Gastronomia il Giglio In Firenze

I have to say, one of the most successful restaurants in the new Florentine scene: very refined Tuscan food with a touch of unique flavors. I had the fillet steak and two side dishes with really good sauces. The owner is very friendly and on Fridays he also has live music, often played by himself, creating a great atmosphere. I'll be back. Well done. One small tip: the portions.

Owner is super friendly and inviting. Made room for our family plus 2 kids, and was super nice and accommodating to them. This was one of the best meals during our stay in Firenze. Felt like I was eating dinner at my nonnas.

Incredible food, friendly staff and great service. Very accommodating to those who don’t speak Italian, and the melty, tender beef was to die for. Definitely recommend, I want to go back already. One of the best meals we’ve had in Italy so far.

The restaurant is beautiful and rustic inside, perfect for photos. The staff was kind and attentive and above all the food was absolutely amazing. Our group got the special which was black angus carpaccio, and it was absolutely amazing and a must try if visiting this restaurant. The tortellini was delicious and fresh and the beef was incredibly tender and melts in your mouth. This restaurant was the first one we went to in Florence and it was the most delicious welcome to the area.

The best restaurant from our Tuscan trip. Clean and tasteful interior, great wine and delicious homemade food. Very friendly service, pleasant atmosphere. This place should be saved among favorites ... grazie mille ragazzi

It's not easy to find a place where you can eat truly well in Florence, but Osteria San Frediano is one of those happy exceptions worth mentioning. Here, the cuisine has the authentic flavor of home. Every day, Sabrina, Mirko's mother, prepares dishes that seem to come from a bygone era. Authentic recipes, the kind that require patience, slow cooking, and respect for the ingredients. Deep, sincere flavors that speak clearly, without the need for special effects. At her side is Mirko, who with freshness and sensitivity manages to reinterpret tradition without ever betraying it. It's a constant dialogue between two hands and two minds that meet, have fun, and become passionate. The result is dishes that are not only delicious, but have soul. And then something rare happens: you eat and you're moved. And when that happens, it's always a celebration. A true celebration, the kind that lingers in your memory, a little feast for the palate. Let Mirko guide you in choosing the right wine: he always knows how to find the perfect pairing, the one that complements and enhances every dish. And when the evening takes off, a guitar might start playing (yes, Mirko plays it) and the place fills with spontaneous singing, smiles, and a lighthearted atmosphere. It's the moment you realize you're not just dining alone, but part of something alive. In short, more than an osteria, it's a place to return to eat well, feel at home, and leave with something extra: a happy memory.

Great food, generous portions, cooked like your mother's, and a pleasant atmosphere that feels like home. I'd call it a Tuscan Osteria with a twist. The tortelli with Cinta ragù are phenomenal! I've never tasted so good... the pork loin with mushroom sauce is incredible! They have a good wine selection, including some French ones. I've been there several times and will definitely be back.

Everything was truly excellent quality!!! Excellent service. It's a shame the atmosphere is a bit too noisy and the tables are too close together.

Nori and Miki, the waiters were super friendly and the meat was delicious. Two guys ate until we were absolutely stuffed. Good good.

An intimate and welcoming place, Mirko, the host and owner, entertained us throughout the meal with tidbits, anecdotes, and laughter, making us feel right at home. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch; the photo shows his chicken liver terrine with caramelized Certaldo onions, served on a truly exquisite brioche bun. I highly recommend it, and I'll be back for dinner.
