La Leggenda dei Frati In Firenze

Tried the "middle way" menu as a couple. Beautiful experience. Creative cuisine, suggestive location and impeccable service.

I returned to this place after a long time sure of the experience I was going to have and my expectations were more than confirmed. What can I say! Starting from the structure, the restaurant is located within the spaces of the beautiful Villa Bardini, from which you can admire, probably, the best view of Florence. The interiors are very refined, the style is minimal, elegant, but very warm and welcoming. Furthermore, the choice to display pieces of contemporary art gives the environment that extra character that enriches the whole. The gastronomic offer includes three tasting menus with a choice of wine paring (we chose "The Middle Way", 7 surprise courses chosen by the chef that will literally leave you speechless) and an à la carte menu. The aesthetic idea that you breathe as soon as you enter the restaurant finds full expression in the dishes offered by the kitchen: extremely refined, elegant and well explained by the dining room staff. The raw materials are of excellent quality and are respected and exalted. Even in the most complex interpretations, the flavors are clear and easily distinguishable, allowing each ingredient to be distinguished and its particularity appreciated. The wine paring was very successful, with some truly surprising approaches. The service is attentive and extremely friendly and professional, but without that layer of seriousness, often pedantic, that can be found in places like this. Finally, we were offered a nice gift, but… no spoilers! I don't usually write reviews but when you come across places like this it's really worth it also to thank, in some way, the professionals who dedicate themselves to it with all their energy, taking care of every aspect of their work.

Gourmet restaurant with unique courses and mixes of unique flavours The tasting menu with wines included goes beyond 250 per person but if you want a unique evening to celebrate an event or anniversary... Well you are in the right place and I think that in summer it is the best with the terrace overlooking Florence. Impeccable service

Great place, excellent products cooked with skill, skill and technique, quiet environment with excellent service... if you are in the area I recommend it, if you are not in the area, go there on purpose because it is worth it.

This is a huge experience from start to finish. The well-composed dishes were of extremely high quality and very tasty. My wife is a Peschetar and has never had better food. In addition, world-class service. We will come again.

Ristorante carino, ambiente semplice ma con atmosfera intima. Non ha più la stella ma non è indispensabile per avere qualità e un'ottima esperienza, anzi. Molto simpatico lo chef Saporito che questa volta è uscito a salutare e presentare il menù. Personale gentile ed è un vero piacere, consiglio una delle tre proposte degustazione per vivere un'esperienza. Molto buono il piccione, molto buona la pasta con i calamaretti spillo e il caviale. Bella anche la carta dei vini, molto ben presentata. Sempre piacevole la visita post cena al piano superiore per vedere una mostra che periodicamente cambia, oltre alla vista dalla terrazza superiore che toglie sempre il fiato e fa tutto parte di questa fantastica esperienza che non si limita soltanto a tavola. Dal Duomo è una passeggiata di circa 15-20 minuti, passando dal ponte vecchio. Super consigliato.

Elegance, but at the same time the chef and the staff make you feel at ease by presenting the various courses and wines with grace, knowledge and simplicity. When you think that after a sequence of "unique" delicacies it's over and you feel pleasantly full, here's the surprise.....and since it's a surprise it's right that it stays that way!!! Thanks to chef Filippo and his wife Ombretta you are an unbeatable couple.....see you next time

It was a unique experience, for me it was a beautiful and special day and this place made it truly unique. Super refined food, first you ate it with your eyes and then with your taste. The service was excellent and everything was taken care of to perfection. Thanks for everything, I'll be back. Angela and Federico

Wat een bijzondere ervaring. Super vriendelijke medewerkers en culinaire verwennerij. Heb het meer gangen menu met bijbehorende wijnen genomen en de wijnen waren zeker niet standaard. Ze hebben ook een vegetarisch meergangen menu

A UNIQUE experience! Thanks Philip
