Osteria Dei Pazzi In Firenze

31/12/2024: A delicious Florentine T-bone, the attention 10/10, pleasant atmosphere, good recommendations and exquisite food

30/12/2024: On Sunday 29 December, we had dinner at Trattoria Dall'Oste Oricellari in via degli Orti Oricellari in Florence. Our meal included cold cuts, bruschetta, a Florentine steak with potatoes, cheesecake and coffee. The meat was of good quality, but the baked potatoes were disappointing: excessively loaded with garlic, they seemed more suited to the tastes of tourists than to the Italian culinary tradition. Despite this, the cuisine was overall satisfactory, with prices adequate for the quality offered. The bill amounted to €99. At the checkout, the girl (with an Albanian accent and long, dark hair) did not provide us with the receipt and withheld the change in euros without asking. It's not so much the sum itself, but the principle: the customer should decide whether to leave the tip, not the staff take it without consent. This behavior compromised our overall experience in the restaurant. We won't be returning; in Florence there are many other quality restaurants with greater attention to the customer.
