Description: In the lively and crowded environment of the Central Market of San Lorenzo, in the heart of the city of Florence, was founded the restaurant Za Za, in one of the buildings survived at the time ... Or maybe it's better to say that it is here that still lives: where now Za Za, in fact, since the early nineteenth century there was a small inn. It is 1977 when Stefano Bondi, born at number 18 of the Main Market Square in the old house of aunt Tonina , baptizes with the name Za Za this dining room and open to the public. It was April 7. At that time, Zà Zà was a small restaurant. Stefano Bondi worked with his mother from the beginning. Her role was fundamental in Bondi’s life, as well as being the soul of the restaurant, to which she devoted her whole life. A dish is not born by chance. In addition to creativity, which is indispensable, it requires “technique and common sense, an attention to timing, to each ingredient, and to the condiments, too…”.

My god so bad. My first terrible meal in Italy. So tough. The steak specialty recommended, ploughhhh. Come to Adelaide I'll cook you a lovely grass fed Black Angus. Everything else was good. Just don't order steak.

On the recommendation or Elisabetta at Hotel Cosimo de Medici we went for lunch at Trattoria Za Za. We were treated extremely well by the friendly helpful staff who ensured that my wife got a superb gluten free spaghetti dish. The beef with truffle sauce that I had was also first rate. We really enjoyed our experience. Thank you to all the team at Za Za for a great lunch.

It was one of my best gastronomic experiences in my life and the best place i ve been in Firenze. The owner of our appartment recommended us and it was a great tip. First night I ordered "Truffled carbonara spaguetti" and after tasting them, I really wanted to cry. I love this dish and it was the best one I ve ever tasted by far. We wanted couple more times and it didnt disappoint us at all. Perfect food, perfect atmosphere and nice waiters. Also the price is reasonable, very good actually considering the quality of the food. You may have to wait for a table although the place is huge but it is really worth it. Dont leave Firenze without going there.
