Why Travelers Love Florentina
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
4.6 / 5.0(3,257 reviews)
We were a group of 23 people, including guests from different countries, and Florentina gave us the absolute best of Israel — in the dishes, the atmosphere, and the warm, attentive service. Everyone felt welcomed and truly enjoyed the experience. Highly recommended! Wonderful place! We arrived without a reservation (NOT recommended!) but they still managed to find us a table (we were 3 people). Service was friendly and helpful, food arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious!! We got the sweet potato salad (which was incredible), as well as fungi pasta and the Roman pizza. All three dishes were devoured by us. Definitely coming back next time we’re in town Ordered two pizzas and the tortellini for delivery - the pizzas were tiny! Especially for the price, I would have expected a normal sized pizza. They were more like a personal pie. I suggest at least putting the size on the menu so customers know what they are getting. The butter sage tortellini was delicious however.. I’ve also sat at the restaurant but prefer takeaway as it can get quite noisy and I find the staff to be slow

The location and outdoor seating of this restaurant are nice, but unfortunately that’s the only good thing I can say. The food was very disappointing — the pasta was poorly flavored, the starters were not good, and while the fish was okay, it didn’t make up for the rest. The service was awful. The waiters barely approached us, and when they did, it felt like they were doing us a favor rather than serving customers. The bathrooms were also unacceptable: paper all over the floor, soap splattered everywhere, and clearly not cleaned for hours.
