Hello, I'm looking for recommendations for a restaurant in Florence for a group of about 15 - 20 in late June. I have a couple of places in mind but thought I'd expand the pool a bit. Not looking for anything fancy, just a nice family run Tuscan osteria or trattoria. All responses are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What places do you have in mind?
Might check the Eater Florence Italy website as well as some Florence Italy food blogs for recommendations.
Food blogs are most always insightful regarding restaurants.
Trattoria Sostanza. Loved everything about the place.
Tight squeeze for a party your size but all you can do is ask.
Maybe Trattoria Due G which was a locals recommend would work. Over by the

For a party that big, Ristorante Accademia would be a good choice. It is by, you guessed it, the Accademia.

I highly recommend “The Golden View” restaurant. The restaurant over looks the Ponte Vecchio. The food was great and the prices were reasonable. They could definitely handle a group your size. They have a website that you can look at.

Thank you. I will look into your suggestions. I was thinking of Ristorante del Fagioli or club osvaldo.

Del Fagioli might be able to accomodate you if you book early. You would likely be seated at a couple of long tables. Note that they are cash-only. Another option for a large group is Giglio Rosso. I know it can accomodate large groups as some of the RS tours have group dinners there. I believe they could put you at one long table, whereas del Fagioli doesn't have any tables large enough for 15-20 people. No experience with the other restaurant you mention.
