La Mescita In Firenze

Authentic and truly fantastic food, just like Mom's! 🥳😍

An unusual place, simple and cheap cuisine

A no-frills place serving Tuscan cuisine. You eat well, frugal, and reasonably priced. In the center of Florence.

A wonderful experience today with three children. The food was simple and delicious. The owners were kind and welcoming. The atmosphere was old-fashioned. I highly recommend it.

A few dishes, but delicious. A very authentic, no-frills place. Highly recommended. The four of us had penne with ragù, three plates of excellent rigatoni pasticciatti, a plate of super tender pork loin, 1/4 bottle of red wine, and two bottles of water, for €50.

Great authentic little hole in the wall. Just a few tables and incredible, authentic food. A must-try!

Simply a fantastic experience Every time I return to Florence, I can't imagine not eating here at least twice. Trying is believing.

We had a lovely lunch at Vini La Mescita, and it was exactly the kind of place we hope to find when traveling. The atmosphere is small, calm, and artisanal — the sort of intimate space where you can relax, enjoy a glass of wine, and actually hear each other talk. The food was wonderful. You can taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite — fresh, thoughtful, and carefully prepared without being fussy. The portion sizes were just right for lunch: satisfying and well-balanced without leaving you overly full for the rest of the afternoon exploring Florence. It felt authentic and unpretentious, with a quiet confidence in both the kitchen and the wine selection. We would happily return the next time we’re in Florence. Highly recommended.

Very quiet (no TV or Muzak). Polite staff, very quick service. Authentic, austere atmosphere, like a traditional local place. Not a wide range of dishes but local food (pasta, Ragu). Very clean and peculiar toilet!

Delicious pasta, the best in Italy, several types of pasta and all delicious
