Updated in May of 2024. The review below from 2022 is no longer accurate. The restaurant has shifted to a somewhat of a fine dining concept; however, basically it's similar dishes as before, but at half the portion, but much higher price. It now seems to be more of a tourist trap, so I can no longer recommend it.
Review from 2022:
Simply excellent. We went twice and had some of our favorite meals on our trip to Italy. The pappardelle and the venison filet dishes are highly recommended! Another nice aspect is that they split the dishes at no additional cost, which makes for a nice and presentable dinner if you would like to share and try multiple dishes as a couple.

Writing the review to push the rating as close to 5/5 as possible as the chef and sommelier and the staff totally deserve it!!!
Best restaurant in the whole world on my list (not quite a world traveler but have been to a few restaurants) - EXCELLENT FOOD & EXCELLENT SERVICE.
Every dish is beautifully executed - sophisticated yet preserving the materials' favor. While the food, decor and service are classy, the whole experience is very down-to-earth like your neighborhood restaurant with nothing pretentious. Not recommending any specific dish as every dish is recommended! I tried quite a few on the limited menu (which is always a good sign btw!) by dining multiple times.

We had an amazing meal here at Il Vezzo! Service was incredible. It’s a small restaurant which made it feel cozy. A reservation is a must, and can be made online. The vegetable appetizer had a beautiful and interesting balance of flavors while remaining light and fresh. The vegetable pasta reminded us of spring, and the steak was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. My husband loved his fish dish and it gives a nod to lemon piccata with the capers and lemon sauce. Vegetables were also delicious. The ruby chocolate dessert (looks like a fried egg) also had incredible texture and flavors! Very unique, elevated, and delicious dinner experience in Florence!

An incredible dinner! We’ve needed to keep to restaurants that advertise gluten-free because my husband is Celiac and Il Vezzo went above and beyond. Gluten-free ale that tasted great, bread that was actually delicious and a gluten-free tiramisu! We considered ourselves spoiled. The steak was better than the place we had gone the night before that cost over twice the price. Thank you so much Il Vezzo for your wonderful service and fantastic food!

Very pretty, intimate restaurant. The food was tremendously delicious and presented beautifully. Steak was one of the best we’ve ever had, and the pasta was outstanding. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful with the menu.

An incredibly nice place! Very fantastic food, nice people who really know what they are doing! You pay for it, but then you also get something.

My friends and I opted for this restaurant for our last dinner in Florence. It certainly did not disappoint since it was the best restaurant in our trip. The food was divine; the Florentine steak was perfectly cooked, it was rare and well seasoned. Our waiter was highly accommodating and knowledgeable about the dishes and the wine pairings. Overall, it was a memorable experience.

5 stars is not enough for this restaurant. Everything was perfection from the food which feels like it came from heaven, to the staff who couldn't be friendlier.
The advice and information given about the dishes were very informative and helpful. The quality of the ingredients was superb. The flavour combinations were incredible.
All of this for a very reasonable price, given that you feel like you are eating in a michelin star restaurant.
If I had an Il Vezzo close to my house, I would go there every weekend.
