Really good gelato, located just on the main square in Fiesole. With 4 different ice cream vendors…read morein this one little town, this one wins by a long stretch. They open around 2pm, just in time for you to finish your lunch and stroll on over. The flavours are wonderful, easily the best I had while and better than anything in London. Their house flavour is a wonderful mix of custard and chocolate, a definite winner. They do takeout and it's done by the weight, choose your polystyrene container and they will fill it with as many flavours as you want, and you do get a hefty amount of ice cream. But it doesn't last long, it will get eaten. One thing that they also do is fill a brioche bun with ice cream, it's done elsewhere but this was the first place I tried it. MIND BLOWN. I had no idea it would be so good. Get yourself on the bus, out of Florence, up the hill and to this gelateria, you won't regret it.

We walked into two different restaurants that were closed and did not accept us, then walked into this place by mistake (or desperation) ... the best mistake of our life.

I recommend you order the Carbonara which was beyond excellent, and they offered one of the best chocolate cake I ever had. Highly recommend this place!

This is certainly something for us to ponder. I have visited Il Pizzaiuolo several times and have always been seated promptly, although it does get busy. As one may deduce from the restaurant's name, they have pizza. The pizza is very good. I am not Italian, so I have not proceeded in the procession of: pasta, main, pizza, salad, dessert. This is too much for me generally, unless I fast beforehand. I have, on separate occasions, tried pizzas here, as well as several appetizers and main courses. I would recommend the fried burrata, which is simply a breaded and deep-fried burrata. It will appeal to anyone with a palette who likes cheese. The pizzas are also very tasty, although the one I ate most recently had many pieces of a lesser breed of sausage that resembled what the Americans call "hot dogs" or the Russians call "doctor's sausage." Simply a deeply and thoroughly processed meat conglomerate. I was not particularly fond of this on pizza, particularly when many superior processed meats are available. The venue here is simple without frills, as one would expect of an osteria. The prices are reasonable for the location.

No table service here, you order up front and wait at your table for your food to be ready. Great menu selection to choose from. I ordered the regular sized pizza topped with tomato, mozzarella, spicy calabrese salame, and mushrooms. The crust was thin and perfectly crisp. The pizza was fresh and still steaming hot when I brought it back to my hotel which was a 5 minute walk away. The pizza took about 5 minutes to make so if you're in a hurry or hangry, this place is fantastic for a quickly prepared meal.

The #9 was gorgonzola and pear. It came out piping hot and the cheese was almost falling off the pizza it was so fresh. This pizza has changed my understanding of what a great pizza is. Thin, delicious, not greasy, extra cheesy, and combined with the pear perfectly. I thought I'd only eat half, but easily finished all of it because it wad that mind blowing. My wife loved her pizza as well, but sure was jealous of the #9. Now on to the owner. It was just my wife and I and Luciano the owner in the store. He talked to us for a good 15 minutes after we were done eating and even gave us a fresh slice of prosciutto to try after asking if we liked Pork... just because we were talking about how fresh food makes the difference between good and bad food. Such an amazing owner that really puts passion into his product. Give this place a try and you will not be disappointed with the food here!

The service was also casual, allowing us to chill and do our thing, and it was a fast and affordable meal for the most part.

This is a Neopolitan style of pizza with its soft thin dough with a crispy bottom and chewy high edges. First off, they only serve pizza and drinks, so no salads, appetizers, pastas.
