We were able to roll up without a reservation and only waited about 30 minutes total. Guy working the reservations/walk-ins gave us free prosecco while we waited. Food was fantastic, they clearly care very much about the quality of their ingredients and the presentation of the dish. Great hole-in-the-wall place and they have a clear passion for good music too as they would turn up the songs that they particularly liked. Place was a whole vibe. Highly recommend.

Looking for a place to eat, found this gem and realized I wanted to try it. Everyone had told us…read moredinner reservations were a MUST here, but didn't think about it. Not many places actually have yelp reviews, but this one had so many with great feedback. The food looked amazing. When we arrived we thought they were closed, but that is because they moved to a bigger restaurant a few doors down. When we arrived at the front, the gentleman asked if we had reservations, which we didn't. He directed us to the line with no reservations. The line was a bit long, but doubled in size almost immediately. It also started pouring rain during this time and we were ALL getting drenched even with an umbrella. The non reservation line was not really moving unless people left the line. We waited a good hour. As we inched closer and closer, the lines were now both outrageous and getting seated seemed like a distant memory. The staff came out and gave out Sangria and Bread bites to help those in line feel welcome. We did finally get seated and we were so glad we waited, it was worth it! We ordered the Spaghetti Carbonara, the lobster spaghettini and the chicken breast with roasted potatoes. We also ordered sangria. Everything was so good and our total was 83 €. Prices were unbelievable! We were amazed at the quality, the service and how large the restaurant they relocated to was. It was like a well oiled machine. The food coming out quickly and efficiently. I will 100% be back if I return to Florence!

This place has good service and food. They're known for their Florentine steak - we didn't try it…read morethough. 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. The restaurant is not friendly towards those with mobility challenges. There's a cute exterior covered patio with a few dining tables but too cold for dinner in mid-February. Prices were fair. Interior is really charming with bookshelves lining all the walls and heavy with books and wine. Family friendly.

DINNER REVIEW I'm…read moregenerally no fan of traditional local restaurants since my mum is a pro in making Tuscan food, but I was brought here by a few friends coming from Piemonte and I was extremely glad they opened my eyes on this little corner. The restaurant is outside the center, in a more "industrial area" and this is why it is probably the one you want to go if you're on a business trip and would like to have some serious cooking before heading to bed. They also have an interesting new deal, since you can buy the products you eat, directly in the restaurant. The selection is wide: cured meats, the famous steak, home made jams, Tuscan cheese, jellies, durum wheat pasta, tomatoes, pickled veggies, olives, paté and of course wines and liquors. You can make your purchase online as well. As for my dinner, it was simply special: Appetizers of pickled onions, artichokes, eggplant, dried tomatoes, olives, olives paté on bread, selection of cheese with two different jams, the incredibly tasty vegetarian little tart, drowned in melted cheese Main course: tagliatelle with Porcini mushrooms, divine Second course: Florentine steak, fried mushrooms and fried vegetables All to be appreciated with different kinds of Dosio wines. It's enough to feel happy at the end of such a meal!

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

Creamy and spicy, only if you mix in the hot parts. They come to table and weigh the meat in front of you so you know what you're paying for. It is cooked rare or medium rare. This is NOT like steakhouses in NYC. In its own category. It was presented with melting bone marrow, sea salt and cut off the bone. Extremely flavorful and tender. My only issue is that the fat doesn't render and there was silverskin in some pieces making it inedible, plus you've paid for this by weight. Great attentive service by Nick
