Too touristy and the kitchen was phoning it in. Not great pasta, not great steak. But full of people. Avoid.

Was super excited to try this restaurant but w-it was very disappointed. The lasagne arrived cold and we had to send it back to be reheated. It was very good once it was warm, and we did like it a lot. The florentine steak had zero flavour and was extremely upsetting. We were so disappointed in that, especially considering the cost. Crostini with the fresh truffle was excellent. Kudos to our server for realizing we were disappointed and doing what he could to make it right. We didn’t want to be rude so we said nothing, but he still gave us limoncello shots & tiramisu on the house. $300 was painful for a dinner we felt was lacking.

This was my 3 visit to Buca Mario in 5 past years. I come there for a famous Florentine steak. But this time the steak was too dry and unappetizing. I won’t be eating there anymore.

Personale squisito, camerieri gentilissimi e simpaticissimi. Parto con una premessa, sono arrivato in questo posto con delle aspettative altissime, soprattutto per alcuni video visti su YouTube che mostravano la qualità della bistecca. Ovviamente abbiamo ordinato quella, ma quando è arrivata era già gelida. Ma la cosa peggiore non è stata questa ma il fatto che la carne fosse veramente difficile da masticare e da tagliare. Un'esperienza veramente deludente.

The food was great. I probably had the best lasagna I’ve ever had in my life. My partner had the papardelle with chingale, which was also very good. The Tiramisu for dessert was not the best one I’ve had since it had bits of chocolate. It’s all about ones preference. House wine was great. Only English speaking people as guest and the staff gave us an English menu right away. Takes away the authenticity a bit.

If you’re in the area and want a delicious meal with personable staff- you’ve come to the right place! Everything the moment we sat down was amazing - from the crostini & burrata to the limoncello for digestion… your palette won’t be disappointed.
