Overall a little disappointed :( I was really looking forward to treating myself to this meal, and the experience was a little flat. The food was good, but for spending over 100€ for just one person, I hoped for more. I ordered the ricotta and spinach stuffed pasta with butter and sage sauce and the Florentine tbone steak for one. The pasta was pretty incredible but small in portion. And the steak wasn’t the best I’ve had, but I enjoyed that the original flavors were respected with mild seasoning and only being lightly cooked. The most disappointing part I would say was the service. I don’t know if I was discriminated against for being on the young side (in my early 20s), however when the wine was brought out, I wasn’t shown the bottle or given a taste before pouring. And when my steak was served, they didn’t carve it like they did at the other tables. I also asked for balsamic with my bread and I never got it. Seemed like maybe they didn’t take my dining experience as seriously. I could be wrong, but just a warning to any young solo travelers out there looking to treat themselves. I will say, the door staff was very friendly and I was greeted kindly.

Ero già stato in questo ristorante e avevo mangiato bene. Questa sera ho preso una bistecca fiorentina media al sangue ma è arrivata fredda. Dopo averne mangiato un po’, ho chiamato il cameriere lamentando il problema. Ha detto subito che non andava bene e che l’avrebbe fatta riscaldare. A quel punto però ero già disgustato. Penso che sia grave che un ristorante come Buca Mario presenti un piatto così. Anche perché il costo non è trascurabile (60 euro).

Busy restaurant that seems geared towards industrial tourist service. Lack of attentive service, long delays, and okay to decent food.

Very pleasant staff but long delays in receiving our wine and other drinks, taking our food order, and, most importantly, the very long delay in serving the food. Half of group of 6 were finishing their meal before the other half received their food and only after complaining to the manager/owner and then the waiter did the second half receive their food. No explanation or apologies. We would return once more (no one is perfect) but we will be more vocal if the poor service repeats. We We willl th

We’ve been in Florence for 5 nights. This was by far our best meal. The food was absolutely delicious. You must have a reservation. We did the early seating. I get Tiramisu for dessert a lot in the US and will tell you this was the best I have ever had. Ciao Firenze. Off to Roma

Buca Mario!! When reserving I mentioned we were celebrating our 50th anniversary with our family of 8. On arrival we were greeted like royalty, shown to a private room filled with flowers and a beautiful fireplace. Attentive staff were wonderful. From the Artichoke salad, and Tuscan Pecorino appetizers to Pappardelle with Wild Boar and the Florentine T-Bone to name just some the wonderful plates to the desserts and wine selection were delicious. We can’t thank you enough for truly making this a celebration of a lifetime! Bellissimo! Grazie!

Wonderful experience with our large group. Service was excellent as was the food. The reservation was for 7pm but there is always a long line waiting to enter the restaurant. I suggest booking for 730 to avoid the line to get in when they open.

Perfetto! La migliore cena che abbiamo avuto! Sia per la qualità e la cura di tutto il team, specialmente di Aldo che ci ha fatto sentire a casa, la responsabile anche un tesoro, attenta ai minimi dettagli, ma soprattutto, la qualità della materia prima e dei piatti. L’unica parola che posso associare è perfezione.

We were a party of 10 and they couldn’t have looked after us better. The food is pricy but worth it - the spaghetti with truffle, in particular, was divine. Highly recommended.

Excellent customer service! The food came out fast and was very tasty. We started with the fresh artichoke salad, which was very delicious! My main course was the spaghetti with seafood and fresh squids dish, which was big and fresh. My daughter had the fettuccine with artichoke and mullet roe, which she loved! The menu has many interesting dishes and many choices of the dessert. We really appreciated the owner (a very charming lady) who greeted us as we were entering the restaurant. She also came by to each table later on and asking all customers about the food experience. Loved it! As we were leaving, she said good bye and thanking is for
