For our first time in Florence, it was an amazing find. The food was extremely fresh and delicious. The waitstaff was also patient with us as we don't speak any Italian! I think I had the best prosciutto and barratta that I've ever eaten in my life! My husband ordered the tagliatelle with goose ragu (phenomenal) and I had the seafood pasta (very good but the tagliatelle was definitely amazing!!!). We also had the octopus starter- fabulous. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone staying in Florence that has a car!

We ordered the 2.6 lb dry aged Florentine steak and gnocchi. The Florentine steak is a must try steak here. It was very juicy, tender, and it was bursting with flavor. The meat was nice and chewy. The steak was gigantic and it is bigger than my head. They first bring out the raw steak and weight it in front of you. The steak is enough to share for three people. The gnocchi was also very delicious. It was cheesy and rich. It was also in a way creamy and the cheese just melted in your mouth. One of the best things I've ever put in my mouth and eaten. The cheesecake is very famous in this restaurant. We tried it and understand why. The cheesecake was super creamy and soft. I had a great time and experience here. Definitely will be back sometime soon hopefully. This is a place I highly recommend to everyone. Come and try it out for yourselves.

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

Huge steep hill to get here but the views are unparalleled. Their olive oil is so good. The mixed cheese plate was a 8.3 out of 10. The blue cheese and the pecorino were our favorites. I also liked the chives went well with the cheeses. The soft cheeses were a little too similar for my taste. I liked the bucheron type cheese also. The burrata with truffle was good. The beef carpaccio was also delicious. Florintine more expensive steak was just okay, not mind blowing. The wine they chose was good. The beans and potatoes were good sides. The tagliatelle with truffles was good also. The tiramisu was decent but the Mille fiore with strawberries was very good. The biggest complaint was the service. There was a major lag in between courses and the staff kept asking us multiple times to remove plates before we were done. Something they did not do to the neighboring tables. No one refilled our wine or water unless we asked. No one checked on us either except to continually ask us if they could remove plates with food on them still. And all the other tables got free truffles with their check. We had to ask and they brought 3 truffles for 4 people then made some lame excuse that he didn't know there were 4 of us when we were all there at the table. I would go back to the area for the view but not for the food. Nothing particularly outstanding about the food. Steak was reasonable but it wasn't that special or good.

This was our most memorable, and probably best meal for our entire stay in Italy. It was about a 20 minute cab ride from the Duomo. We walked around the town for a few minutes as we waited for our reservation. From where the cab dropped us off, it was a 3 minute walk up a steep hill. There is apparently a shuttle that can pick you up at the bottom, I was fine with the walk. When you get to the top, there are stunning views for miles both inside and outside of the restaurant. There is indoor and outdoor dining. The restaurant had great ambiance. The staff were all great. They spoke Italian and English. The menu was also in Italian and English. Our waiter called a cab for us as we were getting ready to leave. The food was fantastic. We tried a few of the different homemade pastas. I had the rigatoni with spicy sausage. Would highly recommend. My wife got the tagliatelle with black truffles. I had a little taste, very fresh and flavorful. We also got a few desserts to try. I would highly recommend coming here for dinner at sunset if you are in the general area. You will not be disappointed.

Even though it was tough for this small restaurant they had a very pleasant attitude and let us have several options because the group was too big to be on one table.

The steak is a must try, but be prepared for A LOT of food! Also, go with whatever wine they suggest. I don't remember what the name was but it was an excellent pairing with the steak.
