My egg scramble was made with different ingredients than what I requested. The hashbrown tasted really weird too. Not sure what they put in it and how they made it. Also my friend's order which stated 2 eggs on thr menu came with just one egg. I don't think the waitress was very attentive. Overall it was okay for a late breakfast.

Pretty disappointing. We are usually a very adventurous crowd when it comes to food but on this…read moreoccasion, we were craving some bacon, egg, pancake kinda comfort food. Arriving really excited, we left disappointed after our food came out cool and lack luster in taste. I don't even know if my eggs Benedict was cooked all the way. The plain pancakes with maple syrup were the only hit amongst the group. This place is super cute and has a lot of potential but today was a definite miss for us.

The food was a pleasure to eat. I ordered classic egg's Benedict. I wanted my egg poached medium…read morebut I was told by an unfriendly dry as dirt Italian waitress that I could only have it runny. I then had to take a little more time to find something else. A lovely American waitress came over and helped me.(I'm not saying she's lovely because she's American, she just was really friendly) She explained that the cook makes all the poached eggs in one big pot and can't specialize one for a customer. She said they could fry it medium well and that worked for me. The other waitress offered to fry the egg or scramble it but she just wasn't friendly, and she didn't give me all the choices of how I could get the egg fried. That really helped me make my choice. The egg's Benedict came with American pork bacon and not Canadian bacon. The hollandaise sauce was deliciousness, but they give you such a small amount. They need to double it. Another reviewer mentioned how good the green hot sauce was, so I tried it. It was spot on great!! I made sure every bite had the green sauce on it. I usually only like shredded hash browns but their breakfast potatoes were perfect. They weren't hard and had a good flavor. The restaurant was clean but very small. It had a nice relaxing feel. I love to try the food of the country I'm visiting, but after traveling for two weeks it was nice to have something I eat at home. The eggs Benedict was a treat. I had the hot amaretto coffee drink and that just hit the spot and made the waiting to be seated all worth it. The had many types of milk you can put in your coffee, for example, they have soy milk, oat milk, etc. I would definitely recommend this place and come back. Oh and the less than friendly waitress served my food to me with a smile, but she never smiled again and never accepted my thank you's no matter how much I said them. Word of advice don't have a sad face if they can't provide something the way you want it if the waitress is blond and Italian. That will not go over well. You're not allowed to be quietly disappointed.

We had the avocado, salmon eggs plate and the eggs benedict. Both were perfectly prepared and exactly what you would hope for in a top-tier cafe.

We took it as a sign and decided we had to stop. The inside is surreal. U.S. flags, state license plates, hubcaps, neon everywhere, Marilyn Monroe in the foyer. Typical old-style diner seats, even a pinball machine in the corner. This place makes an Elvis shake (yah, with peanut butter and banana) and was serving up a special Thanksgiving meal today - we decided to go for burgers and shakes instead and were not disappointed. My middle boy had the 1950 DOC burger; I got the Juicy Lucy (purportedly a well known recipe from Minnesota - you learn something new everyday)... Definitely worth a stop if you happen to be wandering the outskirts of Poggibonsi and have been subsisting on pizza and gelato for a week or two...

"Great Interiors, good food, service to be improved."…read more The title says it all, this is, interiors and atmosphere-wise the best American diner in Florence. Food is good, not US standards but no complaint there. Service is a bit shoddy, the waitresses on skates are a nice touch, but the level of service is "average Italian". All in all a good place, could be the "best" but they need to work on it!

The decor was also very fun and they have a downstairs arcade room. It's interesting to see how other countries view American culture. There was also a statue of Marilyn Monroe at the entrance. I would say the portions are pretty big and kept us full for hours. The milkshakes are a bit watery but I've noticed that it's been a trend for all milkshakes I've had in European countries so far. They also had Mountain Dew and Dr. Pepper which is rare to find in Florence, so that's always a plus. The workers are also very friendly and get your food out fairly fast.

It reminds me of when I first lived in China, over 20 years ago. When locals would construct a…read morebusiness to appeal to westerners, a few things would be jarringly just slightly off. Such is the case of the 1950 American diner in Florence. Perhaps we should give them the benefit of the doubt for their "artistic interpretation" of an American diner? You'll note the playlist of "American rock and roll" are cover artists singing the songs reminiscent of the era, but not precisely from the era. And the cover artists are unrecognizable. The walls are full of reproduction items and ads from the era. The food was ok in preparation and plating, but it's overpriced for what you get. There was a woman on roller skates, and apparently, that was her only job, she wasn't taking orders or delivering food. Just skating. They have some arcade and pinball machines on the lower level. This visit was early April 2022, and they insisted on seeing vax proof before allowing you in. One could have a lot of trips to McDonald's for what you'll spend here. Also, they should add "American breakfast" to the menu, and open earlier than 7PM.

Plus points: * The burgers are delicious and the desserts even better. * The restaurant is delicious, American-style 50ies, complete with a Cadillac, waiters and waitresses with suspenders or as pin up on skates. Minus points: * The disorganization. You must book in advance to be able to have a nice opportunity to wait half an hour / an hour for a table. Oh yes, because would you expect to have the table you reserved without waiting? Too simple! They always invoke the excuse of something unexpected that they just couldn't imagine would happen exactly today ... * Being a bit 'naught. To get to this Diner you must have a car, cause it is out of the city center, out of the city center surroundings, in the industrial area of ​​Calenzano ... Landscape 2.0 Despite everything you do still forgive, as soon as you can sit down: you always get out satisfied and full as an egg. Better organization in the one opened in Florence, anyway.

There is a nascent craft beer thing going on here in Italy reminiscent to what NJ went through maybe 15 years ago. Probably because there were few patrons here early on a Monday night we got a chance to speak at length with Mateo our beertender; a very nice guy. He was more than happy to let us sample several beers and even brought us an order of fries we didn't order. With 10 taps pouring mostly local "birre" and twenty something bottles of craft beer, if you are into the beer thing, I would definitely stop in.
