Ristorante Rosso Crudo In Firenze

Great location, very nice and helpful staff. Very good food.

We were in Florence on vacation last week. We had booked elsewhere, but then, given the reviews, we decided to cancel and book at Rosso Crudo (also thanks to the fact it was right next door). Reservation at 9:30 PM with The Fork. The staff were very welcoming. We asked and specified that we had a reservation and a discount with The Fork. We were informed that menus and drinks were not included, so we ordered à la carte. The food was good quality, but there were some oversights that prevented us from fully enjoying the dinner. We ordered: an appetizer with typical cured meats and cheeses, and so far so good. Two first courses: the ingredients were good quality, but one was cooked (al dente) and therefore edible; the other was literally raw; the pappardelle didn't even turn, and with every bite you could see the uncooked layer of pasta. Al dente is fine, but it must be edible. A Florentine steak: served cold (perhaps because the reservation was so close to closing time) and on a wooden cutting board, not on lava stone (despite having initially requested this to allow for further cooking or at least keep it "warm"). The meat was initially very raw (see photo above left), not rare, but very raw (the animal could still have been alive). We specifically asked (despite the fact that the kitchen had seen everything washed and cleaned) for it to be brought to us on the stone and cooked a little longer. Result: the meat was very tough (in the photo on the right, the meat as it should have been cooked... unfortunately, it was now tough, having been reheated over the heat for a few more minutes). After this was pointed out, both politely and as a suggestion, we were told that the cut was too thin for the lava stone. (Not that we wanted to be right, but the meat was truly inedible at first). It's a shame, because qualitatively speaking, it's a good place. We would have appreciated it if, during the reservation process, we were informed that, being close to closing time (11:00 PM), they couldn't guarantee the success of some dishes. At the final stage of payment, our table had "disappeared" from the computer, so a waiter who hadn't taken our order had to recalculate, initially without the order. While entering the items, I realized he had entered items we hadn't ordered, and the meat had a different price per pound. After pointing out that they weren't the items we had ordered, he apologized, and only then did the waiter who had taken the order approach the cash register with the paper on which he had written the order. The fact remains that, despite our suspicions, we trust in the good faith of the shopkeepers to not take advantage of tourists. I recommend going for lunch at this point if you want to enjoy the food.

Everything was very good, the service was impeccable, the atmosphere was quiet and familiar.

Excellent pasta, generous portions, very good appetizers. Impeccable service.

This is a very quaint restaurant. Everyone was incredibly friendly and made excellent suggestions. The prosciutto and burata appetizer is a perfect start to the meal. The prosciutto is sliced thin and delicious. We ordered the osso buco, sea bass, ravioli with truffle, and filet with truffle. Every dish was delicious. I would come back here again.

Lovely meal while watching the pasta making classes in the background!

We had a fantastic dinner. We chose the ribeye steak menu for two and it was delicious. Viola and Joisie provided excellent service, despite the language barrier. We'll definitely be back.

Just spectacular. Food was spectacular....Viola and Matteo were definitely off chart. A must try in Florence!

Pricey and really very nice. The clams and spaghetti was generous and delicious. The steak was wonderful but possibly different than what the American pallet craves. Be sure to order the potatoes on the side if getting steak. The staff was very accommodating.
