Borgo San Jacopo In Firenze

We loved it ! Well, ok, the bill goes up. But frankly, the chef's cuisine is worth the detour. Complimenti!

Riesling Alcohol Free Grissini, Tigella with Artichoke, Buffalo Ricotta Montanara with pepper cream, tartlet with pea cream, phyllo pastry and red chard, chickpea pasta with Jerusalem artichoke Amuse bouche: White asparagus, buffalo ricotta, paprika chips Bread with flax seeds Maurino Oil Puffed bread Entree: Raw and cooked in season, passion fruit sorbet, fig molasses Savory: Artichoke in cooking oil, crispy bread chips and orange praline on cream Tortellini filled with parmigiano reggiano, beetroot, truffle, honey Pepper stuffed with bread, raisins, pine nuts with pepper reduction and pecorino cream Mocktails: Lime cordial and orange vermouth Piscosour Pre-dessert: Hazelnut biscuit, lemon sorbet, lemon sugar, lemongrass sauce and mint Sweet: Mix of Babà sponged with alchermes and Florentine zuccotto filled with dark chocolate, buffalo ricotta. Most impressed by the first part of the menu, with the asparagus standing out above all the rest, which in any case was perhaps made with simple but quality materials and with extreme technique. In extremis surpassed by the sweet due to the hint of salt. The absolute strong point is the service, both with the waiters and directly with the chef, with whom we discussed the vegetarian menu and the dish I liked the most for a few minutes.

Lovely waiter, some Easter flavor dish. Wonderful view

Fascinating location, empathetic and knowledgeable staff, truly qualitative food, with relevant but adequate prices, compared to the chosen route and the pairing of wines Two big mistakes and a big disappointment: the requests for aperitif and grappa at the end of the dinner were fulfilled at exorbitant prices (85 and 90 euros respectively) A bad slip, useless but definitely penalizing Sin

We were seated at an upstairs table which I would not recommend. If the try to put you up there, resist. The only other party upstairs was large group of about 8 or 9. The men at the table got up after every course to go out and smoke. Very distracting and not what I expect from a Michelin 1 star establishment. Food was not hot. The pasta course and the main were both presented lukewarm. Not cold but certainly not hot. Went down to the hotel to use the toilet and it was occupied, unavailable as there is only one men's WC for the entire restaurant and hotel lobby. Asked the bellman if there was another and he said no. Disappointed.

Michelin 1 star restaurant. Housed inside a hotel by the river. Good service and food are quite good. bread are good and cooking is innovative. Recommended

An unforgettable experience. Exceptional dishes with unique and ingenious combinations. A note of merit goes to the service performed in an unforgettable divine way thanks above all to Claudio who made our experience even more significant. Thanks see you soon❤️

Amazing one Michelin star restaurant at the Lungarno. The hotel is already a favourite staple for this city and the small restaurant was a true delight. The amazing offerings from the chef were tasty and delicate and very generous. The bread was freshly baked and came with an amazing olive oil. The starter of slow cooked egg was exquisite and the raw fish appetiser very fresh and unadulterated. The suckling pig was amazing and the beef tartare was beautifully prepared and delicately paired. It was an absolutely delightful meal in a pretty setting. The service was impeccable.

Acudimos para degustar cocina de la ciudad de una manera un poco más refinada. En un formato más formal. Todo muy bien, tanto el trato de todo el personal, la comida de primer nivel y todos los detalles cuidados. La única pega que le encuentro es el local. Mesas bastante juntas y para ir al baño tienes que ir con en el himalaya:guiado por un sherpa. Debes recorrer el bar del hotel y después bajar unas escaleras algo bastante incómodo y algo que no he visto nunca en un estrella michelin, que no tenga baño propio. El espacio tampoco me pareció maravilloso quitando alguna mesa que daba al río. Aún así el servicio compensa esta carencia. La comida gustó toda tanto a mí como a mi pareja, que suele ser más crítica con este tipo de experiencias de menús largos y estrechos. No eran muchos platos para el precio que tiene pero todos ellos nos gustaron mucho y alguno especialmente. Nos decantamos por el menú más caro porque los platos eran mas sugerentes. Los fusili con cangrejo es uno de los mejores platos de pasta que he comido, qué pena que fuese tan pequeño. La pasta al dente con mucha mordida y sabor a mar aunque no excesivo. La guarnición de calamar y gamba también en su punto perfecto. El segundo plato que destaco es el rodaballo, perfecto de punto y con una crema de jamón que parece un pilpil y le va como anillo al dedo. El único plato que me defraudó un poco pero quizás más por mis espectativas de cara al mismo fue el cochinillo. Está cocinado como una porchetta pero me defraudó la piel blanda y melosa. Me la esperaba crujiente, lo cual fue una decepción absoluta. Pedimos el maridaje premium y fueron 155 euros que no sé si volvería a pedir porque tampoco aprecié tanto los vinos que nos sacaron. El que más me gustó un vino dulce con el postre, el mejor que he tomado nunca. En conclusión, es un buen lugar para ocasión especial o cita romántica en Florencia pero no tengo claro que compense el desembolso. No son tantos platos, la cantidad es mínima y la calidad es muy buena, habiendo dos platos destacados pero el resto no sorprendió en exceso a pesar de estar buenos. La calidad/precio me pareció un poco descompensada con respecto a la de otros españoles en los que he estado pero es verdad que es Florencia y eso aumenta la cuenta. Aún así salimos contentos. A destacar la atención de todo el personal, gente joven con muchas ganas y la comida de mucha elaboración y combinaciones acertadas.
