    One of my favorite restaurants in Florence. Amazing food, ambience, and service. I always get a hugo spritz when I’m here, they make them so good. Can’t go wrong with anything you order. I love the Pappardelle with the boar sauce and the truffle pasta. Also, the Florentine steak is so good, one of my favorite things to get here. Amazing place!!

    Great food and service! Went beyond my expectations. The beef was seriously worth it! It’s tender and very flavourful.

    Adorable set up and friendly staff. Food is outstanding and perfect for solo travelers as they have some 375mls on the menu if you want more than a glass but less than a whole bottle. Ambiance is calm and inviting! Exactly what I was looking for. Outstanding cacio e pepe along with a lovely bruschetta for appetizer. Would recommend to small groups, couples, and solos alike!

    Nice restaurant, tastefully decorated, back room air conditioned. Service was generally good but one course came very late for one of 4 guests when all others were finished with their meals. The food was good, well presented, but nothing of outstanding note. We had salads, pasta, liver starter & charred octopus.

    Wow. This was an unexpected treasure! The inside vibe of the restaurant is so charming and the staff extremely welcoming. They made the best recommendations. And the food was equally amazing. We had to order Florentine steak and they even brought it to our table and weighed it before grilling it. HIGHLY recommend if you are in Florence. Make a reservation!

    Amazing from beginning to end. The food, the venue, the wine, the service— all impeccable in a family-type setting. Laurie was a cheerful and friendly, multilingual waitress with the best recommendations. Do not miss this place.

    The staff and our server were very friendly. The food was fresh and well seasoned. We had to send our steaks back to be cooked more as they were too rare but they were very tasty.

    Poor service. Ordered a pre dinner negroni that took 30 minutes to arrive. Ended up drinking it with the meal and never offered anything more. The food quality was average at best, and the prices are high. The highly rated reviews of this place are clearly false. A tourist trap.

    Osteria Cancello dei MacciOwner

    Hello dear Darby Than you for having dinner by our restaurant First of all your reservations was in 8:00 pm and you came 30 minutes late, and we did our best and found table for you. But that is not all! On the moment that you sat in your table you wanted to order immediately the drinks and the food where there was other tables waiting. Your Negroni took just 6 minutes to be ready and this I can declare because everything is documented in our system. I don't know what do you mean with 'never offered anything more' but we we brought you what you ordered and in the meat we offered a free limoncello to you There is a lot of people who apprise our quality of food that we work hard every day, so I will not consider your opinion! The reviews are REAL as we are, not false as you are. Is better you stop doing the tourist around Thank you!

    Went here for dinner with my mum, step dad and girlfriend before my cousins wedding. The service was second to none, explained what they would recommend and what is a fan favourite when caught between 2 options. They were very fun and had a good laugh with us. The food was amazing, the flavours in the pasta and meats were popping and the steak was incredible. I would come back here next time I visit Florence.

    The food we received did not match the images on the business’s website. The liver on toast was inedible and the pasta ragu was just flavourless mince meet in a ‘sauce’ and the incorrect pasta was accompanied with the dish, would not recommend!

    Food was spectacular, waiter was charismatic and ensured we were going to like the meals before we ordered. And the view of the kitchen and character features of the interior is just an added bonus.

    This restaurant is quite hidden away from the main tourist areas and feels very authentic- the welcome is so friendly and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout. The food was delicious- I had the salmon starter and chicken main course and both were delicious- we were a party of 4 and everyone was very happy with their food. Would highly recommend a visit here!!
