- Go for
- A hillside dining room above Arcetri with a view over olive groves, fifteen minutes out of the city and a different landscape entirely.
- Skip if
- You are judging it on the food alone. Opinions on the kitchen are split and the setting is what carries it.
What everybody agrees on
Read across roughly 1,400 public reviews on TripAdvisor in September 2026. Rated 3.9, which means genuinely divided rather than uniformly good.
- Nearly all
The view and the setting are why people go. Countryside a quarter of an hour from the Duomo.
- Most
It has been a fixture for decades and is on the list of places Florentines take visitors.
- Some
Reviews swing on the cooking and on value. A 3.9 across 1,400 reviews is the honest summary.
- Some
Getting there needs a car, a taxi or bus 38. It is not a walk.
What to order
Sit outside if the weather allows. Indoors it is an ordinary dining room, and the terrace is the entire argument.
Before you go
- Getting there
- Bus 38 from Porta Romana, or a short taxi ride up to Arcetri.
- Booking
- Worth doing, particularly for a table outside.
- Best time
- Lunch, for the view.
It sits in Pian dei Giullari, close enough to reach in a short drive and far enough that the light and the noise are completely different. Traditional Tuscan cooking, unchanged for decades, in a room with exposed beams. The view is the reason to book a table by the window rather than inside.
