Trattoria Omero

Local trattoria that serves delicious traditional food - they even have their own wine and olive oil! The staff were very welcoming and helpful and everything we ordered was outstanding. They also have a small shop that sells deli meats, cheeses, antipasti and pasta. Worth a visit on the 38 bus from Porta Roma (10mins) if you don't have a car or aren't staying close by.

This trattoria is a diamond. Fantastic view from the terrace, very good service. Great wine selection. Most importantly, the quality and freshness of dishes is great. You will love all flavours. To be recommended is the Steak Florentine style (basically nearly 1 kilo of meat for 2 persons): just excellent meat! We had a great evening there and will.for sure come back there if we have a chance.

Ask for a terrace seat if you like views (who doesn’t?!) The clientele was a good mix of visitors and locals on a Saturday lunch. Serving fairly classic regional dishes, I particularly enjoyed the pasta dish (tagliatelle and sauce with anchovies, “egg drop” and breadcrumbs) and noticed various pasta dishes on all the tables around us. The tagliata of steak (sliced steak) was also decent though I’ve had better elsewhere. Didn’t get a chance to snap a picture of my dessert “soufflé with chocolate and pistachio” but just a caution, it is not a soufflé but a warm chocolate fondant cake with a pistachio core and pistachio ice cream. Though it wasn’t a soufflé, it was nevertheless delicious and just as happily received. All in all, a good way to spend a Saturday lunch just a short distance from Florence!

Our families favorite restaurant! The food is fantastic, the service is amazing and we love Omero's. Ercole & team, we've celebrated so many holidays and celebrations with you, you are so accommodating, 5 star service. Thank you for everything, see you soon.

Very good food in an amazing Tuscan environment. But it’s pricey, even by Florence’s standard. We had the peach salad, the tortelloni with saffron and the pappardelle with duck ragù. All very tasty.

If you are looking to get out of the city and enjoy a sensational view of the countryside, I highly recommend this restaurant! Courteous Staff, Friendly accommodating Manager, family friendly, and you are Not rushed. Best food and service we enjoyed on our long trip in the Tuscany region!!

Well worth the short trip outside of Florence. Easily accessible by taking the 38 bus. Beautiful views and wonderful service!

Very tasty cooking here, really good Tuscany food. Nice place, good wine and steak with seasonal vegetables fried. True Italian athmosphere. Respect to a chief.

Set in the hills outside of Florence, Omero has been a destination for great Tuscan food for generations. Grilled meats, fried vegetables, seafood and chicken and standouts. The grilled chicken (Polo alla Matone) are famous! Get a table by the window so you can see the sun set over Florence!

This restaurant was okay- the view was fantastic and the food was average. I really liked the appetizer but wasn't a fan of the chicken or mixed salad. It's a bit of a pain to get to because there's nothing else around. We had a nice time but won't be going back. You don't need a reservation, but if you have one you will get a table with a better view!

Such a lovely setting--great views of the Tuscan countryside. Nice wine list and impeccable service--attentive and friendly but not overdone. Enjoyed the simple fare with mixed green salad, pasta with a duck ragout and roasted chicken. All delicious and authentic. Made for a splendid break after a walk from Villa Agape.

This was the best meal we had on our trip. The terrace was amazing, great view across the valley. We had a long and pleasant dinner!

So so amazing. The marinated artichokes and omero style pasta is unreal. The ambience is perfect. 11/10

A wasted trip here. The service sucked, poor drink selections, and the menu was severely lacking. What they do have is a view, but at night you can't see anything. Far better restaurants in Florence so pick another.

Fantastic! Getting there is a trip! Through a tiny winding road to what appears to be atop of a cliff. Great food, service, and view.

excellent food, beautiful location, reasonable prices..must visit tuscanian traditional kitchen..

I usually only go to restaurants with 4.5-5 stars on yelp but someone else in my party really wanted to go here. So we went and it was the best meal we had in Florence. It beat all the other places we went to by far! And the view is beautiful.

One of my favorites in Florence! I have been dining here since my first visit to Italy in 1991. The "flattened chicken" is outstanding.

