Florence is full of wonderful surprises and this is know exception. Good gelati is important to Italians and even in winter you will lick your lips after these wonderful flavours...they even have the cheese gelato...give it a go! More

We had gelato every night during our weeklong trip to Italy...and once in the daytime too! We had gelato in Rome, Florence, and Venice, and this was our favorite. It was so good we walked all the way across the city on our second night to get it again. Delicious! More

I went to Antica Gelateria Fiorentina on October 6th, 2011, with my wife. We’ve been in Florence now since September 1st and have visited 16 gelaterias in the city and have tasted upwards of 100 flavors between the 2 of us. I don’t think Antica Gelateria Fiorentina could be considered in the Top 5. The have a small, but lovely... More

Dear alpha1243 , don't be sorry: thanks for expressing your opinions sincerely and thank you for your passion for gelato. I don't know how many ice cream shop working in the city of Florence, but always sincere, we would be happy to be considered among the top ten. The Gelateria dei Neri is great and I think Carraia 2 gives... More

We've been traveling around Italy for a while now and have eaten a lot of gelato, and sure enough, this was the best! There are flavours that you don't find anywhere else, and the very friendly owner wanted us to taste many of them so that we'd get the one we really liked! Try this place in Florence! More

I have been in Rome and now Florence for 9 days and have had gelato at least once a day... I'm not yet at the point where I'm satisfied that I've reached the top ... but this was the best value, the best taste and by far the best service... More
