We were a bit disappointed with our recent meat at Senz'Altro, with such a high rating on TA we were expecting something special. It's often the little things that make the difference, we were pleased to be seated quickly and our water order taken, however when the menus arrived they were tired and scruffy. They also appeared to be missing a page and did not match the range from link on this site, a bit strange, perhaps simplified to increase production?The waiting staff explained the changes to the menu, there were a lot, in these days of technology is it not easy to print a revised menu. This then allows to use the best of the seasons produce?Our wine arrived and was tasted, all good, but the server rushed to pour it and we ended up with different amounts, OK for some!The good news is I enjoyed my starter of artichoke and prawns, the prawns were particularly good and juicy, I ordered the Veal replacement for the beef skirt, I had checked with the waiting staff as I was a little unsure if the beef had been replaced and got two different answers! The Beef/ Veal arrived, looked and tasted like Beef skirt and was tasty. The slight issue was they use the large grains of sea salt, resulting in occasional crunchy overdoses of salt, not very pleasant. The Beef was well flavoured and as expected a little tough. I forgot to mention, our waitress was very efficient at topping up our wine glasses, jus a little too efficient and by the end of our starters the bottle was empty, we were asked if we wanted another bottle, was this an upselling technique?The pheasant main courses had been replaced with partridge, this was a little dry and the legs quite tough. I had a small taste and was rewarded with a mouthful of gristle, I guess it could have been better trimmed.Some of the guests at out table had desserts, ice cream is not my favourite, even if it is home made.Some good news, the recent credit card machine issues appear to be resolved, it did make me wonder has this business recently changed hands?We were discussing the meal on the way home, we were all disappointed, just not what we were expecting. I should add I have worked in this industry for over 40 years, so have some experience.

Olivia was suggested by our Hotel.We were looking for a casual lunch near one of our planned activities and it turned out to be perfectly suited. Olivia is just opposite Pitti Palace which makes for a nice vantage point when seated outdoors. I liked the fact it didnât feel one bit touristic despite its position too. We enjoyed a delicious mixed salad of assorted greens, carrot, radish, seeds and nuts served with their own superb olive oil, a pasta with truffle, ethereal cheese croquettes with excellent pear chili jam and some very tasty and reasonably priced wine (only 5⬠& 7â¬).Service was also !!!excellent!!!Our Server who was from Tokyo was so friendly and charming-she really made our dining experience perfect!!

Wow. We were so pleasantly surprised with this beautiful little restaurant. When I saw the menu, I thought, âweird hippie food Italian style ?â But I was so wrong. The Venezuelan chef has worked in a Michelin started restaurant and brings inventive and refined flair to this little Florentine gem. There was no green salad on the menu, which my father and I were craving. The chef whipped up the most delectable, generously sized, herb laden green goodness Iâve ever had the pleasure of eating! Wow! The olive oil they bring with the bread is just STELLAR and is brought by the lovely manager (I think) regularly from a vineyard in her neighborhood. All of the food was much better than good- this is the next level. Definitely visit if you have the opportunity!

A short walk from the city (touristic) centre, IO Osteria Personale offers an excellent culinary experience in a cool and stylish atmosphere. Classical Italian flavors taken to another level (shown from the chefs âpoint of viewâ as he modestly states in the menu). Great wine list as well. Friendly and helpful service. Would certainly go there again.

I had 5 guests for dinner and we all had a wonderful experience.The food and the wine were fantastic and so was the service.Although I'm not vegan or vegetarian I found the food extremely satisfying and full of taste. I'd definitely recommend a visit if you are in Florence.

An experience in Tuscan food and wine, in a historic location, in the heart of Florence...since 1962
Reviewed By mariocD2384VF
It's been a while since I posted, very busy with my new born Iker Santiago.The restaurant is... how can I put it in simple words..... Fantastico!!! the service was top notch michel was very helpful with the wine, explaining the region, the name of the grape and the family tradition that comes from this great chianti classico riserva.The main course was bistecca alla fiorentina a traditional steak from Florence. The portion was more that I can ask for, very well cooked ( I like it medium well) with a side of roasted potatoes and some radicchio, my compliments to the chef, it was marvelous.Now the dulce ( postre, dessert, sobremesa), I'm not usually a fan of this part of the food but I got to tell you, the desserts here are amazing.... I'm not a chocolate fan but Michel recommended me the cioccolato gelato mousse..... it was once again... fantastico.Totally recomended, you wont be disappointed.
