. It's centrally located and has a few tables outside, but we sat inside by the front left window to cool off from the intense August heat. Pasta is all made fresh in-house and was cooked al dente. Daily special octopus dish was cooked to perfection - not rubbery at all. Black truffle pasta was much more flavorful than the one I ate in Siena a few days ago. Panna cotta had a hint of lemon to it which was interesting but it worked well with the mixed berries sauce (alternative options were chocolate or caramel sauce). Everything was great! If I had one suggest for improvement, it would have been the bread brought to the table before the meal... we expected it to be crustier and crunchy, like the other bread we have eaten so far during our trip. All in all, we recommend this restaurant for its great food and fair prices. We would come back! read more

Wow! What a fun, awesome restaurant! Food was excellent! People working there were personable and fun! We had a variety of dishes - all we excellent! For dessert some had tiramisu and the others had the flourless cake. They both were terrific. Can't recommend this place enough. If you are ever in Florence, Italy you have to visit this restaurant. You won't be disappointed! read more

Popped in here after our 5 hour adventure at the Uffizi for dinner. I ordered the buttered chicken which was a large portion and very tasty and the wife ordered the ravioli with cheese and spinach which were also very good. After a long day of hiking around Florence this was a welcome respite. Service was good and prices were reasonable but keep in mind they do charge a cover (coperto) and for bread. read more

Stopped in for lunch today based on the yelp reviews. I had the cheese and spinach ravioli. It was outstanding. I'd highly recommend it. Nice, smallish serving size. Perfect for lunch. My wife had the seafood risotto. She thought it was very tasty but it was a large portion. Our server was friendly and spoke excellent English. read more

1st they tricked us with tourist prices (15 Euro) on the window flyer, and then when we were seated, they told us those prices are no longer applicable. Instead of paying 15 Euros for a meal our bill, together, at the end of the night was 54 euros. A pure scam for the tourist that comes and goes. 2nd the food was horrible. The meat was full of bone and gristle and there was a very little edible meat. It was very expensive. We also got a pasta dish that was worse then almost anything we've had at the cheapest of restaurants in the United States. I can't emphasize enough how disappointed I was in the experience and the the food. I've lived in Italy throughout my life and knows good restaurants in Florence. This is not one of them. read more

We had the worst restaurant exoerience here. We do not recommend this place, the waiter treated us very bad and said us he was not going to speak English because we were in Italy that if we wanted to order something gotta be in Italian and that they even did not carry any foreign beer (birra) omg ! EXPENSIVE food, horrible service and you will feel discriminated by this stupid waiter working there. read more

So happy to hear "Papa" Buzzino's is still making the best meals we had in Florence. Can't wait to return!

After several trips to Florence, this is still my favorite place to eat diner and has become our traditional first meal! Excellent food, great neighborhood vibe, house wine is delicious and the prices are reasonable. Go, you will be glad you did! read more

The food is amazing, I came back 2 days in a row. I've been all over Italy and this place ranks among the best. It's also incredibly affordable compared to lots of other places in Florence. Yet still very classy inside the restaurant. The service is great by Johnny the waiter, he speaks great English and makes you feel like you are at home. I also saw many locals dinning here too. Stay away from the main squares of Florence and find the whole in the wall authentic Italian dinning experience you came to Italy for.... Here at Buzzino! read more

Loved the service! Amazing food! Hardly charged at all! What a great experience. We ordered off of the daily special menu, and had our big meal for lunch. All the way through, we were treated to very simple food, perfectly prepared and presented. This is like going home, if your mama is Italian and loves to cook. Very accommodating staff, comfortable setting, and amazing, wholesome, Tuscan food. So worth it, I'll be going back! read more

I was on the search for wild boar pasta, and found Trattoria Buzzino in a haze of art/church/museum-going-induced hunger. The cartoon of the boar hanging in the window got us. Of course, we ordered the pappardelle al cinghiale. While the portion size wasn't the best for the price (it is in an extremely touristy area, after all), the pasta was amazing and the sauce was good. Service was pleasant, but the restaurant feels a bit cramped, even by Italy standards. read more

Trust me, there are way better restaurants in Florence. This is a tourist trap. It's right behind the exit to the Uffizi gallery and we were hungry after waiting 2 hrs in line and walking inside the museum for 3.5hrs so we went for the first restaurant we found, which is this one. First, service was terrible. The old man and his wife were extremely grumpy they were shouting and being annoyed bc one of us needs gluten-free dish. Then we found out that they were serving us tap water inside the bottle they gave us and pretended it was spring water so they could charge us for it. I ordered the insalata mare or the seafood salad and the mussels and octopus were not fresh that I got a diarrhea afterwards. Overall terrible service and poor quality food. Guests from other tables looked equally dissatisfied with the restaurant. One table walked away and left 3/4 of the wine they had ordered. Avoid if you can and you can check their reviews on google maps to confirm. read more

A must in Florence. It is family owned. Father and son serve you. The father cooks the food during the day. I felt like I was at an Italian family diner! It is a Tuscan home cooked meal. It is a hidden jewel in this area. Wonderful veggies, pasta, and meat options! I told the owner I wanted an assortment of veggies. He brought me a plate of all they had there: Green beans, spinach, peas, zucchini, and mushrooms!!! It was a wonderful Tuscan experience and will eat there again!! read more

I came across this fantastic trattoria on my way home after having enjoyed the view from piazzale Michelangelo. Although it is just around-the-corner from Uffizi museum, one of the most famous tourist destinations in Florence, the atmosphere inside was incredibly comfortable (clearly NOT tourist-oriented, given the restaurant has history of over 170 years since its opening) and we had literary GREAT experience here in terms of food, service and cost performance. What we ordered:mixed crostini, spaghetti with clams, salmon cream pasta and tiramisu. I would strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area! read more

Came across this place by accident when walking around downtown Florence. It's a little hole in the wall that has homemade pasta. I LOVED the salmon pasta I ordered - it was one of the best pasta dishes I have ever eaten. My husband ordered the wild boar pasta and really enjoyed it.

After researching nearby restaurants we came across Trattoria Buzzino as it mentioned locals often eat here. I couldn't have been more impressed by the food, hospitality, options, and prices. We were greeted by the owner, Alessandro, who helped us craft an experience that we would enjoy. We had many meals here as we were so impressed. In fact we are here 3x over the course of a week. We had the melon, prosciutto, and mozzarella antipasto (which was amazing), the bread salad (amazing), the black truffle pasta, gnocchi with pesto, cod, clam pasta, chocolate cake, Pana cotta, and bread. It was all absolutely amazing. Alessandro was beyond helpful and was so very nice he generously provided us with homemade limoncello which had the most amazing flavor. If you are in Florence without a doubt eat here. You will be glad that you tried this amazing food. Tons of flavor and great prices. read more
