Explain "moderate budget". Actual numbers required.

It is difficult to find a bad meal in Italy.

Our reliable old standby is Trattoria Angiolino, Via di Santo Spirito 36, in the Oltrarno area. The fiorentino is delicious and I am not a great carnivore. But do make a reservation, it is popular.

We enjoyed Ristorante il Paiolo, Via del Corso 42. Family-owned and operated.

Authentic Florentine food includes tripe served from a trippaio (tripe cart), but that may be a bit too authentic for most tourists....

I have been looking at David Rocco's recommendations for Rome so I thought that I would pass on the link for his Florence recommendations for you.
