Ristorante Borgo San Jacabo, Florence
Disappointing
We had dinner at Borgo San Jacobo and it was a huge disappointment. The food was nothing special, although the desserts were very good. The food wasn't bad, it just wasn't especially tasty or interesting. The service was slow. We had a five course tasting menu (which included a few amuses) and dinner took three hours. The staff did not seem well coordinated. We were asked the same questions by different staff members, although they were all friendly and did seem to be trying to please.
We were hoping to be wowed and the experience was far from that. We had much more satisfying and tasty meals at other Florence and Milan restaurants and the Michelin starred Ristorante Berton in Milan was in another league. We would not return.
