Firenze, Cestello Ristoclub ????
NOT TO MISS‼️ provate cacio e pepe con cioccolata e gamberi rossi crudi
e il dolce con la mela, da non mangiare da quanto è bello!!
A must in Florence.
We were a table of 2 sat at a booth for 8+ people. The table was nice, but watching the serving staff have to uncomfortably wiggle in and out of the booth for water, silverware, plates, everything…was extremely awkward.
We had a couple of good bites, but it was all just fresh seafood with very little chef intervention outside of grilling shrimp or slicing sashimi. Sashimi was undressed and the oysters were not shucked properly, so we had to dig them out ourselves. (For €8/oyster, that’s unacceptable) There were 3 complimentary chef tasting bites that…well, we almost spit out. Actually really terrible.
And then there’s the price. We’ll happily pay higher price for incredible experience and food. Unfortunately this was not that. You’re looking at almost $50 for an appetizer that is disappointing. $20 for a cocktail that was very small and not even made with the proper menu ingredients. Overall I just cannot fathom a way to justify the high prices. So much so that we grabbed our check after the first course and walked somewhere else for dinner.
Again, maybe an off night - but this was the honest experience.
Have it all. They can’t make it wrong. The grilled shrimp and scampi were fresh & delicious! Wanted seconds do the fish! Desserts were out of this world!
The waiters and the bartender were all great to chat with and truly wanted to make sure we were happy.
The staff are not really knowledgeable, I wanted seabass but they were sold out so the waiter was trying to push the sea bream on me saying that it's exactly the same as seabass!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was extremely annoying, for people who actually enjoy food and have good taste buds they know these two fish may look the same but definitely they don't have same texture or taste!
From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail in every aspect of this establishment is truly remarkable. Despite our late arrival, we decided to take a seat at the bar and indulge in some exquisite drinks accompanied by fresh oysters.
The cocktails here are nothing short of artistry, meticulously crafted with great precision. Although we didn't have the opportunity to sample the food, observing the dishes being served from our vantage point at the bar, everything appeared to be flawlessly presented.
Moreover, the customer service provided was unparalleled. Our bartender exuded both friendliness and an exceptional level of professionalism, ensuring a memorable experience.
If you find yourself in Florence, this establishment undoubtedly deserves a place on your itinerary.
I can’t finish this review with out giving a special thank you to Alessio or mixologists, that totally made our night.
