Osteria de L'Ortolano In Firenze

It’s breaking my heart to read that the restaurant is closed due to health reasons one of the family members. I wish you all the best of luck and get better soon. Hopefully I gonna eat once more at this restaurant. Was one of the best Italian lunch I ever had.

One of the few Florentine restaurants left in the city center!!! Friendly, professional, and excellent dishes. Ask what's off the menu; if they have it, we recommend the potato gnocchi, homemade, of course!

Books in a bookcase, wines on the shelves, and antique furniture accompany modern tables and chairs, each adorned with fresh flowers. White ceramic tiles contrast with the turquoise walls; it's warm and inviting, and you feel at home among the recipe books! The super-friendly couple who run the place are fabulous! Often booked in advance, so book ahead or take a chance; sometimes, if you only want a quick pasta dish, they'll accommodate you. And what about the more than affordable prices for the quality! Some of the best light and delicious pasta I've ever eaten!

This place was truly a pleasant discovery. The intimate and refined atmosphere, impeccable service, and above all, a delightful welcome, made us feel like we were at home. Last but not least, the simple, tasty, beautifully presented dishes, literally swiping from appetizer to dessert—I can't say what we liked least—and, for me, just as importantly, the remarkable wine selection. We'll definitely be back, and I recommend everyone try it; you'll love it.

Refined cuisine with excellent ingredients in a simple yet meticulously maintained setting. Family-run and extremely friendly.

Besides finding a welcoming atmosphere, meticulously maintained, perfect music for a relaxed dinner, excellent food, starting with the appetizers, followed by first courses like the truly delicious reginette with courtyard ragù, and second courses like the cutlet braciola with salad, one of the best my partner and I have ever tasted. The meat selection was perfect, tender and with a crunchy, crispy coating. The wine selection was spot on, and to top it all off, the desserts and the delicious bay leaf liqueur made by Marta were delicious. More than all this, we learned that food is only good when made with love, and behind all this are the two owners, Massimo and Marta, who are people who love their cuisine, and it showed in their dishes. They are lovely people, knowledgeable, and they conveyed a sense of serenity to us as they spoke to us and explained all the dishes. We were impressed by everything and will gladly return. Rosaria and Corrado.

A great find in the heart of Florence. I highly recommend it. Beautiful and relaxing location. Marta is very helpful and courteous. I appreciated the home-cooked food and the presentation.

We had dinner on Friday, October 3rd and were pleasantly surprised by the quality and passion that goes into every dish, as well as the kindness and courtesy of Mrs. Marta, a true Florentine like her husband, who is the creator of all these delicious dishes. The place is truly charming and tastefully decorated, and rightly so, it needs a caretaker to protect it, so who better than the wonderful Ken? Well done, keep it up, good luck 🤞🍀

Wow Wow Wow Este debe ser uno de los mejores restaurantes de propiedad familiar en la Toscana. De una cálida bienvenida y un menú atractivo. Antipasti para morirse, increíble selección de vinos y un anfitrión muy bien entrenado y bien informado. Una decoración muy pensada y elegante creando un ambiente acogedor y agradable. El Especial de la noche de pasta enrollada a mano con limón 🍋 y salsa de jamón fino fue increíble. Tanto amor y pensamiento ha entrado en este restaurante. Volveremos. Los jueces de la Guía Michelin tienen que pasar por aquí pronto.

¡Fue una revelación! Encontramos este lugar porque estábamos alojados cerca de la zona, pero desearíamos haber encontrado IT antes. El restaurante es propiedad y administrado por una pareja encantadora y desde que llegas, te hacen sentir como en casa. La comida era increíble y tienen una increíble selección de vinos. Recomendamos totalmente este lugar si quieres degustar una comida típica toscana, en un restaurante que te hará sentir como si estuvieras visitando a la familia Italiano que no sabías que tenías : )
