This place was recommended by an Italian clothing designer we met while in Milan and it did not disappoint. Given we had some amazing steak the night before, we pitied for the pasta... going with the house specialty Rigatoni & the Parp. Bolognese... Both were amazing, as was the bruschetta, but the Rigatoni definitely stole the show. The red sauce was blended with some kind of cheese that made the sauce gooey, so it stuck to the noodles. Amazing.

Absolutely awesome. My wife and I were on a tour in Florence, and our tour guide (who is originally from Florence, mind you), recommended Gobbi for Florentine Steak. Everyone there seemed to be having the greatest time, the servers were enormously pleasant and accommodating. But, the thing to mention of course, was the rigatoni and Florentine steak. It is the most famous things on the menu for a reason-- my wife and I were in Italy for 9 more days, and yet THIS was the meal we talked about constantly. Simply the best rigatoni and steak we've ever had in our lives. What else could we possibly say!

We were recommended this place from our tour guide on our wine tour today and we are thrilled to have visited for dinner this evening. The atmosphere is lovely, you feel like you are dining in the middle of a street in Florence because you really are. The roof is retractable so we enjoyed sitting indoor/ outdoor. Food was delicious! Best rigatoni I've ever had and my husband loved his roast beef! Fast and attentive service and lovely experience.

After a long flight from NY , we found this hidden gem in the old city center of Florence , Italy . If you visit here , must try dish is steak . It is so delicious. Size is generous , you can easily share . We also ordered fresh pasta and pear salad with cheese . Happy with our decision, highly recommend this place . Our waiter was so kind and friendly, spoke English like he was an American living in Florence . Such a great pleasure to chat with him . We will visit again . Thank you so much !

Amazing. Wonderful. Truly one of the best restaurants I've ever been to! The roast beef is one of the best dishes I've ever had! The staff was awesome and we can't wait to be back!

Remains a must on every visit to Florence. The menu was a little bit different this time, but we stuck with a couple of our usuals (the chitarroni and the death row-worthy rigatoni), plus a few new things -- pappa pomodoro, steak for one, chocolate gelato, and cheesecake. They also made an excellent penne with tomato sauce for our three-year old. The pappa pomodoro was great but probably not among my all-time favorite versions. Same with the cheesecake. The steak, though, was one of our favorites from this trip to Florence, and could definitely be worth getting again. (The seasoning on it was maybe my favorite of all the steaks we had this trip.) Also, personally, I'd be fine skipping the chitarroni (it's good, but not other-worldly in my opinion) and just getting two rigatoni dishes going forward, but my wife always insists on the chitarroni.
