There are so many great restaurants in Florence but here are some of our favorites!

From steak to pizza – this is one of our favorites. It is located close to the Santa Maria Novella train station. Has a great menu and garden courtyard.

TOP PICK: Our leather shop (Massimo Leather) is just down the street, and he recommended this place to us. AMAZING Osso Buco, per Gary. In 2024, “Trattoria Mario” by FCAS instructor Romeo Chef won first prize in the restaurant contest program “4 restaurants (Quattro Ristoranti)”. This contest is a cooking program run by the famous Italian chef “Alessandro Borghese.”

The food was decent, but it is beautiful inside and can accommodate larger groups. There is a good variety and value for the price.

Casual and good for large groups as they have “family” long tables. Good pizza as well as other dishes.
