The service was a little slow, our waiter was sick, and it was very loud inside just from the conversations of the groups around us. All in all it was good and close to our hotel which was the real bonus.

Bavarian dream in the Florentine suburbs! I have been here twice and really liked it both time,…read moreit's like a little bit of Oktoberfest on a lively stretch of via aretina. Make reservations as it does get very crowded, I would absolutely order the fried bread with cheese as a starter which is absolutely amazing, and full of garlic. I could not get enough of this! I got the 'piatto bavarese' that was a unique plate with potatoes, a fried egg, wurstel and cheese. It was absolutely awesome and the perfect entree. Also their variety of Bavarian sausages are quite good as well. You must also get the warm 'brezel' (large soft pretzels). They are warm and gorgeous, plus they gave us the cutest little wooden stand to hold our pretzels on the center of our table. You can order huge half liter or liter beers, or even a snake bite ( I had a giggle when they wrote 'snackbite' on their menu). which is a mix of cider and beer. The strudel is good but likely you will be too full to finish. Very impressed, this is way better than the other hofbrau place near piazza della liberta. Great place to go with friends and kid-friendly.

It's not easy to find a good place to pick up some non-Italian food in Tuscany, especially outside…read moreof Florence city but Lowengrube is excellent for when you're in the mood for some good Bavarian ambience and dining! It's strange location in the industrial zone of Limite, a tiny town not far from Empoli, doesn't change the fact that it's a favorite with locals and is always jam-packed on weekends. If you don't book on a Friday or Saturday evening, you are almost sure to get turned away at the door. The menu is almost completely Bavarian complete with several sausage platter combinations, goulasche, roasted/grilled meats, pretzels along with hamburgers and some (but not many) pasta dishes and pizzas. The beer menu is exhaustive, unfortunately I'm not a beer fan but the friends that I've gone with are always happy with the selection. I've been several times including last night and they had some Oktoberfest brews available. The place is reminiscent of German restaurants, completely in wood and the servers are all dressed in traditional Bavarian garb. I've tried the sausages/hot-dogs which are are excellent and usually served with a large pretzel, cabbage salad (they call it "crauti" which implies sauerkraut but it's not sauerkraut but rather just thinly sliced raw cabbage) and potatoes. My favorite dish is the goulasche, hearty and filling. The service is good, the waiters are all young and friendly (not necessarily common in Italy) and there're quick in the kitchen. If you're not into packed places with crowds of young people, then avoid the weekends. During weeknights it's much better and a good family restaurant as it also has a little kinder room with some toys for the little ones. The bathrooms are also clean which is a big plus. All in all for Italy I'd say this place is excellent! It's definitely where I go when I'm craving something different from the usual Italian meal!
