Podere 39

An absolute delight here! We’ve been in Florence for 4 days so far, and we’ve come here twice already. Truly enjoyed the food, desserts, wine choices, & service here. Ambiance is impeccable. A shout out to the two ladies who have served us, they’re absolutely sweet and extremely accommodating.

Podere 39 is my favorite restaurant in Florence!!!🥺 So good that my sister and I came here twice in four days. I genuinely enjoyed every single dish I had. The cheese balls and ricotta pasta weren’t as heavy as I assumed it would be. I’ve never had pasta like theirs before. The flavors weren’t too overpowering and complimented each other perfectly. Above all, the desserts here are INSANE. As a huge sweet tooth, I have had a ton of tiramisu desserts. This one is by far the BEST one I have had. The cream and sponge cake were perfect consistency. Became so obsessed with it that I just had to take one tiramisu to go. 😂 (2 tiramisus to go on the second visit) On my second night here, I tried their cheesecake dessert. That was heavenly. Huge shoutout to the two ladies, especially Ginevra, who served us both nights!! Thank you for making some arrangements/accommodations to let me take home some tiramisu with me!!! 🥹❤️

Fantastico I loved everything about this place. Beautiful, delicious food, gorgeously presented. Rustic charm. Great service. Far enough away from the inner city so that the restaurant is not full of tourists. Just have to say that the meringue dessert I had was a lesson in culinary simplicity. You crack it open….

The best meal we had on our holiday! Beautiful, romantic setting in a flower shop. Lots of locals eating in. Amazing wine selection and great recommendations from the staff. The ingredients were all top quality and amazing flavour combinations. No English menu and weak signal just as a heads up but it was part of the experience for us!

Amazing dinner and very good service in an area off the tourist track. The day before we had eaten at another Bib in Rome and couldn’t understand how it had made the list. Podere was 10 times better and 50% less expensive. We will be talking about this amazing dinner for a long time!

There are very few times I have found meals to absolutely be perfect with exceptional food, wine, and service......The meal we had at Podere 39 was absolutely perfect. The service was top notch. Every dish from start to end was exceptional and innovative. Each wine we had complemented the dishes we ate. The blueberry grappa was a perfect end to the meal especially since we needed a digestivo. I'll definitely be back to this place again when I'm in Firenze.

Great place for dinner in Florence! We were told by locals to go there and so glad we did. It feels more local being very small and not in the super touristy areas. The food was amazing and had more local Florentine dishes. We ate the rabbit spaghetti which was one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. We also had the tortell, which was also incredible. The zucchini flower with ricotta was out of this world. We also had a bottle of wine and it was all very reasonable priced. I'd definitely recommend for a great meal.

We lived in Florence for 5 weeks and this is the best meal I had. It’s different than the other restaurants which is hard to find. Feels like modern Italian. Everything is extremely fresh as it’s all farm to table. Couldn’t recommend this place more. Great service and a cool space.

Cute, rustic restaurant that's a flower shop by day and restaurant by night. Features on the Michelin Guide as a bib gourmand. Didn't make a reservation but came at opening and was able to get a table for two. Restaurant has a farm where a number of the ingredients also come from (podere means "farm"). Started with a chicken liver app on bread with pickled onions. One of the best chicken livers I've had. Lightly sweet, savory and the pickled onions cut through the dish nicely. Next was a rabbit pasta that was divine with a perfectly al dente chew to the noodle. Not overly gamey. Followed by a beef tongue entree which was lightly breaded and so soft. FInished with a cheesecake that was light and rich with some fruit preserve to add sweetness.

A little off the beaten path, 20 min walk south of Ponte Vecchio. Cute, small restaurant with limited seasonal menu but cooked to perfection. We had a wonderful meal. Everything was delicious, worthy of its Michelin recognition. Service was slow but to be expected since they seemed under staffed. Best to get a reservation due to limited seating and popularity of the restaurant.

Absolutely disgusted by this service. They enjoy creating waste and making customers pay to put food in the trash. My husband went down to get us dinner. I was in so much pain for arthritis in my ankle that I could not come downstairs. We are staying in the building. They would not allow him to bring me the food. They made him pay to put the food directly into the trash can. Unless they eat the food themselves. They must eat the food themselves. It's disturbing to think they out the food in the trash. But I'm guessing they make people pay for it and then Eat it themselves. Horrible service.

Amazing spot off the beaten path in Firenze! When you walk into Podere 39, it's like you're being transported to another world. The small space is what I'd imagine Heaven for a florist might look like... I'm happy to report the food is as magical as the decor. The dishes we ordered were inventive and flavorful, many featuring fresh produce from the owner's farms. My favorites included pretty much all the antipasti we shared (beef carpaccio, tuna poke, fried rabbit, fried mozzarella), the pasta with kale pesto, and the cheesecake! Ooooooh, that cheesecake was SO good!! If you're looking to get away from the throngs of tourists for a delicious, nuanced meal, make a reservation at Podere 39 (I messaged them via WhatsApp), throw on your favorite garden party outfit, and get ready to have what will be your favorite meal of your vacation!

Podere 39 makes you feel like you stepped into a different world when you arrive. The decor is beautiful and unique. The food was good but very elevated. At times it felt like there was too much going on in one dish. The service wasn't the best I've had in Florence just based off speed. Our server answered all the questions we had and had no problem accommodating us for a peanut allergy but we found ourselves just waiting and waiting. If you aren't in a hurry, I say absolutely try this place out. But we got here right when it opened 7:30pm, we finished eating at 9 pm, and didn't receive check until 9:30pm (despite trying to flag our server down and her knowing we were finished since she cleared the table). Wish we would have been able to spend the extra 30 minutes walking around the city instead of waiting for our check.

We were looking for something to eat and stumbled upon Podere 39. If you are looking for a small, delicious, and different Italian food restaurant, this is it! We ended up making reservations for the next night!
