It is a unique place, a great terrace just round the corner from piazza del Duomo and piazza della Repubblica. It Is a surprisingly calm spot where the noises of the street and of the crowds of people are filtered by the distance (first floor) and the music. The food and drinks are good quality and the staff is always gentle and professional. It is the perfect spot to find a moment of peace during a holiday or just to stop for a special treat.

Phenomenal!!!! fantastic atmosphere stunning setting lovely consistency of service from every member of staff. Charming classy and chilled vibe. Every part of our meal was top class. The food is absolutely fantastic! I fully recommend you try this lovely rooftop restaurant and bar. Recommended wines were lovely and every dish felt like it had such a high level of input not only in the quality of the cooking but the ingredients, like the amount of truffle on both my dishes were so generous my wife said she felt like she was eating it as the aroma was so strong. Very impressive and also very genuine staff.

Cute rooftop bar on the main road! A bit difficult to find the entrance, and the elevator isn't labeled, but that seemed to help make it less busy when the streets were packed. Enjoyed a couple drinks. Would have gotten more, but the waitress barely came around. Did not try the food, but would go back! Also appreciated the blankets to use as it was chilly in March.

Great restaurant for dinner with amazing view on the terrace. We had 1,2kg steak and was enough to feed 2 of us.

The best kept secret in Florence - stunning roof top bar. Minutes away from the Duomo (Cupola del Brunelleschi). We enjoyed Aperol and charcuterie in the sunshine the staff were so lovely and attentive, drinks were flowing and food was delicious! An amazing escape from the hustle and bustle, couldn't recommend enough! Grazie mille

Perched just a stone's throw from Florence’s iconic Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Repubblica, Terrazza Rodo offers a serene rooftop escape that masterfully blends vibrant city views with an intimate, calm atmosphere. This hidden gem impresses not only with its breathtaking terrace setting but also with its thoughtfully curated menu that celebrates traditional Italian flavors elevated by meticulous craftsmanship.

The culinary journey here is a harmonious balance of classic and inventive.

The Uovo Al Tartufo stands out for its generous truffle infusion, an aromatic highlight that lingers delightfully, showcasing the kitchen’s dedication to quality ingredients. Equally enticing are the seafood offerings, such as Spaghetti Fatti In Casa Alle Vongole, where fresh clams mingle with perfectly al dente pasta, creating a symphony of coastal flavors.

Complementing the savory plates, Terrazza Rodo’s selection of aperitifs and desserts elevate the dining experience. The Aperol Spritz is a vibrant, refreshing start, perfectly pairing with the terrace’s relaxed vibe. Their Millefoglie Con Baccalà and Risotto Baccalà present refined twists on traditional recipes, merging creamy textures and delicate seafood notes. For those with a sweet tooth, the Panna Cotta is an absolute must-try—silky and rich, it leaves a lasting impression of expertly balanced flavors.

Beyond the plates and drinks, what truly defines Terrazza Rodo is its atmosphere and service. The staff’s warmth and professionalism create a welcoming environment that invites guests to unwind while enjoying impeccable food and drinks. Whether savoring an Espresso Martini as the sun sets or indulging in classic crostini atop the bustling cityscape, each moment here feels carefully crafted for delight and comfort.

In essence, Terrazza Rodo is more than a restaurant; it's a refined retreat that captures the spirit of Florence—rich in history, flavor, and ambiance. Its rooftop charm, combined with a menu that respects tradition while embracing creativity, makes it an essential stop for anyone seeking both quality and tranquility in their culinary adventures.
