A truly fantastic meal and great service. The highlights of our meal were Nonna’s lasagna and our waiter Nando. This was the best lasagna I have ever eaten and I’m not even a huge fan of lasagna. Service was great across the board and was led by our fantastic waiter Nando. Made us extremely comfortable and made the atmosphere feel festive. Highly recommended and if you can get Nando as a server you’re in for a treat!

I was very excited to go back after spending my birthday here almost two years ago. The food has been lovely but the atmosphere and people who ran it, made it. Unfortunately this time I came for my engagement (we live in LA& NY) and while the food was good, the staff was not very friendly and tried to rush us through our entire meal. The family stopped around last time to check in on tables and while the wife stopped by some tables around us, we were very much left alone and felt somewhat unwelcome. Even after we said we were there celebrating our engagement and asked for a picture our waiter didn’t seem too happy to take it and walked away speaking about us in Italian (which we understand). I had been excited to bring my new finance here for the first time for a really big moment in our life and again, while the food was lovely, the rest of the experience was unfortunately quite bad. I’m not sure if social media has ruined this place but that will be my last visit.

We had really high hopes since it got such rave reviews. We had the osobuco and spaghetti with meat sauce. Both were very average. I wouldn’t rush there. It’s an ok restaurant.

The food was good. Our waiter was excellent. I would have given Buca Mario a much higher rating if the aC was cooling. The heat made it miserable and very difficult to enjoy our food. We weren’t able to finish our wine or dinner.

Front of house made our waiter aware that we were celebrating a birthday. Our waiter wasn’t friendly, never asked us if we needed anything or if we enjoyed the meal. The steak was blue, not rare. A horrible and would not recommend! Za Za was excellent in comparison

Il miglior ristorante di Firenze. Pasta fatta in casa e tagliata tenerissima. Personale gentile e simpatico. Prezzo non per tutte le tasche.

Troppo scenico e acchiappa turisti, la carne buona ma l'ambiente di contorno, che comunque gentile e sorridente, ha tolto un po' di originalità a ciò che cercavo