To cut to the chase, if you are staying in the Florence city center area, DO NOT BOTHER TO EAT HERE! Based on our other dining experiences in Florence, we would have been much happier eating at a restaurant in town! We went here on the recommendation of our very good museum tour guide and it was described as a "local" place, not touristy. Reviews on Yelp support that as they are mostly in Italian. However, even thought it's not that far, it is in the hills outside the main part of town and a taxi is needed. So, before you even start you are more than 30 euros out of pocket, there and back. They charge € 3 more because you "called" the taxi! It was nice driving into the hills and seeing the suburbs/country, and the view from the back of the restaurant is very nice, rustic. Menu is fine and looked very interesting. However, this was our 5th night in Italy and so far the only lackluster one. The food was very average, nothing was really outstanding. Mixed vegetable plate was good. Tortellini and the fried chicken - very average, not much taste. Asparagus was fine; potatoes Fritti was French fries - really? Chocolate "cupcake" was very boring. And to top it all off, my wife said the waiter was constantly rolling his eyes at us! He was nice enough, but I could see he didn't like that we ordered white wine - the wine list was largely red but other than the tortellini our dishes were "white" and I just did not want red again. And I wanted the dishes above after the first course all together - veggies with main course! - sorry but that's what I'm used to. And then I asked for vanilla ice cream with the chocolate cake. Too many faux pas in one meal I guess. AND, probably 3/4 of the folks there were American it NOT Italian! Oh well, chalk it up to expensive lesson learned and hopefully this will help someone else - the Yelp way!!!

I think it was extremely expensive for such average food. On top of that, service was really bad. In these types of restaurants were you pay this kind of money they usually serve your wine or ask you how you are doing every now and then... Here, you have to ask for things even five times! Yes, five! I am giving them two stars because cheese plate was good. No air conditioning, mosquitos, and no smiles whatsoever. Serve your own water, serve your own wine while I give you dry chicken. Do not recommend it at all.

Omero is an institution in Florence, best known for the steak it offers a good selection of Florentine specialities and a stunning view (in the summer) over the hills. Located in the posh area of Pian dei Giullari, expect an expensive bill at the end of the meal, but also expect a very good Fiorentina Steak and other dishes. It's debatable wether they are the best in town for the steak, but it's not debatable that they offer a consistent (and very good) performance every time.

We went here on the advice of a local woman. What a special place this is, a must if you are in Florence! The drive is a bit tricky but use gps. Park on the edge of the small town and walk. Enter through a butcher shop on the north side of the street. The moment you step in the elegant yet comfortable environment sets the tone for your meal. The wide wooden window cases highlight an unforgettable view. You can't see Florence, but it doesn't matter. It is a stunning view of surrounding wooded hills and valleys. We first went to lunch with some friends from Bonconvento. It was amazing! Delectable! Every dish we shared was perfect, fresh and seasonal. My daughter came to town a few days later with her fiancée. After hearing us rave she insisted we take them there. We were lucky to get the last table. Again, another perfect meal. I apologize for the lack of details about the meal. We were the 3 years ago. I have sent several people there but never reviewed it. I would return in a second! We live in Los Angeles and see movie stars from time to time. Yet our biggest siting was here at Omero's, an ultra famous Hollywood husband/wife and their children. On your way up stop at Basilica San Miniato, better view than Michelangelo Plaza, and an fabulous cemetery in the back!!

We spent 10 nights in Florence and ate at 20 places. This place stood out as the worst. I would not go here ever. The anti past was good but the rest of the food was over cooked and the flavors very subpar. The a service was slow, in attentive and not friendly compared to everywhere else. Beautiful location on a hill but interior is too bright and harsh. Nothing to suggest you go here ever.

This was by far the rudest and worst meal my family has ever had on a vacation. We have traveled throughout Europe several times and have never been treated so poorly. The service was slow beyond belief. There were plenty of menus and quick service for the local families but our table of 9 received very little. The food was uneventful to say the least. With the simple menu one would expect greatness, but the food was as boring as the menu. We skipped desert because after 3 hours the waiter still had not taken our desert order and we had to bring our card to the kitchen to pay.

Bistecca alla Floratina was great especially with a little salt and pepper. The white beans side was fabulous with it. The staff was very friendly and willing to help suggest the perfect wine with the meal. The view is extraordinary being at a high point on the south side of Arno overlooking all of Florence.

Looks like an Italian deli when you enter with Prosciutto hams hanging from the ceiling and dried salamis and sausage in the meat case. But after you pass these riches of meats you enter a beautiful room which overlooks the Florence hills. The restaurant is magnificent with a vast menu of pastas and meat dishes. The wine list is special with many wines of the region. Our waiter Andrew who I would request when you go gave us great recommendations which were right on. We started with a cheese and prosciutto plate of course and a cold sliced artichoke appetizer. Then we had pasta with a duck ragu sauce which was full of rich duck in a light brown sauce. For main courses we had fried veal cutlet with the bone covered with cherry tomatoes and arugula, awesome and a tender grilled steak with shavings of parmesan cheese. Tartufu for desert was the best we ever had. This is a must go place. Prices were in line for a quality restaurant but you won't break the bank. We had a very nice bottle of wine for 30 Euro. That retailed in the states for $22 not much of an up charge.
