Nando was an incredible waiter! Love the food and the service. Restaurant was lively and loud, with happy people. We didn’t mind the noise at all. Made for a fun dining experience! Was gifted an apron on the way out the door!
Marvelous restaurant, delicious food, great experience! I seriously recomend it!
This gem has remained wonderful over many years since our first of many visits - the food is amazing the atmosphere is amazing and the staff are super amazing. If you visit Florence you must book a dinner here - you’ll not forget the experience!
This is my second time visiting Buca Mario and it was just as delicious, comfortable and special as I remembered. The food is incredible! Thank you!
Amazing Bistecca! Very kind staff! Second time in Buca, always great time!
Ottimo posto da visitare. Piatti buonissimi, specialmente i primi e la carne!
l'esperienza culinaria più straordinaria di sempre con la nostra famiglia. Aldo il nostro cameriere lo ha reso così memorabile e il cibo era delizioso. Un'esperienza che non dimenticheremo mai
Generous portions and excellent service. cheese platter and fried zucchini were nice starters. Osso buco and pasta dishes were very good, but the T-bone steak was under cooked and we weren’t asked if we wanted to take home the leftovers. Desserts were mediocre. I’ve had better meals for the price.
We loved it! Wonderful food, fantastic atmosphere and the staff couldn't be friendlier.
Tutti molto gentili e professionali! Perfino un Souvenir😉 Saluti Gabriela
It was a fantastic experience for me and for my son. We will certainly miss the T-bone steak and comeback some day.
The appetizer hasn't arrived yet, the main course has already arrived. The service attitude is average, maybe the business is too good. I may not come again next time.
Unbelievable experience! The food and wine were top notch!!! If you are ever in Florence and do not stop here for dinner, you’re doing Florence wrong. Our waiter was amazing as well.
Experiencia maravilhosa! Melhor restaurante de Florença !! Vale muito a pena conhecer
Buca Mario’s continues to be a wonderful food experience. Not only are the staff amazing especially Aldo, but the food is incredible!! It is a MUST DO when in Florence!! Grazie per tutti!!
Overall the food was delicious, but the steak was a bit tough. Even rare, it was very chewy. The other dishes were fantastic. The atmosphere was very vibey, but HOT! 🥵 We enjoyed our experience, but it wasn’t as amazing as I had hoped.
This has been the best restaurant my family and I have been to in Italy. From the food to the service. Got to talk to the owners and it’s was like we were with family. Will definitely be coming back not only to Florence but to Buca Mario!
Excelente comida y servicio. Nos atendió Nando y fue increíble su cariño y cordialidad
The entire staff was very friendly, and the steak was delicious.
Food and service were amazing , everything was exquisite. I recommend it 100%
Amazing food and service! The entire experience was wonderful. Definitely recommend and will be coming back soon.
This place is extremely overhyped. The staff is not friendly, and the reviews are true about them seating all of the American tourists in a far back room. The Florentine Steak is basically raw, cold in the middle. It was painful to get through. We were really looking forward to the experience but ended up not getting out of the place fast enough.
Eccezionale come sempre da buca Mario è una garanzia ottima
A wonderful, truly authentic Italian experience! The owner was very welcoming, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. We cannot wait to return!
Ottima cena e ottimo servizio veloce e cordiale prezzo in linea
Delicious, friendly, a wonderful evening all the way around. Go! You will not be disappointed!!
Outstanding service. Excellent food. Wonderful experience for the entire family. Highly recommend.
Fabulous food, artichoke hearts arugula and gorgonzola cream on bread! Fried zucchini flowers, lamb chops, Florintine tripe, tagliatelle with wild boea sauce, all to die for. Beautiful restaurant and Aldo, our server sang to us again and again. Yes, he was a super-server as well. Oh, great wine list, too!
Everything was fine, except the waiter seemed to rush us in order to turn the table.
The food was amazing. We ordered 2 firsts and 2 seconds and were so full we couldn’t touch dessert but the dessert cart looked amazing. Whilst it’s on the more pricey side it was worth it!
Amazing food..service and owners were so nice! Nice family restaurant! Loved it.
Steak was under seasoned. Lasagna was amazing. Service was just average
Uno dei più buoni ristoranti in Italia. Cibo eccezionale e simpatia strepitosa.
Great service and food! Loved our first dinner in Florence.
Wonderful welcome to the restaurant. Great waiter who guided us with food choices and wine recommendations. Amazing food
We had an incredible meal. Service was impeccable. Thank you
Great place. The Bistecca is excellent. I will return there for sure!
Wonderful dining experience. The seabass was superb iand the pasta was excellent
Wonderful experience with extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive staff. Food was delicious!
Gerardo is an excellent server! Food is well worth the cost!
Great atmosphere, incredibly friendly staff and every bite…delicious. It’s a must do in Florence.
Absolutely delicious food . It’s busy lots of diners in 5 different rooms but it’s the best pasta I’ve eaten plus the rest
Best meal in Florence! Loved the vibe and good service.
Steak was very undercooked despite waiter confirming it would be cooked medium rare. I know that fiorentine steaks are supposed to be rare, but when I asked if they could cook it more the waiter said medium rare no problem. It then came out rarer than anyone’s around me, which almost seemed intentional, on top of that the side we ordered never came.
Every thing is amazing and the atmosphere is fantastic thanks
This restaurant was recommended to us by friends. A bit pricey but overall a good experience. Impressive food presentation with each course and food was full of flavor. Our fault was in ordering too much (the lasagna would’ve been enough!) and we had to take a 2nd course home. The only negative was in having to eat so late. (Couldn’t get a reservation until 9:30) So if you’re even thinking of going, book way ahead!
Delicious food, amazing atmosphere, staff was very helpful and kind. Nando is a team by himself
Amazing! We sat in back and it was quiet even though every table was full
Hardest working waiters striving to not only professionally serve your meal but also engage you to have a wonderful experience. Worth every dime and a “manga-to-boot”.
There was a long line to get in despite a reservation. The restaraunt was loud and packed seat to table. The service for us was very poor and our server was unpleasant and not managing our table of just 3. I started to feel nauseous before leaving and I ended up sick and with food poisoning the rest of the night. Not what we were expecting based on reviews and reputation.
