The service was very friendly. Make sure to make a reservation as we saw a lot of people turned away. The house wine is delicious at a fantastic price. We focused on local dishes that turned out to be absolutely amazing. We were limited on time, I wish we would have been able tomproperly savoir everything. Highly recommend!

Staff were slow and soulless. My pasta was pleasant enough, but my partner's wild boar stew was bland, gristley and contained fragments of bone. We tried to speak to 2 staff about it, but they weren't interested. This was the most expensive, but the most disappointing meal we had in Florence.

Bene, the music was loud however, and some rude young people were yelling at their table. I'm sorry for the staff because they cannot tell customers to speak softly.

I think this was the best meal of my life! Everything on the regular menu is available gluten free. Absolutely everything was delicious. I’m not allergic to gluten, my husband is and it was superb. Outstanding service, comfortable, friendly, all around amazing. You should have dinner here even if gluten isn’t an issue.
