Osteria de L'Ortolano In Firenze

A charming and refined place, yet simple and authentic... with attention to detail, both in the decor and, above all, in the cuisine. The dishes are prepared with quality ingredients and with great passion in cooking and presenting them. For lovers of Florentine cuisine and, above all, for those who appreciate beauty in all its forms. A note to the owner, whose name I unfortunately don't know: dear lady, her beautiful fresh flowers on the tables, the small handbag chairs, the simple elegance of the place, and her passionately presented dishes are simply outstanding! Congratulations, and see you soon.

We saw it on an ad and booked it online easily. My daughter and I dined at this small restaurant, enjoying a wide variety of Tuscan cuisine. All this was topped off by Marta's wonderful kindness. Thank you so much.

We had a great time, excellent food and excellent hospitality, highly recommended

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

Excellent food, attentive service, welcoming atmosphere, lovely experience

Very pleasant decor, impeccable service, excellent food and presentation. A truly enjoyable evening.

A welcoming, well-kept, and very intimate place. The food was good and delicious, with every course, and it felt like home. Congratulations for everything.

The food quality, given the Price is okay, but the service sometimes makes the difference. We took two and a half hours for lunch, which I think is too long. The menu costs €25 per couple with eight courses (six of which are appetizers, but really just a taste), a first course each, which must be the same for both, and the same for the second course, so very little choice. You could choose between two first courses and two second courses. And despite the very nice and polite lady apologizing, saying they do everything themselves and there are only two of us, it's unacceptable to sit down at 12:30 and leave at 3:00 for an appetizer, a first course, and a second course... I'm attaching photos with the times as proof and as a tip to the restaurant owner. Everything is fine, but two and a half hours with more than 40 minutes of trauma per course and the other is too much. The appetizer was good, but I'd recommend fewer, more generous dishes. The Livorno-style cod was good, but it was a small piece of bread. The slice of bread with oil shouldn't be an appetizer. The gnocchi were good and light.

€25 promotion, good and worth trying. The only downside if there are three of you is that only one bottle of water is included in the offer.

We were welcomed with a smile and kindness from the owner, the food was quality and the service was attentive.
