Golden View Firenze

Very good food. A pity that the internal lighting (at least at our table) reflected on the windows and spoiled the otherwise beautiful view.

It’s not often I leave a review, usually because I’ve been somewhere that’s truly exceptional, unfortunately this was the opposite. I’ll start with the positive, the view, it ends there. We paid €340 for a shellfish platter which was meant to include king crab, red, purple and tiger prawns along with langoustines. The waitress when asked said that there where 4 of each, there was certainly plenty of small langoustine and tiger prawns, 4 warm oysters , some very sorry red prawns which I was hoping was Carabinero but if they where then perhaps some sort of cousin and not sure about the purple if they where there, king crab turned out to be what looked like one leg scooped out on a plate so didn’t even get the benefit of taking the meat out myself or even being sure it was king crab, certainly didn’t taste like it. Had to pour our own drinks and generally service was inattentive. To top the night my partner went to the washroom and took her ring off whilst washing her hands to find as she she did so, in plain sight, another lady proceeded to pick it up and put it in her handbag. Fortunately once confronted the lady gave it back without explanation. I don’t think this was a one off and I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a regular amount of petty theft there judging by those sitting outside of the main dining room. In short, I would not recommend eating there, overpriced, disappointing food and poor service, there are plenty of other restaurants which are better value for money and have the same/ better views. I’m sure the restaurant will reply and say that we’re sorry for your experience and this is a one off and everyone else is happy blah blah blah but please do your research and do not eat here, it’s not worth it!

Service was amazing! Friends of our got engaged tonight. Marges was our server and he was extremely accommodating, and exceeded expectations. We warned him we may be a little over excited for the venue and be did an incredible job of making us feel welcome! Thanks to Marges, the manger, and the rest of the establishment for a night to remember!

The place was completely renovated last year. offers an unparalleled view of the old bridge and the ophfizi. the kitchen is the result of a very accurate research, the wine labels are exceptional. congratulations to the chef paolo secci and to the sommelier paolo miano.
