Il Vinaino - Firenze

I never review unless I’m super stoked with a place, but this place was terrible. So gutted with our experience and we spent 70 euro. You can tell by the pictures the food was not great at all… so salty by the worse measure and a very inattentive staff member. I asked if this was a local spot and he said 20% tourist and 80% local. There were certainly locals eating there but the suggestions he made were not great. Shame as the place is cute but meh d it really is set to accommodate for locals.

I brought a party of six here for a quick lunch at about 1 p.m. on a Tuesday. We had a delicious meal. Our party ordered 4 different entrees and a cheese plate. Everything was very good. We had great service.

We lived nearby and walked by several times, thought it looked authentic and cozy so we said why not. When we got in we got this weird table hidden away from the rest of the restaurant. We ordered burrata and grilled vegetables as first course, came out cold, they didn't even bother heating it up before serving. I ordered a stew as main, and had to add potatoes, the food came and looked plain and boring. No salad or anything, just a blob of stew. It was really salty and dry. My mother ordered pasta which also looked like it was cooked by a very unmotivated chef. The sauce was watery, and the pasta was uncooked (NOT Al dente). The waiter was stressed for no reason, we called on him to ask some questuons but he left quickly as soon as he answered the first. It became a stressful stay which was very disappointing. Very sad that the place doesn't perform the way it looks. I don't recommend eating here unless you like watery pasta, or chewing on exceptionally salty sand.

Wonderful location with great view of passers by. Parpadelle dish is highly recommended and service impeccable. Cheap prices and delicious home cooked meals. Owner even shouted for a limoncello at the end.

One of the worst dinner in my life ! We asked for some simple appetizers, bruschetta with tomatoes summer is the season grilled zucchini still.. summer is the season melanzane same burrata and some cheese…. NOTHING was barely eatable… I mean the quality was so bad I believe they buy their ingredients once a month. SHAME to serve such bad quality for such simple products unbelievable. And they suggested us these plates! They only good thing was the bread, the oil and the water not even the wine !
