What people say

Judy Francini
"The break down their flavors into gelato ( made with cream) and sorbetti ( no milk products). They are also careful with ingredients for celiacs. They make Buontalenti, which is one of the first gelato's created by the architect, Buontalenti. Cream, eggs and sugar. Sort of like a frozen custard. It's hard to advise what flavors to get, but I adore Castagna, which is sweet chestnut, anything chocolate, which is how I judge a gelateria as well as a cream based flavors. I first walked by this gelateria on my way to the Duomo and entered into their tiny space and was surprised at the qualtiy! We are blessed in Florence to have so many choices of great places for gelato."

"La Strega Nocciola, has a prime location- directly across the Ponte Vecchio on the oltrarno near Palazzo Pitti. Battle the crowds across the bridge and be rewarded with delightful gelato! This place was a pleasant surprise for me as it looks a little commercial- don’t be fooled! This place is truly a hidden gem of super unique flavors, some I haven’t seen anywhere else in Florence, such as Maya, chocolate with chili peppers…hot hot hot but sooo good! Reminds me of my Texas roots! Great, inventive flavors, friendly service and a great place to rest your barkin’ heels after a day of exploring! "

Mentioned in these guides

In 2017, I studied abroad for a semester in Florence, Italy, and just about died and went to pasta heaven! From January through May, I ate like a queen. I honestly have no idea how I afforded to eat out as much as I did. But it was worth every cent! As soon as I was confirmed into the Lorenzo de'Medici program, various friends of friends sent their recommendations and guides for Florence to me. I inherited a wealth of inside knowledge about Florence like the secret bakeries, wine windows, and where to find the cute bartenders. I referred to these guides religiously in the first few weeks of getting my footing before establishing my own favorites around the city and starting my own Florence food guide. There's no doubt in my mind that there are newer additions to the Florence restaurant scene since I was there in 2017. This is just a compilation of my favorite places in Florence from someone who lived there for 5 months! This food guide is like my original Google Doc bullet point list had a baby with my food Instagram, @my600lblife. I've removed any eateries that are no longer in business but kept all my original commentary from 20-year-old Maeve who apparently was only concerned a good deal. Some of them make me giggle and cringe a little but they're authentically me and it's just like my favorite saying, "If you're not cringing, you're not growing." I've included a lengthy list of tips for dining in Italy, a breakdown of the Italian courses and their English translation, and of course, my favorite (and not so favorite) restaurants in Florence including pasta, pizza, panino, caffe, aperitivo, gelato & more! Please tag me on any pictures on Instagram (@maevecutts) so I can live vicariously through your travels to Florence! As always, I'm happy to help you plan a custom itinerary for your trip to Florence! Just reach out to me directly (:
