Florence Dining Alfresco but with Heaters?

Hi,
Thinking about trying to eat out-of-doors for some of our dinners in Florence -- both for the scenery/ambiance and for lessening exposure to the virus. As it may still be a bit chilly in the evenings in mid May I was wondering if they have outdoor heaters that some restaurants in the US have. Naturally, we could just bundle up a little as another solution. Thanks for your thoughts.

Was there two weeks ago and more restaurants with heaters then customers to dine under. Temperatures were ok. Those heaters are up most all the time.

Forgot one thing, many places will have blankets if you fine a chill in the air. Our last Sunday in Rome (Palm Sunday) was a little cold and windy, but sunny. Husband and wife did enjoy a pair of red striped blankets. We enjoy the heaters and exactly bought two for our gazebo.

In May 2019, we were in Florence and it was unseasonably cold. One evening, we had cocktails at the rooftop bar and when it got chillier, they gave us blankets. I'm glad because it was so beautiful we didn't want to leave.
