Trattoria Sostanza Firenze Reviews from The Last Year
Unchanged for a hundred years. Wonderful in every respect
A very special time capsule, apparently unchanged for a hundred years. As our first class immaculately presented waiters brought us perhaps the best Italian food ever, a T-Bone on the same scale of the statue of David I was detracted by the quiet always hard working grey haired proprietor on the front counter. As we left I chatted to him, he followed his father who’d been there for 51 years. He then added that his partner was 3rd generation founder in 1933. SO SPECIAL - unforgettable.
Butter Chicken is the Best
There is nothing more that I can say about the Butter Chicken other than do not miss it. It was fantastic. You may be seated at a table for 6 with others. At first this was a turn off, but we met nice people whose visit was their first time to Italy, and gave them recommendations from our many visits over 50 years. We even bumped into one of them in Rome at one of our favorite places.
Best evening out in Florence.
My sister recommended this restaurant to us. I suggest that whatever you do, make a reservation. It opens at 7.30pm, we were in promptly and within ten minutes it was full. Whatever you do, order the butter chicken. Perfection. I also thought that their zucchini fritti were the best I have ever had. Service is efficient and friendly. Perhaps the greatest compliment that I can pay them, apart from the fact that we had a marvellous evening, is that when we got up to leave we said good bye to three tables around us. Stunning atmosphere and cannot praise it highly enough
Lived up to the reputation
After reading all the great reviews we just had to come during our brief visit to Florence. Since they don't take reservations on line, we asked our hotel to make reservations for us. We came in at 7:30 PM and were promptly and warmly greeted. We had the steak and buttered chicken, which was to die for. It is in a small valley. Google had trouble pinpoint it and tried to send us another trattoria up the street.
Go for the chicken - seriously
Fantastic local spot. Great atmosphere (locals out to eat together who were very friendly to tourists). Saw photos of many famous previous diners About 3 different people told my wife (then fiancee) and myself to get the chicken, which on its face did not sound that interesting. It was perhaps the best chicken I've ever had. I still think about this dish years later. Wild strawberries and raspberries with lemon and sugar were also great. Considered gatekeeping this but it is too good not to share
Good food and good value
The service was first class and the menu had many good choices. Booking is essential as the restaurant is not large. The food chosen was excellent
Get Dessert!
I walked in with my husband, nervous since we didn’t have a reservation, and found out they were booked up to a week in advance! Lucky us, they had a table of three not show up, so on the spot we were fortunate enough to get seated. This is a Trattoria, please remember, so seating is minimal and the area is small, but the charm is endless and the food even better. Our server was charismatic and wonderful, helpful in speaking English with us despite our broken attempts at Italian. We were in close proximity to our table partners, but even they were lovely and social, and they even encouraged me to try the dessert (please get their cake with seasonal berries, it will highlight your week!). Our food was incredibly delicious, and while we didn’t have any wine (shame on me for drinking a bit too much the night before) I saw many enjoying it with a merry atmosphere. The food could have its own paragraph, but I’ve spent weeks here in Italy eating all over, and I was still blown away by how incredible the food was! Well worth the price, and surely the wait if you come here. I recommend a reservation, and of course showing up on time (or you’ll make someone lucky like we were).
Front Desk was extremely rude given we had online
Front Desk was extremely rude given we had online reservations. He claimed that the restaurant doesn't have an email . Regardless, he eventually warmed up on us and ensured we had a table for two. I discovered later this was the owner. Servers were extremely friendly and food came out quite fast. I'm from America so the Florentine steak had something to be desired. Butter chicken was absolutely fantastic - some of the best chicken we'd ever had. It comes out in the pan sautéed in brown butter. Chef's kiss... Ambiance had a hole in the wall feeling but was quite the gem in Florence Italy. There are two sittings each night so be sure to call or have your hotel call for reservation.
A six table restaurant in Florence... simply fabulous
A friend recommended this six table (!) restaurant to us and we're so glad we followed up on her suggestion. Reservations clearly required... and smaller parties may share a table. The four of us had another couple at the far end of the table... far enough away that both of us had privacy but close enought o chat if we wished. The staff is very friendly, profficient in English and know just how to manage a full restaurant placing stress on their small kitchen all at once. They basically have two seating a night..7:30 and 9:00 pm... and have relatively limited menu.. a few pastas, salads and entrees so the staff can submit each course en-masse to the kitchen. We didn't know this but you can bring your own wine..their selection is Chianti. period. We had the Florentine steaks and pasta with meat sauce selections with some different slalds/apps. All were VERY good. The meringue desert is to die for!! strongly recommended by our waiter and we were so glad. Try this hidden gem.. but reserve early and consider bringing your own wine.
I am so glad a Google search of where to eat in Florence
I am so glad a Google search of where to eat in Florence led me to this fantastic little eatery. Unassuming on the outside but full of character on the inside. It's a small and very popular place, so I highly recommend making a reservation well in advance. From everything I read and saw online, I had to go and see what all the fuss is about behind the butter chicken and semifreddo with meringue, chocolate chips and raspberries...it all holds up! The chicken is juicy and flavorful--a nice change from noodles we'd been eating. The semifreddo is light, fresh, and not overly sweet. Perfect dessert after such a meal. So simple but so GOOD! Plus the staff is very warm and charming. Go here! You're welcome.
Very underwhelming- truly shocked at the 4.
6 rating. We came here because my husband was a little tired of noodles and wanted chicken. We ended up getting the butter chicken, florentine steak, green beans and mushrooms. The chicken is tender but relatively flavorless. Menu items are very straightforward with no creativity. Green beans are intentionally cold, mushrooms are plain, steak feels unseasoned. I feel like they let the cuts of meat do the talking, so if that's your thing then you might like it. I personally found myself filling up on bread and wishing I'd gone somewhere else.
Our hotel helped us book this restaurant in advance.
We were running late from our tour and asked our guide to call and let them know. We arrived 15 min late very apologetic and they were so gracious about it. The service was the best we've had in Italy though I would come back for the food itself even if they were mean! We got the chicken breast in butter and it was simply the best white meat I've ever had. I usually avoid white meat because it's bland and dry. This one was tasty and moist! For the reviewers who said it was dry, I wonder if the left it on the pan plate too long. We took it off immediately when it arrived. The tortellini and broth and meat sauce were both also good. The vegetable soup was really flavorful too, as were the mushrooms and string beans we got for sides. My least favorite was the steak- only because we had a better one the other night and because the chicken was so good. With all that aside, the steak is quite good. As I went to pay, I saw a slice of meringue cake on the counter and of course I sat back down and ordered one. It was wonderful and I usually don't care for meringue. The meal was the best we've had in Italy so far overall. We tried to make reservations again for tomorrow night but sadly they're not open. Definitely highly recommend and will come again if I'm ever in Florence.
You just can't get more authentic atmosphere, better
You just can't get more authentic atmosphere, better service (they treat you like you are part of their family), or more delicious chicken in the pan anywhere else. We absolutely love Sostanza and make it a point to dine here every time we are in Florence.

Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I have a similar question, it seems like when money is refunded it doesnt go immediately what is the process of this since its essentially a debit card and not a credit card
