We are a family of four from Thailand. Overall, the food and atmosphere were wonderful, and I would happily give five stars for that. If the waiters could be a bit more welcoming with some smiles, it would make the experience truly perfect. We kindly hope the service can be improved.
The T-bone steak is a must-try signature dish in Florence. We went for the Chianina T-bone, listed on the menu as about 1.3 kg. The owner weighed it and said it was actually 1.4 kg, but after confirming with him that two of us could handle it, we gave it the go-ahead. A friendly tip: It'd be better if they weighed it in front of customers for full transparency and to avoid any mix-ups. If you have a smaller appetite, definitely let the owner know upfront. We ordered it medium-rare—the meat was tender and juicy, with a perfect balance of fat and lean that made it incredibly tasty. The portion was massive and left us totally satisfied. The pappardelle with wild boar sauce was just okay—nothing standout, and the serving size was on the smaller side. It was lunchtime with only about five tables occupied. Here's where it got a bit awkward: Every other table got a complimentary small jar of specialty salt from the staff, and some even received free desserts, but our table—the only one with Asian customers—got nothing. Sure, it's the restaurant's prerogative to offer gifts or not, but skipping just us felt pretty uncomfortable. At checkout, there was a minor glitch: On top of the standard charges for the steak, pasta, and cover fee, they accidentally added a water fee, which they fixed after we pointed it out. All in all, the steak was fantastic, but the service could use some polishing.
I had such an amazing time at this restaurant. The service was exceptional. The waiter offered us seats on the upper level which eas decorated beautifully. The ossobuco was sublime - it was the best osso buco that I have eaten anywhere. The vegetables were grilled to perfection.
It was a pretty decent Florentine steak experience. We ordered a steak with grilled mixed vegetables. It turned out the vegetables were a too burnt and almost inedible. We told the waiter what we felt about the vegetables. He offered us a discount at the final bill. We thought it was nice and fair to do so and we appreciated it greatly. Ps the tiramisu was also amazing. Great service and food 👍🏻
The people who served us seemed like the owners, I’m not sure, but either way, the service was excellent: warm, attentive, and friendly. We ordered the signature T-bone steak, recommended at medium, and the Carbonara pasta is a classic. We loved the white wine and Aperol Spritz as well. Overall, the food was good but not particularly outstanding. What really made the experience enjoyable was the great service.
