Just got back from Italy last Friday.
Best places we ate in Rome:
1) La Penna D'oca - food was excellent, pistachio soufflé will blow your mind. We had actually stumbled upon this place walking around, turns out it's ranked in the top 2 or 3% of restaurants in Rome. It's was very good.
2) Trattoria Cecio - good food, friendly service
3) Osteria Antica Brunetti - don't get the pork bc it's tiny, everything else is good. Really nice atmosphere as well.
Best we ate at in Florence (both recommended to us by our driver who is a local):
1) Trattoria Acquacotta - this place was incredible. Seriously, don't pass it up if you're in Florence. Meatball stuffed rabbit was amazing.
2) Trattoria Gargani - We were some of the only foreigners in the place. Owners personally knew everyone who walked through the door...great local dining experience. Great food as well.

I love Il Guscio, on via del Orto, #49, in Florence. It's across the river, in the nontouristy Oltr'Arno neighborhood. LINK
Also, Rivalto is not too far from Bagni di Casciana, a historic spa town since Roman times. Bagni has thermal pools, including outdoor, naturally heated ones. https://www.termedicasciana.com/tuscany_spa/spa_pools_tuscany.htm
