10/05/2026: We really enjoyed our dinner tonight. The location looks out over the Tuscan hills above Florence. Easy to get on the #7 bus to Fiesole, but also easy to park if you have a car—far different to parking closer to the center of Florence.
The food and wine were phenomenal. The menu has a wide variety of delicious options from seafood to delicious steak. Even the side dishes—in our case, spinach were so delicious, I could not stop eating with second and third helpings.
The quality of the food and the beautiful location make Le Lance worth visiting. As an American, it is great to get away from the gaggle of tourists and enjoy a restaurant visited by Italians. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
09/05/2026: Friendliness and quality.
We chose this restaurant for lunch in the hills of Fiesole and couldn't have asked for anything better. From the moment we arrived, we felt an atmosphere of absolute peace, far from the chaos of the city and with excellent background music. From the very first contact with the owner, we found him to be completely available for our family celebration.
The location is breathtaking: eating with such a privileged view of Florence and the surrounding hills is worth the trip alone. The restaurant is meticulously designed, very elegant and refined.
The food was a real surprise. We chose a tasting menu and were satisfied even though it wasn't scheduled on the day and we arrived significantly late. The welcome was warm and friendly. The ingredients were extremely fresh and of excellent quality. We tried first courses that tasted traditional, but with a truly interesting gourmet twist. The meat was incredibly tender and cooked to perfection. The wine list also deserves a special mention, with an excellent selection of local products and valuable advice from maître d' Serafino.
The service was impeccable: the staff is young, knowledgeable, and very friendly, never intrusive but always present, especially the young woman coordinating the service.
In short: if you're looking for a place where good food meets an unforgettable view and a genuine welcome, this is the place. We'll definitely be back, perhaps for a sunset!
Highly recommended!
