Il Mandarino In Firenze

23/07/2024: Yet another change of management. How is something like this possible given that it is always full and people spend money to go there? The conclusions are yours. Since living in the area I have seen at least 4 management changes. You already have many answers... Current management 2024: Average food. The chefs limit themselves to doing the essential without any creative touch. The tartares are micro and embarrassing. The price for lunch justifies the 3 stars, but I would never go there for dinner even if they change (but slightly) the menu. For ordinary people it's fine, but for more refined palates, there are better restaurants in the city. Frying normal. Grilled fish to be rebuilt. Service normal. Atmosphere: The place is called Akashi. The name “Akashi” has Japanese origins. It is made up of two kanji characters: “Aka” meaning “red” and “shi” meaning “bridge”. So, literally translated, the name Akashi means “red bridge”. I don't see any connection with the "style" of the place. I don't see any bridges, some red geisha and then everything is black as always. Gloomy and now in need of a necessary renovation if you want to make a difference.
