The…read morecalamari was easily the best I've ever had, perfectly cooked, tender, and incredibly flavorful. The calamari carpaccio was unlike anything I've ever tried and was absolutely amazing. The pasta was hands down the best pasta I've ever had in my life, and I know I'll be chasing that flavor for years to come. Even the bruschetta was incredibly fresh, and the steak was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The restaurant itself has such a warm, classic Italian atmosphere that makes you feel like you're experiencing authentic Florence. Everything we ordered came out beautifully presented and tasted even better than it looked. My waiter was also the best waiter I could have asked for, friendly, attentive, and made the entire meal even more enjoyable. This restaurant absolutely deserves all of the hype it gets. If the wait had been 12 hours, I honestly would have stayed because the food was that unforgettable. If you're visiting Florence, Trattoria Zà Zà is a must-visit. It gave me the best meal of my trip, and I'll never forget it.

They have amazing croissants and little pies and cookies stuffed with Nutella. They also have slices of pizza and appetizer-like food that they can heat up in a toaster oven, however I would stick to the baked goods because you can get really good gluten free pizza, calzones and pasta at multiple restaurants within a few blocks of this bakery. They also sell bread and whole cakes but we only sampled 4 of their baked goods. It's a relief to have so many options when visiting a new city. If you're looking to save money by stocking up your hotel or apartment with breakfast foods, this is a great place to go. It was surprising how inexpensive the items were compared to what we pay for the luxury of a gluten free muffin in the U.S. There were GF donuts listed on the website, but we didn't see any in the afternoon, so my advice would be to stop by early if you want the opportunity to choose from everything this lovely bakery makes.

I don't think it was this place's fault, just not for me. The cheese was smoked, which I hadn't seen any indication of on the menu. Maybe there is something about the dish that makes those in the know expect that flavor, but honestly, the flavor made me gag, which I assume is attributable to my vegetarianism We got there a little before the dinner rush, and I could see how it could get really busy. It is what it is, but I wouldn't come here if you're in a rush

We started with the truffle caprese, which wasn't super flavorful and was missing some of the truffle flavor. We also shared the minestrone, which wasn't super flavorful absolutely delicious! For my main course I had the purple cabbage risotto with burrata and crispy bacon. The bacon added a nice salty flavor, which wasn't super needed because I felt that the risotto itself needed seasoning. My husband enjoyed the land with fresh black truffle and white truffle cheese sauce. He thought it was delicious and very flavorful!

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.

He was awesome and had us laughing the entire night. We peppered him with a lot of questions about the menu, he answered everything and also accommodated my father-in-law, who is GF. He had his own GF bread basket and was able to order almost anything on the menu. We ordered a nice bottle of Montepulciano red for the table that was $48. Others had the Hugo spritz. For app I had the anchovies with roasted red pepper, sea salt and oil over grilled crostini, very good. I skipped first course and ordered the ribeye steak for my main course. Bone in, medium rare, sprinkled with sea salt and a side of onion marmalade. The steak was very good and had way less fat than I expected. The waiter suggested a huge steak for the table, but I was the only one ordering steak that night. Maybe next time. Others ordered the fillet and it was cooked perfectly, the angels and demons gnocchi, and the veal scallopini. Everybody was pleased Really cool spot with a very good wine selection, drinks, excellent food and a fun atmosphere that you don't find at many places. Nugo was an A+ server.
