    this place is very cool and very kitsch. We went there last Tuesday for the first time (you need to make reservations) and we loved it. Very nicely decorated and stayed true to a real 1950's American diner. The owner really paid attention to detail when making this restaurant. The menu is rather extensive. I liked my bacon cheeseburger but I did not like my nachos (its almost impossible to find good nachos in Italy anywhere but yet for some reason I always order them). I recommend the salads & tex-mex items on the menu like chilli con carne, burritos & ribs. I also think the dolce-desserts were really good. Prices were normale-normal and this place is WAY better than the "wild west" in gigli. ;) Try to go during the week and make sure to ask for a divanetto ( booth).

    Waiters/Waitresses serve with their skates on.

    Nothing special. If you are Italy, try the cuisine. It is better than McDonald's. The breakfast plate is the best. Traditional American. Not much customers though.

    Chicken burger, yum

    Okay, I preface this review with I don't think the restaurant was made to serve foreigners…read more(especially Americans). It's a themed restaurant that sells burgers, chicken, steak, salads, fries, etc. Basic American food. There's not many places in Italy where this kind of food is served. The food isn't very good. The burger I ordered was dry and I'm sure the meat had bread (bread crumbs or like) added to it. The fries were ok. A little too salty. The desert was fairly plain. Tasted if purchased from a supermarket frozen section. The staff was good. They were friendly and helpful. Young people in their late teens and early twenties. There's games inside and an old west theme. For locals, this place may fit the bill for a taste of burgers and fries. Change of pace from Italian food. Unfortunately they aren't getting a good representation of American food. And for Americans visiting, I would recommend sticking to the numerous Italian restaurant choices available in Florence. You can always get a good burger and fries when you get back home.

    I have been here a few times in the last few years. Being from Texas I was immediately drawn to the…read morename and "vibe" of the place. The food is ok. I don't think it is stellar but I also think they do an allright job. One really cool aspect is that they give you peanuts to shell and leave on the floor/table just like they do in Texas at some restaurants. They have mostly tex-mex options, from ribs, nachos, burgers, wraps to Italian food. Their burgers are pretty good, I really enjoyed mine the last time. I think their nachos are just ok, but I will admit that the only place you will get close to perfect nachos is at Hard Rock caffe in the center. I recommend ordering the chicken wrap which is a perfect size and served with chips and beans. perfect for lunch. enjoy!

    We had such a great dining experience here. It wasn't until day 2 we wanted an American breakfast…read moreand this was the perfect spot!! From the burgers, the French toast to the assorted alcoholic beverages, fresh juice and smoothies this place was a 10/10. I am so sad I cannot recall our servers name! She was so cheerful and appeared so excited to be at work. We even attempted to tip her and she politely declined and instead wished to receive a review about the restaurant. I had the French toast with their spicy syrup and it was really yummy! I also enjoyed my over easy eggs. I chose the Pink Pleasure as my drink and I found it to be very fresh but just ok however it was still drinkable. My hunny ordered a cheeseburger which was absolutely delicious. The fries were crunchy and fresh. He also had Purple Drank which was very good and rich drink. Overall the restaurant was busy, clean and the staff were very attentive. I will for sure dine here again in the future!

    We had breakfast at the Roosters yesterday after waiting in line for 30 minutes. The wait was well…read moreworth it. The burrito I had kept me full all day. The joint is very much like the breakfast places in Los Angeles, so we felt right at home. To top it off the staff that was helping us, Emmad (sp?) made us feel so welcomed and that made a huge difference. Of course he made everyone feel great at the restaurant. Today, I am trying the chicken waffle. At 9:17 the place is almost full. The place has a seating area in the front and another in the back. There are ten seats bar style as well. It was delicious. I highly recommend the place.

    Le Vespe Cafe - Avocado, salmon and eggs were brilliant. They had a hint of orange or mango citrus, making for a wonderful experience.

    The food was a pleasure to eat. I ordered classic egg's Benedict. I wanted my egg poached medium…read morebut I was told by an unfriendly dry as dirt Italian waitress that I could only have it runny. I then had to take a little more time to find something else. A lovely American waitress came over and helped me.(I'm not saying she's lovely because she's American, she just was really friendly) She explained that the cook makes all the poached eggs in one big pot and can't specialize one for a customer. She said they could fry it medium well and that worked for me. The other waitress offered to fry the egg or scramble it but she just wasn't friendly, and she didn't give me all the choices of how I could get the egg fried. That really helped me make my choice. The egg's Benedict came with American pork bacon and not Canadian bacon. The hollandaise sauce was deliciousness, but they give you such a small amount. They need to double it. Another reviewer mentioned how good the green hot sauce was, so I tried it. It was spot on great!! I made sure every bite had the green sauce on it. I usually only like shredded hash browns but their breakfast potatoes were perfect. They weren't hard and had a good flavor. The restaurant was clean but very small. It had a nice relaxing feel. I love to try the food of the country I'm visiting, but after traveling for two weeks it was nice to have something I eat at home. The eggs Benedict was a treat. I had the hot amaretto coffee drink and that just hit the spot and made the waiting to be seated all worth it. The had many types of milk you can put in your coffee, for example, they have soy milk, oat milk, etc. I would definitely recommend this place and come back. Oh and the less than friendly waitress served my food to me with a smile, but she never smiled again and never accepted my thank you's no matter how much I said them. Word of advice don't have a sad face if they can't provide something the way you want it if the waitress is blond and Italian. That will not go over well. You're not allowed to be quietly disappointed.

    A little of the usual path, Yelp! recommended this place and was happy to have tried it. The place…read moreis classic, the service was of the best, and the food was excellent. We had the avocado, salmon eggs plate and the eggs benedict. Both were perfectly prepared and exactly what you would hope for in a top-tier cafe. The eggs had a hint of orange citrus that added to the joy of the meal. This super comfortable, clean restaurant with fantastic service and food will be on our best-of-best list in the future!
