I began with a misto di mare which is a mix of grilled fresh fish, fried calamari, large shrimps and shellfish. That could have been a whole dinner. The main course I had was the "pesce di mare alla griglia," which is a similar theme to the antipasto but with larger fish steaks and very large grilled shrimps. Everything was perfectly cooked, and delicious. The herbs and spices were light and the taste of the beautiful fresh fish came through perfectly. Wine selection was wonderful. Service was excellent. English is no problem here.

The restaurant seemed only to be at about 50% capacity but after we sat down it took 30 minutes before our order was taken. We received water in that time but no bread or any kind of apertivo. After we ordered it was another 45 minutes until the food came out so by that time we were ravenous. I think we scarfed down our food in a record 7 minutes due to being so hungry. Immediately following we asked for the bill but it was another 30 minute wait before we finally were able to pay and leave. Whole process took about 2 hours

Super nice staff greeted us when we walked in, and the interior looks small but inviting. We ended up ordering carryout (or, "takeaway," as they say here), and the food was a pleasant surprise. The Greek salad doesn't have lettuce, but the tomatoes, feta, capers, olives, onions, etc. are very fresh and delicious. The tsatsiki is creamy and tart, and is a a excellent complement to the Greek chicken souvlaki. And...the souvlaki is so flavorful and so fresh, that it was a unanimous hit. If you are in the mood for something other than pasta, give this place a try!

The eggplant dish was the best I've ever had in my life - and I'm 54. The service was excellent and our friendly, helpful waitress was fluent in English and generous in answering our questions. The front of the restaurant has a countertop and is brightly lit, but the main seating patio in the back is quiet, pleasantly dark, and small but roomy (there is plenty of space between the tables which we found was not often the case in crowded Florence). I highly recommend this hidden gem!

The other table sent back their wine for being too warm (we got the same wine and it was not too warm) and this table acted very demanding and entitled, bossing around the waitress and being extremely rude to her (for no reason other than they were mean people). She handled it SO well and with such grace, I was extremely impressed at how professional she was with this table of rude guests (I would have not been nearly as nice as she was to the mean guests). She attended to everyone in a timely manner and held her head up high as she was being berated by the guests. I will definitely eat here again because of our good food, cute ambiance, and amazing professional waitress. Thanks!
