These stars are solely for food and wine selection. Nobody should come to Italy expecting for waiters to be attentive no matter how high scale the restaurant.
Tuscany soup was a nice surprise. It was more of a thick tomato sauce in a bowl of crunchy fresh bread. Very flavorful
Crostini sandwich with truffle porcino and ham! Oh em gee!!! Grazie! Wine selection is great too!
Excellent wine selection. Before it after walk up to the top of the hill to piazzale Michelangelo. You will have a fantastic view of all of Florence! So you can build up an appetite or work off your meal

If I could give Zero stars I would. Bad service. Maybe because we are American but they let some locals cut in line and we had to wait 30 minutes for the waiter to take our order. We left after we were not offered water or a glass of wine. Went across the street for dinner and it was amazing. Do not come here if you want good food and service. Awful experience.

Nothing personal, but this restaurant did not suit my and my wife’s taste. We ordered a traditional crostoni with cheese, tomato and basil. It was good, but not great. I then had tagliatelle which was alright. Pretty plain and it took a long time to come. We actually thought they had forgotten about us. My wife had shark carpaccio which she did not like at all or even consider edible (extremely salty). I ended up eating her dish, which I thought was alright.
Maybe we ordered poorly, but we were not impressed. This experience was not something I would expect out of a place with 4+ stars.

The stuffed rabbit was perfectly cooked and tender. The truffle, ham and pecorino cheese crostini had wonderful mushrooms! The octopus too! They also have a great wine list for bottles or by the glass.

The star rating is for our food only bc our waitress was actually really sweet and it’s not her fault that the food was sh**. First time in Florence and I am soooooo disappointed. We had the ‘special’ ravioli as well as the ragu spaghetti– by far the worst meal I have had while in Italy (coming from Rome and Tuscany). Everything was extremely bland– no flavor at all. And to top it off it is expensive for the portion size– my husband received 5 ravioli for his meal and my plate was small-​medium sized, had 2 drinks (beer and wine) as well as the crostini which is hard to mess up (just melted cheese on bread really) and this all cost us over € 40! I was hungry but couldn’t even finish bc it was so bad. We are shocked that this place has had so many good reviews, maybe we caught them at a bad time? Either way there are many other places to go so pass on this one.

Roasted Pork and roasted Potatoe, sehr gut geschmeckt aber kleine Tapas Portionen zu normalen Preisen zu 9 EUR, insgesamt aber absolut zu empfehlen.

The crostini is amazing here. The ambience is incredible with outdoor seating. Came here after seeing the piazza de Michelangelo. Was just perfect. Staff is friendly and prices very fair

Juste un miracle!
Une petite terrasse au bord d’une rue calme, on s’assied on commande et on est heureux. Une cuisine et des vins dignes d’un grand restaurant étoilé pour des prix très raisonnable vu la qualité.
Des plats originaux avec des produits de qualité et une présentation impeccable !
Mon coup de cœur a Florence!

One of the best Enotecas in town. Great selection of wine s by the glass and a variety of plates of nibbles and eats of top quality tuscan foods. Pleasant ambience, attentive service, takes charge cards. Can source wines from all over and ship to where ever allows it. Five –star place.

We stopped here because of a recommendation in the New York Times. We were pleased to find moderate prices for delicious food and wine. There were adequate vegetarian options. The wait staff was helpful, when you could get a hold of them (but I suspect that’s just an Italian thing).

My gf and I made a pit stop here on our way to Piazzale Michelangelo — and I’m super glad we did.
I was initially wary of this place bc it was right along the path to the Plaza, so I obviously suspected subpar service and food for large dolla billlzzzzzz. Fortunately, we were greeted with yummy, moderately priced wine, and some delicious charcuterie. We took advantage of the outdoors seating on the gorgeous evening, so that added to the experience.
The waitstaff was friendly and they accept credit card! Plus free wifi! Great place to stop for a snack and some vino! :)

This place was quite good and one that I would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a drink if they’re in the Piazza Michelangelo area. They have a really long and extensive wine list – everyone seems to talk about their cheap prices my wine was 3.5 euros for a glass of a basic Moscato d’Asti (Piedmont)… which is kind of overpriced if you ask me, but it was good nonetheless. I think you go more for the ambience and the ability to just about have any type of wine that you want to drink without having to try too hard.
I also decide to order some food since we were there. I got the crostini mix which was only 6 euros but SO worth. I got four giant crostinis of flavors that change daily. Mine were foie gras, mushrooms, brie cheese, and goat cheese. Absolutely worth it and all very delicious. My favorite was definitely the mushroom crostini though, great mix of a variety of flavors.
tl;dr come for a great selection of wine, really not as cheap as others say, but worth the price and good atmosphere. also a free wifi spot!

