Very good food, staff's and service. I really would recommend this Restaurant and for sure I wanna visit them again. We've tried the calzone, scapatelli (I'm not sure about the name lol) with pear sauce, stew beef with roasted potatoes, gelatto coffee and chocolate cake, was everything amazing.

My group of three just got drinks and were given a complimentary snack of chips. The drinks were really nice and my hot chocolate was very good. Service was also really on to it and friendly. Thank you staff. Then we went on to eat two dinners here, loved it and the staff are incredible. Wished we were staying longer so we could come more. Honestly the staff are so nice, thank you.

I’ve been here many times and it never disappoints. The food is always super good,, especially the pasta and pizza, fresh and full of flavor. The place has a nice, relaxed vibe and everything feels authentic. Definitely one of my go-to spots in Florence for good Italian food

Food was delicious. We had quite a spread (pizza, lasagna, truffle mash potatoes, Tuscan soup, minestrone soup, variety of appetizers, clam linguine, truffle ravioli) and nothing disappointed. The service with Martina had to have been the absolute top service we’ve ever received in Italy. She was very accommodating- taking our daughter to choose her drink, customizing a dish for our baby and extremely attentive to our table. She made the experience beyond delightful.
