Flora & Fauno

Sempre una garanzia..

Among the best Florentine restaurants. A good walk from Ponte Vecchio but worth it. Restaurant located in a 5 star hotel on the river. Great environment and service. Had lunch starting with the trio crostini: excellent. The Florentine pomodoro soup is a must and the best we’ve tasted. Later shared the vegetable risotto, also out of this world. Accompanied the meal with a Chianti DOC wine. Tried 2 desserts which were worth the calories: a mango tiramisu and a tart with pistachio and raspberry. Prices were very reasonable considering the quality and beautiful ambiance.

The terrace gives an intimate and quite place, usually play jazz music, and the garden and swimming pool view takes you away from city. You can also lean over the wall and contemplate the river.

We had a wonderful experience. The menu is not extensive, but very well executed with local ingredients. The lamb was well done (they forgot to ask us), but very tender. The sommelier was very knowledgeable and advised on an excellent wine (by the glass, which is rare). There were some glitches in the service, but they fixed all with grace and good humour. They even served things not listed in the menu. Really worth it

The team of Flora&Fauno managed to make that an unforgettable evening. From the warm welcome until we left, everything was perfect. Apart from the scrumptuous food, we especially loved the atmoshpere - a mix of vintage and modern, which made the premises cosy. We also appreciated the fact, that the bar has a good range of non-alcoholic drinks (mocktails).

Great service. Great food. A very large portions, we could not even eat them completely. Only high-quality ingredients. A wide selection of wines. Caring staff, attention to us was above expectations. Higly recommended!

Location raffinata per cene romantiche, servizio al top, filetto che si scioglieva in bocca.

Great food in a luxury hotel. A very relaxing atmosphere away from the city center.

In the menu the fish dish (Branzino) and meat dishes were all 22 euro, the maitre d'hotel suggested Dentice, when i got the bill it was 35 euro. A bit of a surprise but it was a very big piece of fish and very fresh. Maybe even a bit too big for ladies. To not waste food i struggled to finish it.

This a a really quaint and well run restaurant. The Bistecca Alla Florentina was excellent, the Chanti was wonderful and the tiramisu was masterful

Everything was great. Presentation of food easily a 10/10. Taste and innovation very strong too (9.5/10). Our only service-related issue was miscommunication over the check (we've found this to be a theme at Italian restaurants). Would highly recommend.

Excellent service and beyond exquisite food. We have the mixed grills of both fish and meat which was cooked in front of us to perfection. 10/10 for food, ambience and service.

This place is hidden away in a hotel, but it is beautiful. The food was amazing with an excellent balance of flavours, not to mention the presentation. It's obvious that the chef loves what they do. Service was impeccable, staff were very friendly and helpful. Well worth the long walk it took us to get there!
