My husband and I really enjoyed our meal here. It was all prepared freshly and all the dishes (including the injera) tasted great. Also, the staff were so friendly. The price was the same as all the other Ethiopian restaurants we&#39;ve visited in Italy, so no unpleasant surprises there; you can order a nice meal for a fair price at Lalibela. I hope more people give this restaurant a try! It&#39;s a really nice break from the overwhelming amount of Italian restaurants in Florence (and NOT a tourist trap).

Lalibela

We went to this pub to get a change from pizza and pasta.  We had reservations and were a couple of minutes early and were promptly seated.  After waiting a few minutes, we were given menus and ordered an appetizer of a variety of fried battered vegetables, which were average.  If you order this, avoid the fried olives.  They are terrible!  We both ordered fish and chips.  The fish was the frozen kind and was a bit fishy.  No tartar sauce was available.Service was average, and the restaurant honored the Fork&rsquo;s 20% discount on the food.  Not a place we would visit again.  However,  if you are only interested in drinking beer or ale, it would probably suit your needs.

This is a vegetarian restaurant on Via S. Zanobi that is open from 7pm to 10.30pm (evening seating), closed on Sundays. They have a nice interior seating and a menu of creative dishes for those seeking veg and healthy dining in Florence. We made reservations for midweek dinner here but it looked like walk-in should be ok if arriving early around 7pm when they open.  On the evening, we enjoyed their hummus starter, Testaroli of ancient grains w/ black cabbage pesto with fried kale leaves and gourmet plant-based burger patty. Basically, everything tasted pretty good. We also liked the red fruit cheesecake and pear with walnut strudel desserts . Service was very friendly throughout and we were overall, quite happy with our meal. It is great to see some good vegetarian restaurant options in Florence these days.

Did a local search to my hotel and went for somewhere very local for my dinner and was not disappointed by anything from walking in the door to paying the bill . The service and food and the overall atmosphere was first class and the saying &quot;eat where the Italians eat&quot; definitely applied

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere, kind service but the food for one person arrived late because they mixed up our orders somehow.

I recently dined at this fine establishment it exceeded my expectations.The complimentary Prosecco and toasted bread with veggies provided a warm welcome. The Prosecco&#39;s effervescence complemented the vibrant flavors of the pizza perfectly. The toasted bread, generously adorned with fresh vegetables, was a delightful precursor to the main course. The restaurant&#39;s thoughtful gestures and the ambiance of Florence added an extra layer of magic to the entire dining experience. The ambiance was charming, with a perfect blend of modern decor and a warm atmosphere. Immediately as you walk in you are welcomed by a glass wall that shows you the cooks all at work. We got two pizzas I forget the names but have the pictures attached to this review and I must say they were to die for I have yet to finish a pizza by myself but this was so good I managed to finish about 75% of mine the broccoli was a great appetizer and as for the dessert it was explosive presentation wise looked like a really well thought of piece of art. I highly recommend this place

The T-bone steak here is delicious and the tiramisu is also awesome. The front dish is tomato mashed potatoes, and the steak we ordered is three-point ripe, we like it very much. The dessert tiramisu after the meal, don&#39;t look at the general, the taste is very good, not particularly sweet. The store also sent lemon wine, which was delicious. If you are coming here, make sure to book in advance!

Try sambusa and zignich. Very authentic and beautiful ethiopean cuisine ever we had. We fed up Italian foods, and tried to find different food. we are very satisfied. Try African coffee as well. So aromatic.

I&#39;ve been in Florence for a week and I was brought here by a friend to try something new. The food here is absolutely incredible! I had a vegetarian appetizer and main course and everything was just filled with flavour. What a nice change from the typical pizza and pasta in Florence. The owner was so kind and sweet, and the ambience of the restaurant was wonderful. I wish there was a place like this back at home!
