Le Botteghe di Donatello

Sitting directly adjacent to one of the most beautiful buildings in the world, I expected subpar food. The rent must be exorbitant and you gotta make a profit somehow, so you cut the quality. I will say that our waiter was excellent: soft spoken, completely competent in English, helpful in ordering, and patient. They did not cut costs on the wait staff.
We also chose this restaurant because of their gluten free menu, which my sister appreciated. The food was fine. With unbelievable food within blocks, you’re buying an amazing location and fun people watching. Both of these are worth it. The food was perfectly fine. I’m glad we went here, though most of my meals will still be where there’s terrific food.
