Outside seating felt like inside. Comfortable and warm.
Amazing experience! We were seated right by the gorgeous fountain. Food was delicious and service was on point. We will be back as we both wanted to try everything on the menu!!
Great service and amazing food!
A great outdoor patio dining area, very detailed and appropriate menu, and superb food. We go there frequently.
Our favorite neighborhood Italian restaurant! Food is consistently delicious, love the multitude of options depending on my mood! Great wine list, generous cocktails. Staff so friendly and accommodating. We are here weekly!
Food always good, service is always outstanding and overall value good.
Dined al fresco with friends. Food and service were excellent. Although there were many space heaters, it was a bit chilly.
The restaurant and staff did a great job under difficult circumstances, when the fluid Covid regulations forced them to close indoor dining in mid-afternoon. We were seated outdoors in a well-heated outdoor patio. Staff was very efficient and accommodating. And of course, the food was great. Began with a vegetable soup that was served hot. For entrees we had Salmon and Sea Bass. The green beans that came with were cooked perfectly. Portions were large enough to take some home and make lunch/dinner the next day. With all the adapting we have to do these days, the restaurant handled it all very well.
Great dinner.
Great food and service . We have been there many times and it never disapoints.
wonderful that Firenze is here to serve their clients even on a chilly January night.
Our server was great, the food was hot and tasty.
One of our favorite restaurants, they never disappoint. Jeff the manager is great.
There food is wonderful, as always. So glad that we could be there on Sunday, it was a treat.
The food was excellent. The waiter was very slow. There were too many time gaps between being seated and and having our waiter come to the table. This continued throughout the evening between courses. This is one of our favorite resturants!
Great place to dine outside in the courtyard. Excellent food, drinks and service. Prices are a bit high (probably b/c of COVID) - particularly cocktails (16.50 for a martini) but happy to support them.
First time there. The food and the service was outstanding. The waitress answer all of questions. Will go back and take friends.
So fantastic to have a wonderful meal and great service during these crazy times.
Granted it has been a year since we have dined here but many times over the past 10 years. Pandemic or not, we were Very surprised to see both service and food were just not good.
2.5 hours to have a dinner for three is just not ok and It was much more expensive than I remember. Good wine list though. They must be focused RSF regulars only. Moving on.
Best food and service always
Always a great experience here. Just a relaxing fun evening.
Firenze is a restaurant that proves its quality every time we eat there. Their lasagna is our new fav; really delicious. The wine selection is excellent and the wait staff is experienced and personable. It's always a good time, whether we eat inside or out. They have lots of heaters if we have to keep eating outside in the middle of winter!!!
Date Night!
What a lovely Birthday Lunch that was for our friend, Kathy. The server, Christina, did a spectacular job as she was the only one there and the place became so close to full which doesn't normally happen at lunch. Her Busboy also did an amazing job!! Christina was so personable and efficient and we send her many thanks!!
Best Italian restaurant in San Diego ! Special thx to Jeff , Mark & Shannon
The trout special was phenomenal!
ALWAYS CONSISTENT AND AMAZING! THEY HAVE TURNED THE PATIO AREA INTO A EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE WITH THE FOUNTAINS, HEAT LAMPS AND EXCELLENT SERVICE & FOOD! BRAVO!!!!!
Firenze has become our new "go to" place for special occasions. The food, service and ambience are top notch!!
We are frequent visitors to Firenze! It's our local Italian restaurant and the food has always been excellent. The service is friendly and efficient and always adds to the experience. Thumbs up for Firenze!
Beautiful patio with fountain, good food, large portions, excellent service. Very nice meal.
The food was mediocre and the service was fine
The food is always delicious. We really enjoyed eating on the patio. Very cheerful.
My salad was good, my guests pasta extremely bland. The bread was excellent! Service was very slow, we had to get up twice to look for our server.
Birthday lunch. We all had great salads!
Enjoyed the outdoor space and the food was very good. I was very surprised however at the prices! They have definitely gone up since I was last there. For my elderly father and myself with one glass of wine each the bill was $150! I find that excessive especially since we were eating fairly basic items off the menu.
Delicious! Lasagna, Eggplant Parmesan and Mushroom Ravioli with gorgonzola were huge hits!
Our favorite restaurant, clean, safe and the best food the only place we've eaten out during this pandemic.
Food is outstanding... Wine selection above normal... (they really do try to find some fun wines to enjoy)... During Covid - they have done the best to make the outdoor experience good... A bit pricey - but maybe that is unfair to area and other venue costs. So, bottom line - go enjoy and support this place. It would be a big loss to not keep them going.
p.s. our service was always aware but not intrusive. That was very important in my top rating.
Lots of great food and generous portions. We really appreciated the social distance of the tables. Our waitress was great . Really a speciall evening with friends.
We had a wonderful time and our waitress was delightful and helpful. Food was perfect.
We really love Firenze and have been going there for years. The food, staff, and ambience are consistently excellent. It took us far too long to discover their lasagna. Try it! It's great!
