Osteria di Rocco

I ordered the bistecca di chianina and a glass of Chianti, finishing with a caffè macchiato. Everything was delicious and prepared in good timing. The wait staff were very kind. The osteria is on a quiet street and the outdoor ambience was delightful. Highly recommended.

We had a very delicious lunch with a lot of local delicacies such as Melanzana al pomodoro, Raviolo al ragù, delicious Antipasti. The osteria is located away from the hectic city center on the way to Piazzale Michelangelo. Service was fast and the waitress very friendly and helpful with food recommendations. We will be back!

This was our first meal in Florence, and ended up being our best! We had lunch here and it was very good. I had the tortelli with butter and sage and my husband had the “chicken parmigiana” which I know isn’t actually Italian, but this was just about the only “not traditional thing” on the menu and it was still amazing. It was grilled and pounded out and baked with Parmesan cheese then had sauce and more cheese on top and he said it was delicious. My tortelli was so so good and made very traditionally as we learned the next day at our cooking class outside of Florence. Even the cooking class operators, who had previously lived in Florence for like 15 years knew this place and thought highly of it. Highly recommend. .

Wow… what a perfect way to end a beautiful walk through the city! We finished our day with an incredible meal at this restaurant. The spaghetti with seafood was a big hit with our child – they couldn’t stop praising every bite! The risotto was honestly one of the best I’ve ever tasted, and the chicken with Parmesan was absolutely perfect. The service was warm and welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Be sure to try their olive oil – it’s one of the most flavorful we’ve ever had. We even bought a bottle to take home! Highly recommended – truly a fantastic culinary experience.

A lovely dinner, great service and the food was very good. Toscana crostini & anchovies on toast to begin. Followed by chicken parmesan and steak, potatoes and spinach. A good plate of food. Then a lime cake and tiramisu. Please give it a try.

This place was amazing! We came across here while coming back to center from Piazzale Michelangelo, and we couldn't have been luckier... We got lasagna (only beef) and Florentine beef stew as main dish. The lasagna was so fresh, and the meat was incredibly flavorful and tender. We topped the meal by getting the dessert "Zucotta", which is something local and you don't find in many restaurant menus. Our waiter was friendly and attentive to us, and service was quite fast. It was the happiest meal I had in my trip.
