il Pacchero - pizza e cucina

Good meal, relatively good price, simple menu. Pizza was delicious as was the pasta and caprice salad. Place is nice and clean. Service could have been a tad more friendlier and amicable. Been to other places where the service makes the meal, sadly this was not the case, friendly treatment was lacking but the food made up for it. We spend €75 on 2 spritz (€7 each) caprice salad, pasta, an antipasti to share and a pizza this was for 3 people.

I had a yummy eggplant pizza, a delicious, tender polpo (octopus) starter, and a nice glass of the house red wine- all with views of the river Arno and Ponte Vecchio - I think I got the best seat in the house and got to try the homemade spicy pepper sauce! The service and location were excellent - it was a wonderful bright spot on a rainy, chilly day. Definitely check it out if you’re in Florence!

The pizzas were great. They were very tasty and they were overall great. My partner and I had a Margherita and sausage and mushrooms pizzas. My mother had the fusilli pasta. The past was excellent, with great flavour and good taste. We also ordered a Caprese salad. The biggest disappointment of my life. For some reason, the owners decided that a caprese salad should have croutons and lettuce (like why would you do that???). I was served an Americanized Caprese salad. Why aren't the pizzas and the pasta Americanized as well... Anyway, it was very disappointing. I find the prices of the higher end of what a restaurant should charge, but it is Italy and Italy is just like this. Be aware that there is a cover charge. They say that in Europe there are no tips, but cover charges are just as bad as tips.
