Hoseki In Firenze

Chinese-Japanese restaurant just outside the historic center of Florence, easily accessible from Porta al Prato. Well-furnished and comfortable interior, with good taste. The best thing about the evening was the environment and the service, friendly and relaxed. We had fried prawns (three in number) and vegetables (three in number) well made but in a laughable quantity compared to the price paid. As "first courses" rice with eel and vegetables and noodles with shrimp and tuna. The noodles (soft wheat) were good, despite the small quantity and the little presence of shrimp and vegetables: the flavor was given entirely by the dried tuna. The flavor of the rice was unbalanced (abundant portion), too fatty and sweetish, without a sour/acidic note to break it all up. The eel is served with an excessively sweet sauce and the vegetables are not enough to "degrease". The presence of surimi is INEXPLICABLE, for a restaurant that wants to distinguish itself from the classic Chinese all you can eat. And beware: all the dishes are overloaded with salt. We ended with some mochi, given the scarcity of typical sweets available: particular consistency, pleasant while they are hot, too sticky when they become lukewarm or, worse, cold. Rather poor filling. Friendly service although slow, with the dishes that were brought ten minutes apart from each other, forcing us to share the dishes. Large and clean toilets. Prices clearly above average (drinks first and foremost), in relation to the quality of the food.

Very good food, not so nice atmosphere, staff probably not Japanese

Dinner with friends, everyone was really satisfied, excellent quality and price in line

Excellent all round, really great restaurant.

Fresh, tasty, new! Guys, you are amazing. Loved everything from wakame, sashimi, uramaki to the dessert (strabounty!). Next time want to bring friends with me. 10/10

Good sushi with a great variety of dishes, small place, reservations recommended.

Nice atmosphere, there are various rooms with different furnishings, perfect service, excellent value for money.

We were looking for something different, and we found it here, good and well-made products.

Comida increíble. Tenía el temaki, los fideos udon y el hoseki haciendo oro. El último fue interesante, pero este fue un gusto más personal! El restaurante en sí era realmente encantador y el servicio era increíble

Posto tranquillo, accogliente, in cui si respira aria d'oriente. Al di sopra delle nostre aspettative (basate su recensioni e pagina Instagram), a partire dal personale discreto, puntuale e attento, passando da un menu alla carta ricco e non scontato, con portate curate che strizzano l'occhio al Sol Levante attraverso accostamenti umami tutt'altro che banali. Il ramen ci ha scaldato stomaco e cuore (il mio compagno l'ha provato per la prima volta, con sommo godimento!). Prezzo assolutamente in linea con la qualità offerta. Ci torneremo sicuramente. Apprezzata anche la possibilità di prenotare un tavolo via WhatsApp.
