Ristorante Buca Mario

The best Florentine restaurant in Florence, very rare that they also serve bistecca for 1 person

Waiter ignored us in favour of an American who slipped him a tip before he ordered. Disappointing experience

👍👍👍 Noise level was high, but expected and OK given the atmosphere great place

It was perfect! Lovely atmosphere, great food and one of our fav dinners from our honeymoon trip to Italy.

Food and service excellent. Be back again when we are in Firenze

Service - gut Qualität Essen - gut Preis - Leistung??

We enjoyed our evening at Buca Mario. While I appreciate its high season, I don’t think it’s reasonable to be seated at 19:25 when you have a 19:00 reservation. They need to improve the way they greet and seat guests. Beyond that, once seated good and service were excellent!

Just amazing! Tomasso (our server) was so attentive! Everyone was very welcoming. We had a FABULOUS dining experience. I see why the reviews are so good and the lineups so long.

Cucina, servizio e staff eccellente inclusa la location storica - well done!

Molto molto bene, cibo delizioso! E il miglione! Grazie mille!

Pls note even though you have a reservation, you have to get in a line that wraps around the corner, it moves pretty quickly. Once inside we were treated like family! The owners are warm and inviting, the food and wine were fantastic.

Wonderful and amazing customer service! Everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious!

Absolutely 100% amazing… exceptional food … service (Frederick) Tysm and ambiance….. highly recommended xx

Buono il cibo, ottimo il servizio ma forse un po' troppo caro

Probably the best meal we had on our trip highly recommended!

My husband and I came here on our honeymoon and we haven’t stopped talking about it. The staff were incredible, kind and genuinely interested in making sure we had a lovely experience. The food was some of the best we’ve ever had. We will remember this meal and this experience for the rest of our lives.

What a perfect dinner! Our severs were the definition of hospitality, the owner even greeted everyone at the door. Can’t miss dishes are the lasagna, gnochetti, and really any fillet / bistecca. The dessert cart is the cherry on top! We can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

This was our 3rd time visiting! We came all the way from Canada and brought our family to experience Buca Mario! Grazie!

Absolutely amazing! Fantastic friendly service, delicious food and a comfortable upscale atmosphere. Highly recommend the tiramisu!!

Incredible atmosphere and amazing staff. Food was delicious, make reservations!

An amazing restaurant i Florence and the best bistecca Fiorentina in the world :-)

The awesome foods, friendly serving and atmosphere were all perfect 👍👍👍

Quite a large restaurant but very good food! Enjoyed my large portion of truffle raviolis!

Food was delicious- homemade ravioli, fillet of beef cooked perfectly, zucchini flowers, wine options and expresso martini s . Service was impeccable- must have reservations.

The waiters and owner were very nice, and service was good. The food was nothing to write home about for the value.

First time at Buca Mario and my family and I had a great time. The food, service and atmosphere were excellent. Definitely come hungry because the portion sizes are good especially with the steak. The fillet I had was big. The price is more on the upper side but the menu caters to a wide range of price points with a little something for everyone. Buca Mario is a definite recommend, loved it.

A great experience overall, quite expensive but rewarding. If only it was cheaper !

Maravilloso, ambiente y comida buenisima. No será nuestra última vex

Great experience ! Great host, friendly ambiance, delicious foods & wines.

Great restaurant! We had an awesome dinner here. The steak is a must, but you must order it medium rare!

Food was good nice atmosphere fun time would definitely go again

Amazing place! Such cozy, laid-back vibe yet with highly professional service and of course terrific food (with fast servings). We loved our dinner here.

I recommend arriving early otherwise the kitchen closes around 10:05

Comida muito boa, atendimento bom porém localização da mesa ruim.

Nando took great care of us during our dinner at Buca Mario. Food was prepared well and tasted so fresh. This restaurant was fantastic in every aspect.

Great atmosphere and food. Fantastic service. Definitely worth a try.

The service and food were good BUT the heat was unbearable. What could have been a good experience turned into suffering. We couldn't enjoy the dinner at all. We don't understand how a restaurant of this prestige doesn't have a good air conditioning system, it's very disappointing. Based on my experience, I don't recommend it in summer.

The staff were very friendly. The food was amazing! The bistecca allá Florentina was cooked perfectly. Excellent atmosphere. We had a delightful time.

I had a wonderful fish dish and my daughter had the beef filet. Which was gamey and had no flavor. (I make a better steak at home for sure.) Service was good and so was dessert. If her meal would have been good we would have loved the place.

Il locale era molto bello, gli spaghetti con cozze e calamari erano meravigliosi. Ci é piaciuta un sacco la esperienza. Ma devo anche diré che il camariere é stato un po' maleducato.

The food was incredible, customer service was exceptional and great value for money. Highly reccomend

Très bon service et bon accueil, service rapide ! !

Cadre très agréable, Cuisine délicieuse, Service parfait, Je le conseillerai

Insane .. totally worth it . Impeccable services and the food was to die for

Steak was tough and the restaurant is huge and not well air conditioned.

Wonderful staff and warm welcome - personalised attention from our own waiter who was really knowledgable and guided us through menu and wine choices that would work for what we wanted. The food was sublime - don’t miss the cheese platter - the Gorgonzola with chestnut honey combined with the house Prosecco is a taste combination that will last. We then opted for the T-bone steak - it was so succulent and tasty: simple perfection! If you can afford it, come you won’t regret it

We always have a great experience at Buca Mario. We especially enjoy our waiter Aldo. He is the best!!

Average food at a very high price. Paying for the hype and reputation of the restaurant. Service was good though.

We made a reservation here based on reviews and recommendations. We didn't order wine with dinner because we had just come from an all day wine tasting experience and immediately our service changed. The tables all around us received a better service. We had the Florentine Steak for one (only cooked rare), a filet with potatoes and mushrooms, and squash blossoms. All the food was good, but we left feeling disappointed as this was our last meal in Italy and the service difference was noticeable.

After doing our research, we made a reservation at Buca Mario. However, we felt very rushed by the waiter. Because we had read such good reviews and saw the Michelin stars, our expectations for this restaurant were the highest during our vacation and we were looking forward to this the most. So we also decided to go for a starter, main dish and dessert with coffee and cocktails and good wine. We were very unhappy that the waiter rushed us through all the dishes. We were still working on our main dish or the dessert cart was already in front of us. Even when my girlfriend did not finish her dessert and I was still eating he was already ready with the limoncello and bill which I had not asked him for. It feels like we were in America and not in Italy we are not lost tourists but Europeans who book a table and want to enjoy our food and drinks. After all I am paying good money for it and then I wish to be treated like this.
