Ristorante Buca Mario

The restaurant was very noisy and busy . So we couldn’t communicate

As soon as we entered, everyone was very welcoming. Our food was very good. Our Mail server was very neutral. It was very obvious that he wasn’t happy. Our young waiter with short dark hair was not happy and he was not sad. He was robotic taking our order and giving our food. With the welcoming of the entrance of 3 to 4 different people, I expected more from our waiter. I was really looking forward to the joyous Italian experience that I could see throughout the rest of the restaurant. Everything else was great, other than our waiter. We still tipped him 10%, which is the normal for a good meal in Italy, as the meal was very good

Fantastico! Our dining experience was everything we hoped for and more! Our server, Gerardo went above and beyond.. We were 35 minutes late for our reservation and Buco Mario were very accommodating! Thank you for a once in a lifetime experience!

10/5/2024 7:00pm our reservation was the Best meal and service by far ever in Italy. The lasagna was the best my husband had ever had. And they gave each lady an apron at the exit. Wonderful night!

Aldo was the best by far & food was superb!!

The food and service were excellent. We cannot wait to come again!

Wonderful atmosphere, great tasting food and drink and responsive service!

It was so delicious and wonderful! I definitely would recommend to everyone I know!

Excellent service and amazingly good food. Thank you so much

We enjoyed our food and entertainment from the wait staff

One of the best dining experiences in Florence. Highly recommend it

We had such a lovely time at Buca Mario! The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. Nicola was an amazing server and shared lots of stories and laughter with us. We would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Florence!

The food came out very fast, My name is Claudio Bologna and expected a traditional Italian meal which could be enjoyed without feeling rushed. This will be our last time dining at Boca Mario as the experience is now catered to flipping tables as fast as possible

My husband and I went to Buca Mario because our daugther told us that was fantastic! For us was great and we aprecciate the good food and the owner asking for everyone if everything was ok !! It was a great experience for us and I really enjoyed my gift that Constance gave me !! It was a gesture that I will never forget ! Maria Helena . Greatings from to brasilian fans .

We had an incredible time. Everyone was so friendly and the added touch of the owner greeting everyone individually was fantastic. You really made us feel special

Amazing experience. Food was delicious & the service was exceptional because of Aldo. He entertained us & made the evening very enjoyable! I highly recommend this to everyone who is visiting Florence!

Great Restaurant had a great server food was amazing. Made our 46th Anniversary very special

Waited to be seated in a line outside after arriving for our 7 pm reservations. Food came way too quickly, felt very rushed, like they wanted us to eat fast and leave. Our appetizers arrived after our main course, and part of someone in our party’s main course did not arrive until we asked for it along with the appetizers. Server was nice, but it felt very touristy. Food was good

Service and food were excellent. I only wish we had more people so we could try more things. We will definitely be back when we return to Florence.

Without a doubt our finest dining experience since arriving in Italy a week ago! Lake Como and Venice didn’t come close-the T-bone Florentine was cooked to perfection and literally melted in your mouth! Servers treated us like family and the hostess was pure joy! The atmosphere was elegant AND comfortable! Thank you for creating a memory for our lifetimes! We will be back!

Fantastic food Great quality and quantity ! Servers were fantastic and very welcoming and friendly! Will recommend anyone in the world to visit Definitely a must do in Florence Italy 🇮🇹 🥰🤗

The Gorgonzola gnocchi was amazing. Great wine list. Good service, but they do expect a tip. Downside of being a popular tourist spot. Reservations are a must.

Great experience after our first time back to this restaurant in 11 years. The lasagna and ossobuco were just as delicious as we remembered.

The atmosphere was very nice and the food was very good. However, when you order the expensive steak for two-which was very good-but you eat only half of it-I expected a doggy bag, and it never came back. I didn’t want to be rude so I didn’t say anything, but I felt that should be expected. That was $70 of steak paid for and given back to the restaurant The motzarella cheese was AMAZING.

A brilliant evening out and amazing food and service. I do feel the prices are a bit out of sync with other good restaurants and have run ahead quote a bit, but I guess with 90% of the clientele being Americans, it is now catering to that market. That being said, it was a great night, even at the high price.

Fabulous!!! Perfect service, delicious food and the cleanest bathroom I’ve seen in Italy! And then there’s the apron! We highly recommend it!!

Everything was wonderful. We were celebrating our anniversary and received complementary glass of Prosecco and even a little gift when we left. The food top notch. The Florentine steak was so tender and the pasta as well as desserts were delicious. Would recommend 1000%.

Una fiorentina eccezionale e il cameriere simpatico , divertente e disponibile

Ristorante tipico fiorentini, cibo eccellente e personale gentile e cortese. Unica nota non positiva: manca il wifi e in un locale dove non c’è linea telefonica dovrebbe esserci a mio avviso

Excellent service and amazing food and ambience we will be back again

I came here on the very last night of a week-long visit. By far the best place we ate! I can't say enough about the server and the unique dishes. The truffle ravioli, Fresh Pappardelle with Wild Boar Ragù* Nostrale delle Colline Fiorentine, and the filet with mushrooms were to die for!!!

Great experience! Delicious food and great atmosphere! Can’t wait to come back again

Brilliant food, great atmosphere, staff were very entertaining. Great place

From the moment we arrived the service was so very special. The only thing that could possibly outshine the service was the food. Always one of our favorite spots in Firenze. Grazie Mille for such an unforgettable experience.

We absolutely loved our meal at Buca Mario’s! Nando was fantastico - very attentive & an excellent server. The entire team at Buca Mario’s deserves high praise!

Loved the atmosphere. Was a pleasure to meet the mother / daughter team who own the rest. Food was great especially the pasta. Would definitely come back again.

Best meal we have had in Italy. Everyone was amazing it’s was a experience I will tell everyone about

Food was great!! Staff was amazing. Especially our singing waiter Aldo?

Amazing food and service! Beautiful ambience. A must if you want a wonderful dining experience in Florence!

Our tour guide suggested we book a reservation at Buca Mario and we were so happy we did! The atmosphere was wonderful, our food was amazing and it was a perfect night. We will be back again!

Fabulous!! Crazy good steak. Coming back as soon as possible. 😁

The line outside was a turn off from the start felt like a tourist trap the service was ok. We had the fried zuchini flowers and the fried pircini shrioms wich were very good and so were the two pastas we had but the bistecca was tough and lacked flavor didnt help that it was very hot down in the basement would not return

Great service, fantastic food and a warming place. Very tradicional and owners on site if everything is ok. Congratulations

Hervorragender Service und hervorragendes Essen in einer tollen Stadt. Was will man mehr?😋

Amazing place with amazing food! Reserve your table before going is recomanded.

Extraordinario , the bread hard an very bad Food excelent

Excellence in every way, the only restaurant that serves bistecca for 1 person

This place was amazing! The staff was so lovely! It was our anniversary and we were given two glasses of Prosecco on the house. For the quality of food, the price was very very good

Ce restaurant nous a été recommandé par notre fils. On pensait que ce serait bien mais accueil et plats exceptionnels, je recommande !

Amazing food. Amazing service. Highly recommend. And get the tiramisu.
