Ora d’Aria was exceptional. The service was flawless and every dish delivered pure pleasure. The lobster pasta was the best I’ve ever had, and the Normandy butter with anchovy was unforgettable. The beef with its cauliflower crust was incredible, and the cod was simple on the surface but the orange reduction gave it real depth. They even brought out complimentary biscuits that melted in my mouth. Watching the chef work in the open kitchen added something special. You can feel his calm, steady presence in every detail. This place deserves six stars.

We stopped here for lunch and this fine dining gem exceeded all expectations. The tasting menu was a culinary journey—from the delicate sea bass carpaccio to the perfectly seared veal. Each dish was presented beautifully, almost too pretty to eat! The sommelier suggested wines that complemented every course. The atmosphere is intimate, and you really feel like the chefs put heart into every plate.

Upon entering the restaurant, the entrance has an amazing walkway of fairy lights that make for an amazing photo. Once through, the dining room abruptly starts and you are left standing there confused until one of the waiters acknowledges you to seat you. On the night we went, there were only two other tables and we were placed next to the entrance such that we couldn’t see into the kitchen. That night, they were training a waiter so we had a weird experience of one waiter with amazing service and attentiveness and another where you would not expect for fine dining (Not pouring water for you, not explaining the dishes, not cleaning up the plates and table after each dish etc.).

Apart from that, food was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed each meal. We opted to select one meat and one seafood course so that we could try one of each dish. Each course brilliantly highlights the local Tuscan cuisine so you won’t miss out whatever you choose.

Given the restaurant is of such a high calibre, we were expecting both the service and food to be perfect. This was probably a once-off issue but unfortunately was our experience coming all the way from Australia looking forward to fine dining in Italy!

One of the most beautiful lunches in recent years. I called and 15 minutes later we were in one of the most beautiful places in Florence. A beautiful entrance to the restaurant, a crazy, hand-painted ceiling and great classics in the restaurant. We opted for the fish menu and were incredibly spoiled with the service and the view of a great lunch. We were able to follow the cooking live in the kitchen and were spoiled with great courses. The atmosphere couldn’t have been better, the food was exciting and incredibly tasty. I can only say that it was a very relaxed lunch of a very high standard. Thank you to the team, thank you to the chef, Marco Stabile, you have enchanted us and from now on we are big fans of yours.

I was blown away by our experience at Ora d’Aria. Coming from NYC, we have no shortage of great tasting menu restaurants that absolutely pale in comparison to this one. Every bite we had was exquisite, decadent, and full of flavor. The waiters were knowledgable about the food and the wine, answering all our questions. I’m STILL thinking about this meal. We went on a Wednesday night, and I’m not kidding, the next evening I wanted to cancel our dinner reservation and go back a second night in a row. I absolutely would have done it if they were not closed on Thursdays.

Ora d’Aria, thank you so much for a fantastic dining experience.

We had an incredible experience here with our friends. The dishes were so flavorful and delicious. They start with giving you an option of meat or fish tasting menu. Pairing wine was an option if you like. The service was great as well. The dishes kept getting better and better. My favorite part was the olives desert. I know it sounds weird but that ice cream tasted so smooth and balanced I almost asked for more but we were all so full. The dining room is small and only a few tables which I think it’s a great idea. I was a bit skeptical coming in reading other reviews but i would highly recommend.

Wow!! Coming from London where we are blessed with many restaraunts and having quite high food standards, we were very impressed with the food and the service. We were able to select our own tasting menu (does not need the whole table to have the same food) which is great so we could try everything they had to offer. Note that they only do red/white bottles by the bottle, but they were able to suggest a wine that would be suitable for both meat and fish dishes.

It is a very small and intimate restaraunt with only about 8 tables, and the kitchen is right there and you can see how they operate through the glass window. The kitchen was very professional and also very quiet throughout the meal. Chef Marco Stabile was overseeing everything, and presented us with our wine. He also helped served other food items for other tables, and overall it seemed like he was very passionate about his restaraunt.

If you’re looking for a fine dining experience in Florence, Ora d’Aria delivers. This Michelin-starred restaurant is elegant without being stuffy. We went for the tasting menu, which was a beautifully curated journey through Tuscan cuisine with a modern twist. Standout dishes included the roasted pigeon with pear and the handmade pasta with smoked butter and anchovy. Every plate was a work of art, and the service was impeccable – attentive but never intrusive. The wine pairing was spot on and featured some lovely regional selections. The interior is modern and minimal, with large windows that let in beautiful natural light during lunch. It’s pricier than most (€100+ per person), but the quality and attention to detail justify every cent. It’s close to the Uffizi but tucked away on a quiet street, which makes it feel like a hidden gem. Perfect for a romantic evening or a celebratory meal. Definitely one of the most refined meals I’ve ever had in Italy.

Some of the dishes (mainly the ones with pasta or risotto) were spot on, but most were lacking that last ‘oumph’. The service was alright at the start but when the place started filling up it worsened; we went from getting detailed information with each wine to only being read the name on the label. I think for the price they set expectations they cannot meet themselves, because there are a good few restaurants in Firenze with tasting menus for less than half the price with so much more excitement for the palette. I am very disappointed jn this experience.

We chose Ora d’Aria to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We love fine cuisine and have had our fair share in the USA. But, Chef Marco impressed us beyond what we have experienced. We chose the tasting menu and we found the cuisine to be both inventive and intelligent. As an example, we were delighted by the artichoke and shrimp course. Chef Marco’s take on this pairing is both playful and pleasing, bringing out the best flavors of both. Likewise, we cannot stop talking about the risotto. Exceptional! Every other course equally dazzled and delighted. The filet, delicious. The gnudo, an elevated yet approachable and comforting bite. Each dish honored the ingredients with thoughtful balance and seasoning. I could go on and on. We were quite satisfied with the service, too. Friendly, professional, attentive. A wonderful dining experience all around.
