This place has a great setting, right next to the Duomo. We went there about 8pm on a Monday, and the service was really good. The three of us shared an appetizer, two primis, and a meat dish. All were very good! The ravioli with sage butter and asparagus was a surprising hit.
Great for a drop in at the last minute, and very casual.

We ate here 6 years ago and it was great. We almost skipped the restaurant this time around because we saw bad reviews but we're glad that we didn't. The food and service were great. We shared the mushroom appetizer and the lamb chop both perfect. Highly recommend. We ate downstairs not outside

The location is great, right in front of the Duomo, but the food is just okay. The waiters are nice though.

A good place for lunch. Prices are about the same as anywhere else in the city center. The food isn't great, but overall it's tasty. The staff was quick and efficient.👌

The osso bucco was tender, melting in the mouth. The gnocchi alla Sorrentina was delicious, and the tiramisu was truly excellent.
The service was very attentive and courteous.
The view is also fantastic; I highly recommend it!

We didn't try the food, just sat down for a drink. The drinks were very good, and the servers were relatively friendly and quite helpful. There are options for sitting inside or outside the restaurant; I went inside to use the bathroom, and the bartender was friendly.
Excellent location, close to tourist attractions.

We visited Buca San Giovanni Frigest during our excursion of Florence and Pisa, and it was such a welcome stop on a very hot day! The cool, comfortable basement dining area was a refreshing escape from the summer heat. Since we were part of a group tour, they served us a family-style meal, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
We had curly pasta with pesto sauce and rigatoni with bolognese. The pesto pasta was unlike any I’ve had before—so fresh, vibrant, and flavorful that it set a whole new standard for me. The rigatoni with bolognese was hearty and comforting, perfectly cooked with a rich, savory sauce.
The service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere felt authentically Italian. A memorable dining experience that added something special to our Florence trip. Highly recommend!

Tenemos una mesa tarde en la noche aquí después de llegar a Florencia tarde. Arriesgamos nuestro brazo, ya que no revisamos las reseñas primero, pero este lugar se veía muy agradable. Nos sentamos fuera y no nos decepcionó. La comida, el vino y el servicio fue ejemplar! El camarero también se aseguró de que nadie que cena fuera fue molestado por los "vendedores" de rosas, que es una molestia que he encontrado durante toda nuestra estancia en Italia. Asegúrese de pasar la noche aquí si en Florencia, fue increíble!
