Disappointing Italian Experience
We visited this restaurant for an Italian dinner, drawn in by the great reviews. The customer service was excellent, with lovely and attentive staff. However, the food was a letdown. The "Italian" orange soda, suggested as a non-alcoholic option, was a poorly made mocktail. While the bread for the table was amazing, fresh with excellent pesto, the grilled vegetables were disappointing, essentially a cold salad. The off-menu white sauce vegetarian pasta, though agreed to, was charged as a special and tasted half-hearted and below average. The Tiramisu had a noticeable granulated sugar taste, and I've had much better. Overall, it was an extremely disappointing experience, feeling overpriced for very mediocre food. I won't be returning or recommending this place.

Elegant Dining with a Fashionable Flair
My experience at this restaurant was quite striking. It's a posh restaurant tucked beneath a building that looked as if it were constructed from Lego blocks, presenting a beautiful skirt with an unimaginative blouse. The patrons were dressed as if attending the opera, and I was pleased to see the otherwise unfashionable Francians putting on the ritz for Firenze by Night.

Classic Italian Gem in North Beach
My experience at this old school Italian restaurant in North Beach was wonderful. It's a place that still offers a very nice dining experience with white tablecloths, making it ideal for a special occasion dinner like a birthday or graduation. The menu has so many great things, and the Saturday nights Osso Bucco is incredible. The great friendly staff made me feel totally welcome from the moment I walked in the door.

Authentic Italian Gem
My experience at this restaurant was truly wonderful. It felt like a family-run establishment, far from commercial. I highly recommend it.

Amazing Dinner with Family
My experience at Firenze By Night was amazing. My brother and I met up for dinner in North Beach. Paolo greeted us at the door like family, and Nadia took care of us at our table. We started with the recommended antipasto plate and stuffed mushrooms, which were delicious. We enjoyed a bottle of Chianti with our meal and appreciated that we were never rushed, allowing us to talk and have fun. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the fresh ingredients were offered at a good price. Thank you.

Excellent Food and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was amazing, and the wait staff was incredibly attentive. Our Uber driver recommended it, and thankfully, he didn't steer us wrong. The Gnocchi Firenze was a standout dish. The atmosphere was quiet and conducive to conversation, and the service was top-notch. The only minor challenge was finding parking, which was difficult.

Authentic Italian Gem - Highly Recommended!
My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The Italian cuisine is of the highest quality, truly rivaling the best restaurants in Italy. It was a wonderful surprise and I highly recommend it. We absolutely loved it; the classic Tuscan cuisine was outstanding.

Uneven Quality at Italian-American Classic
My experience at this classic Italian-American restaurant was marked by uneven food quality. While the fish of the day was excellent, other dishes fell short. The salad caprese featured a tasteless tomato, which was particularly disappointing given the availability of fresh, amazing tomatoes in the city. We had a better caprese salad at home the next day. The quail stuffed with sausage was also a letdown; although the sauce and polenta were excellent, the sausage was bland and the quail added nothing to the dish. Considering the price point, such inconsistency is unacceptable. The service and atmosphere were good, but this couldn't compensate for the subpar food, especially the inedible tomato.

Authentic Italian Food for Decades
If you want REAL Italian food, this is the place! The restaurant has been in business for 36 years, which is a testament to its quality. The food is excellent, and the atmosphere is great, both rated a perfect 5. The service also received a perfect 5. While the price per person is between $50–100, the experience is well worth it.

Consistent Excellence at Firenze By Night
My experience at Firenze By Night has been consistently amazing for the past 20 years. The food is always exceptional, with the gnocchi trio being a particular standout. The service is equally impressive, with special thanks to Paulo and Fabio for their outstanding contributions. This restaurant has never disappointed, making it a reliable choice for a fantastic dining experience.
