We had walked passed this establishment, and I noticed it said "pulled pork" and that peaked my interest. I fancied the idea of pulled pork because how I associate it with barbeque pulled pork back home. The service here was great. The owners seemed to have the traditional Italian personality and family treatment towards their customers. I was sold immediately. It's an overall nice sandwich shop with some seating in the entrance area and more upstairs. I liked how intimate it felt. Now the foccacia sandwich was phenomenal. The pulled pork was well-seasoned with onions and peppers and the pesto sauce was an excellent touch. I wished I could find something like this back in the states. A healthier sauce alternative to mayonnaise.

It is close to Piazza Della Signoria but also somewhat hidden. I saw another stand and what sets them apart is he was boiling the pots with the lampredotto and the tripe, and he dips the bread into the broth as he prepares the sandwich. If these are your things, try them. If not, the stand also offers other sandwiches.

This spot was recommended by our City tour Guide. We were talking about local eats, Salumerias,…read moresandwiches and the topic of Lampredotto came up. He asked if we've ever had a cow stomach lining sandwich. We asked, as in Tripe? He said, this is not traditional Tripe but in the Tripe neighborhood. It is the fourth and final stomach of the cow or Reed Tripe. Okay, let's see if this is much different. In the middle of a small square (Dante's) this spot is one of a couple of kiosks. Check hours as they are open later than posted inf. Our Tour Guide advised us to mention his name and we can get a sandwich and wine for $5 Euros. Don't think this spot got the memo but no matter this is reasonably priced street food. To the sandwich-oh it's delicious. This version is topped with a slightly spicy tomato sauce with a touch of chimichuri style sauce. The broth the Tripe has been cooked in is soaked up by the bread which gives it the just right soft texture. So rich, saucy and the Tripe is so tender. Wow! According to our Guide this spot has the best Lampredotto in Florence. One of those local flavors that all have an opinion on which spot's version is the best. They had other Sammie's (Bollito-Italian Beef) and sides. When in Firenze this sandwich is a must try!

The interior design of this place is super cute and quirky, but that was unfortunate the best thing about it. The staff inside was basically disgusted that we were there. They constantly rolled their eyes at us and groaned. The food came out which was decent and plated beautifully, but for the price I wouldn't go back. The avocado toast was very sour and tasted like the avocados were going bad and they tried to cover it up with lime juice.

The sandwiches are a pretty generous size and are more than enough for a full sized man who's worked up an appetite walking all over Florence all morning. The service was also fantastic. They were very friendly. They entertained my terrible efforts to speak Italian and gently followed up in English without being condescending about it. I was there with my obviously pregnant wife and they made all sorts of generous offers to make sure she was comfortable. They brought some genuine warmth to the sandwich ordering experience. The shop is small and the space is tight, but the vibe is also pretty great. It has warm woods in its interior... it doesn't feel industrial... and there are subtle, natural distinctly Florentine elements, but it's also legible as a version of the friendly "mom and pop" sandwich shop as you'd find in many cities in many countries and in my and many others' home towns. An all around great sandwich shop.

We were on our way back to our hotel when we chanced upon Li Per Li and were amazed at the hidden gem we found just 3 minutes away from the Academia. The restaurant was nearly full when we showed up, but we were promptly sat and served by one of the owners Tommasso. We were so impressed with the tagliatelle ragu and fried rabbit that we had on the first day we stopped back here on the second day. One the second day we had a seafood pasta with clams, mussels, and the most tender squid I've had in my life. What I liked best about this place, besides the food and very good service, was that it was almost entirely filled with locals. If you're in the area, this place is worth a detour.
