I Tarocchi In Firenze

We had been walking around Florence on a particularly hot day and had just come down from the Piazzale Michaelangelo. It was early evening and looking for somewhere nice for dinner. Luckily we found a table for 4 outside on the pavement at this nice establishment. The young waitress who greeted us was excellent. She spoke very good English and made us feel very much at home. She had recently returned from a vacation in Bavaria which she was happy to share with us. After ordering our drinks (I had a large local draft beer) I went for a beef strip meal with parmesan & rocket. It was delicious if rather on the modest, small size. The rest of the family had pasta and salad. I convinced our daughter to try the Negroni cocktail which, we discovered was invented in Florence. A fact that our waitress didn't know! It was delicious - packed full of alcohol. The chilled bottled water was a reasonable 2,00€ and the ubiquitous cover charge was only 1,50€ per person. In all, we left 60,00€ for the four of us which I thought was great given the fact that we were in Florence! Oh, and both our tired and hot dogs were well tolerated here. They offered some water which they lapped up thirstily.

We came here for dinner because this restaurant was actually the closest to our accommodation. But I have to say, we couldn't have made a better decision!🙂 The food we ate was fantastically delicious! The waiters are nice. The restaurant is on a slightly quieter street, not among the tourist crowd, but all the better. Real Italian atmosphere!❤️

Excellent restaurant with good starters, rissoto and pasta.

A place with very good food and a very quiet place. Both the service and the atmosphere are very good.

Melanzane alla parmegiano and exceptional risotto.... A treat.... Very friendly and smiling waiter

Very good pizzeria, family atmosphere. The waitress Aliana is a great waitress, attentive and always attentive to customers...BRAVO to you! Very reasonable prices and the dishes are good.

We ate some great pizzas here and drank some good Aperol Spritz. The service was a bit slow and hectic due to the business, but our waitress was very kind nonetheless.

We waited 45 minutes for the dish, fortunately the waitress was friendly and concerned about our dinner, not like some of her colleagues who preferred to chat among themselves. Too bad because the dishes were good.

It seems to be a local restaurant, but it is excellent in terms of food quality and prices. My wife ordered a dish that in the United States could perfectly cost $28 (Parmigiana di melanzane), in this place it only cost $10, even so I think the quality of this is superior to the United States in many ways. We arrived a little early for dinner, and in less than half an hour it was completely packed. It is important to reserve. The waiters are a little shy, but they are good.

I Taraocchi e` sempre piacevole. Siamo stati a Firenze per un giro in bicicletta con 23 persone. La prima notte abbiamo sempre la cena qui perche` il cibo e` meraviglioso. Una preferita da ognuno e` il piatto di faggotini ripeieno con la pera e ricotta con un sugo di taleggio. Faccio un consiglio per il vino San Felice. Ma la cosa piu` importante e` la famiglia di Materassi-Laura, Stefano, Dario e Silvestro.
