Italian Charcuterie & Cheese Board with Wine or Beer Pairing

Good idea.... but I happened by chance.... from Fiorentina probably would not have tried .. too touristy

Cute concept, if I can afford too much tourism the outward impact.... all mainly in English, signs, outdoor advertising..... Florence is no longer the Florentines.... but tourists. But I can understand the choice of the owners......

Response from the operator: Buongiorno,
intanto la ringraziamo per essere venuta da noi e per aver apprezzato – nonostante il locale sia, a quanto pare, “troppo turistico”. A questo punto, mi permetto però di mettere l’accento su alcuni dettagli.
Per prima cosa, tutto è scritto sia in italiano che in inglese, e basta leggere ciò che è appeso ben visibile alle pareti per rendersene conto. Non serve nemmeno sforzarsi troppo, glielo assicuro. Riguardo poi alla famosa “fiorentinità” su cui pone così tanta attenzione: il concetto in questione è nato a Greve in Chianti. Sì, lo so… non siamo proprio in Piazza Duomo, ma spero ci perdonerà questa “deviazione geografica”. Infine – e mi permetta la franchezza – forse, con un occhio un po’ più attento e meno carico di preconcetti, avrebbe notato che tutti i vini che proponiamo provengono esclusivamente da piccoli produttori locali, quelli veri, quelli che non compaiono nella grande distribuzione e che, molto probabilmente, non conosce.
Lo stesso vale per i formaggi e i salumi: piccole aziende del territorio, talmente piccole che ogni venerdì è direttamente il proprietario a portarci la produzione. Per concludere, mi consenta un’ultima nota: la lamentela sulla “città usurpata dai turisti” è sicuramente un tema interessante, ma temo esuli decisamente da una recensione che dovrebbe parlare di vini e formaggi. La ringraziamo comunque per il suo contributo e le auguriamo una splendida giornata.

Appalling 👎🏻

Found this place to rest our weary legs. It seemed nice at the time, and the staff were nice, but when we came to pay for our standard bottle of wine, they charged us 67 euros. The guy said he would like cash, but being annoyed that they had given us the most expensive wine, we paid by card. Be warned; also ask the price in this place. Such a shame because it was our first visit to Florence, and we were really disappointed they didn't explain the prices. I will take some responsibility that we didn't ask these rip-off sharks the price before ordering. Lesson learned. Would I go there again? It's a big fat NO! I will also give the heads-up to all my friends!! Stay away; there are much more affordable places. Shame on this venue for giving a bad impression of Florence.

Response from the operator: Good morning, I believe you may not have visited our venue, as we do not offer table service for wine. Customers are free to choose and purchase any bottle on their own inside our shop, or they can select a glass of wine, with prices clearly displayed and visible. We never ask for cash payments—our customers are always free to pay however they prefer. Please kindly remove this review, as it does not refer to our establishment.

Get out and try it!

The board with the cheese, cold cuts and salami was the most memorable part. Tasted four different wines from the region , Tuscany. This is a short time experience as you go to this small location not far from the Pitti Palace. Eduardo was very instructive and cordial in the wine tasting selection process. If you’re looking for something to do that’s a bit different that doesn’t take much time you might enjoy this experience like we did.
