The food, the vibe and everything else. First time there and we made a mistake of eating breakfast late and then go there. We will be definitely going back for sure and this time we will starve ourselves before going because food portions are definitely islanders portions 🤣

Literally the best place I have ever been. We went twice in our two night stay and I don’t have one single complaint. I would like to say even with the wait time’s Henry made our whole experience a 20/10. Everyone was amazing but he really made our visit memorable. Shout out to Henry’s parents and the establishment for training him correctly. The food was worth every second. 20/10.
Absolutely the best food in Florence. Went here for our 9 year Anniversary. Gave us a complimentary dessert Hawaiian style. Friendly attentive staff. Absolutely all around perfect restaurant.
