My wife and I went for lunch, very much enjoyed it, and went back for dinner. I've seen some negative reviews about the meat; we didn't have any meat dishes, so can't speak to that. However, the primi dishes we had were delicious and fresh (e.g., spinach & ricotta dumplings, spinach & ricotta raviollis, pasta with meat ragu, a rather... More

This is a wonderful location that serves typical Tuscan food. The palace itself is beautiful. I love the underground cellars. There wine menu is dominantly Tuscan. A great experience if you want to try the try Tuscan fair More

This place has a great looking room and nice sidewalk cafe... There was no room in the pizzeria so we thought we would try the 'restaurant'.. our mistake. The beef was very low grade, tough, over-cooked and expensive. The chicken under a brick was fine but also over-cooked and expensive. Such a shame that they (like so many in Florence... More

Thats what my wife and I should of whispered to each other while we could - you know, just before they arrive with the order taking. The food was poor. The beef had been cooked for five hours in Chianti - said the waitress. I'd be surprised if the beef had seen more than a spoonful of wine in that... More

This restaurant is a three in one deal - and you should focus on the tiny entrance that is for the "pizzeria osteria del caffe..." (really long name).

Food was amazing - gnocchi pasta and filet steak with balsamic glaze - we're still full More

We just wanted a "fiorentina" steak when we wnt in caffe italiano with friends. I must say it was a very good one, cooked perfectly and served with beans and potatoes. The place is very nice, located in an ancient palace, being an osteria, it is just basic and beautiful. it does not pretend to be luxury. Service was very... More

Went there for lunch. Good food but overall and compared to other good osterias in Firenze, just too expensive... It's supposed to be an "Osteria-Caffé" with local food, not a fancy restaurant. Everything is expensive there : 4 euros for a bottle of water - you cannot really refuse it - (they give you a 75 cl bottle for just... More

Fantastic meal in an off-the-main-streets locale. Starter: Gnudi (Tuscan dumplings) with butter, sage and Parmesan cheese. Main: Stracotto di manzo al Chianti Classion con polenta bramata. Delicious Tuscan pot roast with a Chianti wine reduction and comforting polenta. All washed down with a yummy glass or two of Chianti. Only 32 euros! . Dessert: went to a nearby gelateria (it's...
