Pizzeria Giovanni Santarpia In Firenze

Wonderful pizza and very interesting desserts

Best pizzeria in Florence, hands down! Every time they welcome you with a unique sense of humor, not to mention the products... It's a must-visit when I'm in Italy. Thanks, Giovanni, keep it up!!

Everything was delicious! The only downside is that they don't have many options for lactose intolerant people like me! Although, unlike many other places, they did have two vegan desserts! Amazing!

The pizza dough was very good, probably the best pizza I've ever eaten. The appetizers were also very good and interesting, and the service was welcoming and friendly.

We've been wanting to try this pizzeria for a few weeks. To say that, from the wonderful atmosphere to the perfect welcome, it was a success. I believe there's no pizzeria this perfect in all of Florence. The sensations of the products we tasted are such that you can feel them. PASSION AND LOVE, WITH THE UTMOST PROFESSIONALISM FROM EVERYONE. THANK YOU FOR MAKING US HAVE A GOOD EVENING.

We were here on November 8th, recommended by friends. The pizza deserves 10 stars and more, truly exquisite. Soft, flavorful, with truly exceptional ingredients. It's a feast for the eyes. The same goes for the dessert. Why am I taking a star off? For the service, especially from one young man in particular; he was a show-off, arrogant. He left a bitter taste in my mouth, especially because he seemed like he was the head waiter or something similar; in short, the other waiters (all very kind, humble, and smiling) reported to him. To be appointed as manager, you have to know how to handle "annoying" customers... and your colleagues! He demonstrated a lack of professionalism right from the start when, alas, he annoyed us by sending us to wait outside. "Gentlemen, wait outside; your table will be ready soon." In short, a feigned kindness with obvious annoyance in the way he said it. This happened at 9:40 PM, 10 minutes after our second-seat dinner reservation. We were all waiting for our tables (us and the other customers who were probably second-seat like us). We waited at the entrance despite the cramped space, but in November, you don't want to wait outside in the cold... plus, we were past our reserved time. And we tried to stay out of the way as much as possible. I can totally understand that we were in the way, and we were disappointed, but it's not the customer's fault—there's no room at the entrance while they wait for their reserved table. In short, we literally felt kicked out. Not at all welcome. If they improve in this respect, it'll be the best pizzeria I've ever been to.

A simple pizzeria. The ingredients are good, as is the service. We really appreciated that they managed to find us a table even without a reservation! The staff is friendly. They were even quicker than expected in bringing our pizzas. The desserts are decent.

Everything was perfect and the attention to celiacs was unique.

🍕 Phenomenal pizza! Light dough, cooked to perfection! 🍽 Very friendly staff. 💸 Prices a little high.

I've been to Giovanni Santarpia, and the pizza is good, but without any surprises. The dough is good and easy to digest, though not always memorable, and the toppings are balanced but fairly classic. The ingredients are high-quality, but not enough to warrant much praise. The place is simple and often crowded, which makes the service a bit rushed and impersonal at peak times. Nothing serious, but it's not the place to go if you're looking for attention or tranquility. In short, an honest pizzeria... the food is good, but it's not a memorable place. It's fine if you're in the area or don't want to take risks, but less so if you're looking for something truly special.
