Borgo San Jacopo In Firenze

We visited this restaurant for my birthday. The view of the river is very romantic. The service was attentive and very professional. The dishes and appetizers were delicious and refined. We chose the tasting menu for the whole table. The presentation of the dishes was a real feast for the eyes. We had a wonderful time there. A big thank you to the restaurant team, very attentive and efficient.

Our experience at Borgo San Jacopo was absolutely positive. We're now quite seasoned when it comes to Michelin-starred restaurants, and what struck us most was the service: perfectly in keeping with the elegance of the restaurant, yet friendly and never stuffy. This made the evening much more enjoyable and enjoyable. The restaurant is located in the heart of Florence, right next to Ponte Vecchio, and offers a panoramic view of the Arno River and the Ponte Vecchio itself. We tried to book a panoramic table, but it was already booked; however, as soon as one of the two outdoor tables became available, the staff seated us for the last part of the dinner, so we could enjoy the splendid view. A much-appreciated gesture. The food is excellent. We were truly won over by some dishes, particularly the Fassona beef tartare, the turbot (one of the chef's signature dishes), and the lamb, a new and highly successful addition to the menu. We chose the Experience Menu, which features the most iconic creations. We also had the pleasure of meeting the Chef, who was extremely helpful and genuinely interested in customer feedback. We've seen this in other restaurants of this type, but not with this warmth and attention, and we really appreciated it.

A great experience, the service, the food, and everything. We tried the tasting menu and it was a delight. I even ate things I'd never eat before, like sweet bread. Everything was delicious, with excellent pairing suggestions. Everything was so good that I even went out the next day to get the olive oil they gave us to take home.

Excellent service, unique location, delicious food. We sat on the outdoor terrace and the atmosphere was truly beautiful, right on the Ponte Vecchio. It's not just a dinner, it's a story of flavors, wines, oils, and essences. The staff is always ready to offer advice and are all very knowledgeable. Truly wonderful!

Anything positive would be reductive and wouldn't really convey the essence of the place, but it's definitely worth a try. A superb dinner, a charming atmosphere, and an excellent staff.

Dinner with friends at Borgo San Jacopo. Roberto Simoni welcomed us in the beautiful and elegant dining room overlooking the Lungarno. We tried the Summer menu, substituting fregola for snails: an interesting dish, well executed, and with a nice balance of flavors. The wine pairing suggested by Salvatore Biscotti and Lorenzo Cioni was a perfect accompaniment. Excellent service from Domiziana Lacourt and Nicola Longo. The simple and refreshing pre-dessert was a welcome conclusion before dessert. A solid restaurant with a well-structured fine dining approach.

A warm welcome from Roberto Simoni. We chose Chef Claudio Mengoni's Summer Menu, featuring snails instead of fregola. This pasta shape surprisingly becomes a well-crafted dish, with bold yet balanced flavors. Salvatore Biscotti and Lorenzo Cioni provided well-balanced wine pairings. Impeccable service from Nicola Longo, excellent dish presentation, and Domiziana Lacourt's professionalism were second to none.

We were greeted with courtesy and professionalism by restaurant manager Roberto Simoni. The entire table chose the Summer tasting menu, with a small twist: snails instead of fregola. The dishes were well-balanced, with precise and beautifully presented cuisine. The wine pairing was curated by Salvatore Biscotti and Lorenzo Cioni. Attentive and discreet service was provided by Domiziana Lacourt and Nicola Longo. The pre-dessert was a pleasant surprise: fresh and well-balanced.

Después de comer, entenderás por qué es un restaurante Michelin de una estrella. El servicio fue excelente. Pedimos un primer plato, dos platos principales y un postre. Antes de la comida, servían grissini con crema, que tenía una sutil fragancia salada, perfecta con los grissini. También proporcionaron dos tipos de bocadillos de bienvenida. Me encantó el sarro más — se sentía verdaderamente feliz en la boca. La ternura y la salinidad del jamón estaban perfectamente equilibradas, eran muy apetitosas y me hicieron esperar el plato principal aún más. El primer plato se dividió cuidadosamente en dos porciones. Me encantó el cochinillo, la piel se asó hasta un crujiente fragante sin comprometer la carne, que permaneció tierna y suave. El postre también fue impresionante, con una fresa de chocolate blanco - cáscara, elevada por el sabor del pistacho, mientras que la crema de yogur equilibró el dulzor. El restaurante también regaló una mini tarta de limón, donde cada bocado se sentía como probar la esencia del limón. Toda la experiencia fue excelente, sin sentido de cortar esquinas.

Lo primero a destacar es el personal excepcional, muy atento a nuestras necesidades. El menú degustación con maridaje de vinos fue una gran experiencia. El chef hizo un gran trabajo al incorporar un gran sabor en un pequeño bocado de comida. La cantidad de comida era perfecta para la noche y combinaba perfectamente con los vinos proporcionados.