Service was unusually slow, even by Italian standards and the food was neither traditional or inspiring. We has the pici with ragu — very salty and dry, burrata with vegetables — basically a glob of cheese and some steamed spinach, and the prosciutto and pecorino — neither were of very good quality.
On the positive side, the place is comforate blue and has a terrific patio with a view of the old gates to the city.

My wife and I agreed that the best meal we had in Florence was lunch at Fuori Porta.
It’s a perfect place to stop if you’re taking the walk to San Miniato. The dishes are classic without being overly traditional, and they’re perfectly prepared with fresh ingredients.
It’s situated on a quiet street right outside of the old city walls, and it was pleasant to eat at one of their outdoor tables.
The service was also very friendly, casual and efficient.

This place is located in a very romantic location in the San Niccolo area of Florence, one of my favorite areas of Florence, You really can’t get a better location in my book and I love gazing at the city walls while I sip my wine. I recommend sitting outdoors if the weather is good.
Pros:
Amazing wine list with tons of choices and the right prices. Vermentino from Sardegna, a red from Verona, take your pic and they likely have it. This place can also be a place just to share a bottle with friends with a few crostoni. They also have a small menu which I appreciate, this means they can specialize in their dishes which I find refreshing in a tourist-​saturated menu happy city like Firenze. We had a delicious cheese and salami plate and roasted potatoes which were perfect. Desserts were noteworthy as well, torta with semolino was really nice!
Cons: service can be a bit slow but it depends on the night. Plus the portions for the price for our cheese and cured meat place was way off. While both were good, We were both very hungry after sharing the two plus a side and they definitely could be more generous considering this runs at least 11⁄12 euros for each, In this case, I would have appreciate less ‘art’ and more substance.
Conclusion — make this your wine stop while visiting the city, plus its on the way to Piazzale Michelangelo which means you may NEED A wine break on that fun ‘hike’

Best meal we had so far in Italy. Off the beaten path, away from the crazy touristy areas but still not far from the city (just over the Ponte al Grazie bridge). Try the Crostoni with truffle sauce, mushroom, ham, and scamorza cheese… Outstanding!!!

Went here for the first time recently and loved it! Nice seasonal menu, indoor & outdoor seating. Try the Crostone — you choose from a variety of topping options and then the cheese that they make it with! Open between lunch & dinner (orario continuato) with some menu items unavailable

This was our least enjoyable meal in Florence. We ordered crostones that lacked flavor. The service was marginal at best. It’s probably a good place for cocktails on the patio but we suggest alternatives for food. We had a great meal the next day a couple of blocks up the street.

Our friends brought us here and the place is great. It is off the beaten path on the other side of the river from downtown Florence. There was no problem getting a seat as it is kind of a small place. There is outdoor seating as well.
I had the salumi plate as an appetizer and that is definitely a shareable plate. There was so much meat and a great variety too. For my main course, I had two halves of two separate dishes. The had the ragu pasta and the baked cheese dish. Both were excellent. The baked cheese was unique and the pasta was so fresh!
Wine is so cheap here and good selection. The dessert was so so and that was the reason this wasn’t a 5 star. I had the crème brûlée.

The street from Piazzale Michelangelo wound me toward Enoteca Fuori Porta, a delightful restaurant filled with locals. That was an excellent sign. That and the cool air emanating from inside.
I peeled my backpack and took a seat inside. There were a few people inside including a man and his dog. I love dogs and it’s neat to see so many dog friendly establishments in Europe. This place even had a water dish for this cute dog.
I ordered the tortelli di pecorino e pere allo zafferano e papavero (ravioli of pecorino and pears with saffron and poppy) and a 2009 Frescobaldi Chianti (€ 3). When in Florence, I learned to order the chianti.
It was a grand meal. Simple, prepared well, and was filling. The tortelli (€ 10) arrived remarkably fast accompanied by grated parmesan cheese. It was a sun yellow pasta which reminded me of Tuscan yellow. The sauce was a lighter shade and dotted with poppy seeds. The cheese was light, slightly nutty flavor and crumbly. I couldn’t taste the pear, but wonder if the pecorino and pear neutralized each other? Surcharge: € 1.50.
And watching the interactions, I noticed the familiarity between guests and waitstaff. It’s nice to know a restaurant has regulars. In the end, climbing down walls pays off.
