The vegetable flan with fondue was bland, osso bucco good, and penne with meat sauce was also good (a little too salty for me). Cheesecake was also bland but recommended by the waiter.

Interior is really charming with bookshelves lining all the walls and heavy with books and wine. Family friendly.

I've been to Florence before but didn't get a chance to try a Florentine steak. My husband and I…read moremade it a point to definitely get one for dinner on our first night in the city. I went to the internet for the best Florentine steak and Trattoria Mario consistently popped up as highly rated. I reached out to the restaurant via email to make a reservation for a Friday. I wanted to get the earliest reservation possible, so the restaurant reserved me for 7:30pm, which was when they open. I was advised to show up on time - even a 2 minute delay would make me miss my reservation. I can see why Trattoria Mario was strict on reservations. They open on the dot, and then a staff member calls out each reservation at 7:30pm like a roll call. Seemed to me that if you don't have a reservation then you're out of luck, because there was no waitlist and the restaurant small and space was limited. Service was great. Our waitress was highly attentive and got us in/out of the restaurant quickly, which was what we were going for. Food came out in a timely manner. We ordered the penne al ragu, salad misto, and a Florentine steak to share. The penne was perfectly al dente, and I liked the meat sauce. I did find the pasta sauce salty, but it could've came from the grated parmesan. The saltiness was not a fluke. The Florentine steak was just pure beef and a ton of salt... too much salt for my liking. I also decided that I'm not a fan of Florentine steak in general.

I have so many wonderful memories of morello, I am happy to share it with my fellow yelpers…read more This little restaurant up on mount morello is one of my favorites. It's such a nice place to spend a lazy spring afternoon. You will enjoy the relaxed environment and their food is top notch. The best part in my opinion is that it's away from the cluster of tourists in downtown Florence. My guess is because there aren't too many buses that go up Morello. Their buffets are fabulous and contain many different local meets and cheeses. I love getting their veggie plate, which is an assortment of bread,seasoned veggies, cheeses and olives - Dee-lish . 10 years ago I came here and I discovered the real meaning of hot chocolate. By far the best I ever had. I love coming to lunch here on Sundays, sitting outside on their picnic tables, it is very tranquil and the air is very fresh. I also love watching the cutest little italian kids all dressed up in their church clothes running around and falling in the dirt and otherwise basically driving their parents nuts . Awwww . It's pretty cute. If you are looking for an off the tourist track place to eat and relax. I can't imagine passing up Morello. p.s. - they also offer catering for events, their food would be a hit at any party ! *** Ho tanti bellissimi ricordi della Botteghina di Morello e sono felice di condividere questa esperienza con i miei compagni di Yelp. Questo piccolo ristorante sul Monte Morello è uno dei miei preferiti. E 'un bel posto per trascorrere un pigro pomeriggio di primavera. Potrete godere l'ambiente rilassato e il loro cibo di prim'ordine. La parte migliore a mio parere è che è lontano dalle orde di turisti che affollano nel centro di Firenze. I loro buffet sono favolosi, dove puoi trovare un insieme di formaggi locali diversi. Mi piace prendere il loro piatto vegetariano, che è un assortimento di pane, verdure, formaggi stagionati e olive, delizioso ! Dieci anni fa sono venuta qui e ho scoperto il vero significato di cioccolata calda. Di gran lunga la migliore che abbia mai assaggiato. Mi piace venire qui a pranzo la domenica, seduta fuori sui loro tavoli. E' molto tranquillo e l'aria è molto fresca. Mi piace guardare i bambini italiani vestiti nei loro abiti domenicali che giocando cosi come i bambini sanno giocare, naturalmente si impolverano mentre i genitori in continuazione gridano loro di non sporcarsi. Se siete alla ricerca di un luogo fuori dal circuito turistico per mangiare e rilassarsi, non riesco ad immaginare un posto migliore della Botteghina di Morello. p.s. Alla occasione offrono anche il servizio di catering. Il loro cibo sará una garanzia per ogni festa

I go every year to one of the top wine bars in the country in Florence. He's incredible, but he doesn't do full meals. I order cases wine from him because I trust anything he says. I asked him where I should eat and he said this is the best food in Florence right now. I got a cab with a friend and make the trek. He and I are both foodies and have traveled the world. I'm currently studying for my level 2 wine certification. I also am a food writer in Los Angeles. We got some appetizers, including their house made prosciutto. We got a glass of wine that she recommended with each separate course, and that's where the meal really was incredible. The food was absolutely amazing. The wines were unique and perfectly paired. It seemed like with every sip, and every bite, my friend and I would turn to each other with wide eyes. The quail gnocchi, the pasta with cheeses, the chocolate torte and the peach sorbetto. I. Just. Have. No. Words. I am in Sicily now, and a new friend is meeting me in Rome. We changed our trip so we could swing by Florence and eat here again. This time, I'm going to order a case of wine to be shipped home as well.
