Decided to try the Florentine a couple of weeks after it had opened with my wife. Previously a Marston's restaurant known as the Fullwood Inn, we had in the past had some very nice meals there. The Florentine is primarily a pizza restaurant but you can get an expensive steak there if you require.
The pizzas are comparably priced with other restaurants in the Sheffield area. We both decided to try the signature dish, The Florentine Special. We didn't have to wait too long for it to arrive. It was quite large, looking like a dried-out wash leather, and although I have never tasted a wash leather I suspect it tasted like one. In the centre in minute quantities were roasted bacon, pulled pork, meatballs, parsnip crisps, caramelised apple, onion, mozzarella and a smear of tomato sauce. All served on a wooden board. Not the best pizza that I have tasted.
Having said that the service was brilliant. The waitresses were friendly and polite, although a little inexperienced.
We have 4 reviews of Florentine.
