  This place is priceless. If you don't love Italian food already, you will fall head over heals after eating here.
  
  I first discovered this place about 4 or 5 years ago. Back then the waiters didn't speak English and the menu wasn't translated. But the food was just phenomenal. Fast forward to 2019, they have translated menus and the waiters speak English. I purposely came back to eat here again and consider this one of the best places in Florence. During my trip I ate here 2 times; would have been 3 if they weren't closed on Sunday.
  
  Food: This place has some of the best gnocchi you will ever try. The pasta here in general is just amazing. It's worth getting the Florentine steak here also, which is served on a sizzling plate and just divine.
  
  The menu is super affordable with dinner costing just 15 euros. That includes a starter, bread, side, main dish, water and wine. I would pay way more for this food!

  I had a great food experience here. They had a special of two course meal and a side dish. I picked a a dish recommend by a worker. A pasta dish with meat in a creamy sauce. It was delicious. It had a nice fresh flavor to it. My second course was a meat dish with rosemary. My plate had a small portions of chicken, stake and sausage. They definitely tasted how it was roasted with rosemary, delicious. My side dish was  a salad. That was good too. Our dinner came with a drink.
    The staff was incredibly nice and patient and worked with us. The place is small and cozy. It is a cool little restaurant with art work all around.

  5 stars for quantity! A quarter litre of red or white wine, a half litre of water, a generous portion of pasta, a second dish generally containing more meat, and a side consisting of available vegetables.
  
  2 stars for quality. The wine was bland, the pasta shameful to any Italian grandma, the grilled eggplant and spinach too gruel-y and salty, respectively, to consume, and the meat dishes decent in texture but so cornstarch-sauced that my Beef Francesina was swimming in mucus.
  
  But then again, there is no pretense of fine dining. This restaurant knows what it is - a cafeteria to serve out massive portions to feed the hungry who stumble upon their hot kitchens. They're not here for great service or Michelin awards. For that, bravo. For Yelp, 3 stars.

  Da Giorgio's main attraction is their ridiculously cheap 3 course meal complete with wine of your choice. The wait to be attended to and served food and drink is extremely short, so that's a wonderful change of pace for most of the town. However, the food really isn't all that great, even if you're not really paying that much. The flavors are strangely uniform no matter what dish you get, the meats tend to be overcooked, and everything is a tad too salty. Still, the pasta was cooked decently well (even if its flavor was lacking), you get a 1/4 L of wine and 1/2 L of water, and the portion sizes to each entree is substantial. It's certainly probably a step between Italian food you could find in a strip mall in America and a lower-tier Italian restaurant. Not good, but not terrible either.

  Very good place to eat for dinner. Reasonably priced (1st course + second course + wine + water) for 15€ and no sit down fee. Only negatives was that the water was not sealed and there were bones in the cod fish. Other than that everything was delicious. I had the bufala caprese for my main dish and the spicy pasta for my first - they were both very good and it came with a side salad as well! He even offered a homemade red pepper oil to put on my spicy pasta which was delicious. Very nice interior with pretty pictures and decorations.
