Authentic dishes and, as always, very friendly service. The atmosphere is informal and the service is quick, just like a true trattoria.

Zio Gigi is the best man I have ever met and an even better singer. I will return to Florence solely to eat at his restaurant again. Get the Melanzane, it will change your life.

Zio Gigi is nothing less than a genius. His smile brightened up my day so much. Such a wonderful kind man. I hope his endeavours are successful. He makes me so happy. Even now, as I get further away from Florence, his radiant voice still penetrates deep into my memory. It brings a tear to my eye even to recall it. The meatballs were the best I’ve ever had.

Despite being very close to Florence Cathedral, it's a family-run place with homemade Italian food and frequented mainly by Italians, with hardly any tourists.
If you want to try authentic Italian food, in a very authentic setting, and with the owner, who has an operatic tenor voice and bursts into song every now and then, this is your place.
For 13 euros, they have a daily menu with a first and second course. The portions are so generous that the first course is more than enough for you.
Drinks, dessert, and coffee are not included; these are separate.
Many Spaniards will love the food and the warm service.

Good value for the menu. Very tasty food, generous portions, and a pleasant atmosphere. The risotto was superb, as was the meat (cooked medium rare). 100% recommended if you want to eat near the Duomo without paying a fortune.

Abbiamo mangiato due volte nel ristorante di Zio Gigi, la prima perché ci è stato consigliato, la seconda perché era peccato non tornarci.Il proprietario è una persona molto calorosa e ci si sente subito a proprio agio, la cucina ottima, soprattutto il filetto al pepe verde ed il servizio veloce e curato.A volte nel bel mezzo della cena lo zio Gigi si mette anche a cantare !
Just a few blocks from the Duomo is Zio Gigi. The restaurant is very typical, and even if it doesn't do anything to attract customers, it has a very warm trattoria atmosphere inside. We fell for the pasta with ragu bianco, which was delicious, creamy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Our best pasta during a 3-week stay in Italy

Appena arrivati siamo stati accolti da Zio Gigi, il proprietario, che ci ha fatti sentire a casa, ci siamo seduti a tavola e lo Zio Gigi ci ha fatto molto ridere.
Abbiamo mangiato abbondantemente e molto bene, il servizio è stato molto veloce e il personale molto simpatico e disponibile.
Una bistecca non era abbastanza cotta per i gusti di uno di noi e si è offerto di cucinarla ancora di più!
Abbiamo speso circa 20 euro a testa (per come abbiamoangiato e un presso meraviglioso.
I bagni sono puliti.
Grazie Zio Gigi!
