This was our first dinner in Florence at the end of April. The food was very good and the price was reasonable. To begin with, they gave us a small pappa al pomodoro appetizer for free which was delicious. We also enjoyed the Caprese salad, the eggplant parmigiana and the lasagna. The restaurant was full. We made reservations a couple... More

You have to book in advance to find a table. Prices are good to be in Florence. We ordered firentina and it was really good and also the tiramisu' homemade was great. It is possible to order only a glass of wine so you don't need to drink a whole bottle. The restaurant is small so it is crowded and... More

Was told I had to try Armando and was so happy I did! I wouldn't have noticed it because it is 200 of all the Florence restaurants! The food was delicious! The prices were very reasonable and the staff was wonderful. More

We discovered this gem late in our trip and were so unhappy that they were not going to be open on Sunday so that we could go again before leaving. The atmosphere was lovely. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was excellent. I had a version of caprese salad- tomato, fresh mozzarella, basil. This one had some sundries... More

We found this restaurant through word of mouth from a waiter in another restaurant, and it turned out to be the best meal during a stay of more than a week in the city. We were tired of tourist traps and mediocre food at high prices. The staff at Armando were great, and all of our dishes reflected an obvious... More

Despite its unassuming exterior – be warned, this place can look closed, even when it's open – the Armando offers a warm welcome inside. Even on a Monday night in January, there were a decent number of diners, with evident tourists in a minority. The staff – delightful, friendly and helpful – were clearly proud of the place, and justifiably... More

I stayed with friends in Florence in turn of the month September-October 2011. We asked at our hotel if they know a restaurant they could recommend and quickly got the answer "Armando". It was a very good choice. When we arrived, there was no table vacant. But if we wish to wait some minutes, they promised us a table. It... More
