10/10This is a great little restaurant. Make sure you make a reservation because it is quite small. The food was excellent. The service by Walter was excellent. He made us feel welcome and right at home. A small wine list but big enough for good choices.

10/10We had a wonderful experience at Osteria Casio e Vino All’antico Arborio. Don’t let the name fool you. It was way more than cheese and wine. The food was fantastic and the service was excellent. The appetizer will feed 2-4 people and the pasta was the perfect size. Walter, the owner and waiter, was a delight and speaks excellent English. The space was cosy and comfortable.

10/10Wonderful experience. The service, the food, the atmosphere. Everything was perfect. The food we ordered was divine. The mixed cheese board with acacia honey. We were surprised how well the different cheeses paired with the honey. Pici with white meat sauce was one of the best things I've ever eaten. It was so creamy and flavorful. The ravioli and braised duck were both excellent. The duck was fork tender, melt in your mouth. Absolutely fantastic experience!

10/10Beautiful little spot off the main road. Walter was an amazing server. Overhearing another conversation he was having, found out his wife was the chef cooking up AMAZING dishes. We had the Cacio e Pepe and Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli is sage sauce and it was phenomenal. Tip for newcomers, dont go crazy on aperitivos and save room for this amazing spot. 10/10 would eat again.

10/10One of our best meals in Florence! Walter was a gem - so attentive and thoughtful in the service he provided on our first night in Florence. We found out that Walter's wife was the chef and they are a husband/wife run restaurant. The duck and risotto were some of the best I've ever had and the Limoncello Spritz's were amazing. I will make this my first stop the next time I am back in Florence! Please support this wonderful family.

10/10Wonderful, intimate restaurant with a hand full of tables the husband Walter waits tables and the wife does the cooking. Nice menu options featuring of course Tuscan dishes, all well prepared. We had a number of dishes and enjoyed them all. Small put complementary wine selections. Well worth a visit but reservation’s are essential.

8.5/10
Great service, appetizers aren’t their thing, very few options and not good. Their strength is the pasta! The one with yellow cherry tomatoes and the one with duck meat are delicious!!!

Grazie Sara.Maritza...mi ricordo suo marito ha paragonato le nostre acciughe in olio extravergine di oliva con altre mangiate a Roma alla griglia ,quindi e ovio che sono diverse perche nel nostro menu non e scritto alla griglia, mentre le zucchine marinate io specifico sempre che sono preparate con aceto balsamimici di modena ,olio extravergine di oliva,limone sale e pepe : la nostra preparazione è standard ogni volta e suo marito ha detto che avrebbe gradito meno balsamico, però se lo poteva avvisare prima di ordinare sicuramente potevamo accontentarlo ,vi auguriamo buona vacanza in Italia.

8/10
Obviously the florentine steak was delicious and cooked to perfection. One thing that bothered us was how they showed everyone around us their steak before cooking it but not for us so we missed out on that experience. The pasta was mediocre which was very disappointing.

10/10This was our last meal in Florence and it was truly the perfect way to finish our amazing trip. Every dish we ordered was outstanding. The restaurant is quaint and charming. We had lovely service and wish we would’ve discovered this place earlier so we could go back! We had the tenderloin with green pepper cream, mashed potatoes, sautéed spinach and cacio e Pepe pasta as well as the tiramisu. All incredible!

10/10Walter, the owner is very welcoming and personable and his wife creates the wonderful dishes behind the scenes! Homemade pasta, Walter’s attentiveness, and exceptional ambience made this a memorable evening (twice!) for us during our stay in Florence. This restaurant is a must, Make a reservation!

10/10Very glad we found this fantastic place for dinner. It’s a very small place, but the food, the service and the ambiance were all fabulous. We arrived a few minutes early to review the menu posted outside and chose to enjoy the set menu. The pappardelle and pici were excellent and the sliced beef was perfectly done. Topped it off with a wonderful chocolate soufflé for dessert So “simple” yet so delicious. It will certainly make our list of places to return to the next time we return to Firenze.

9/10Very good mom and pop type of place. We ordered the duck and they slightly overcooked it. However everything else was on point. Their Chianti Classico Reserve for $35 a bottle was excellent

8/10Pate was great, but the carpaccio isn't carpaccio (it's thinly sliced tomato), and the risotto and the Gnocchi gorgonzola were not very good. The Italian beef was pretty good
Osteria Cacio e Vino All'antico Borgo • Owner
Sr.Al Luna as I already answered on Google, on the menu we have 2 types of vegetarian carpaccio: 1 with marinated courgettes and grated goat cheese, another with tomato "cuore di bue"and burrata cheese, that is, the one you ordered.Only on request we make beef carpaccio but you never specified.We wish you a happy holiday with your family.
