Osteria Vecchio Cancello In Firenze

Exceptional Florentine steak, extremely friendly staff: a place that perfectly combines cuisine and customer service.

Professional, delicious, very tasty

Very tasty food and the prices represent what you taste! Very kind staff! Very interesting dishes! Worth it!

the best steak we’ve had in Florence! we were absolutely blown away. reservations are recommended because they’re understandably always booked! amazing wild boar ragu and panna cotta too! the servers are so amazing and hardworking ❤️

Very welcoming place and excellent food, very kind people, even towards children! Recommended

We made a reservation and visited. Within 20 or 30 minutes, the place was packed. Our group was the only Koreans there, and most of the group was locals. That really convinced me this was a local favorite. The atmosphere was cozy and warm. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Most importantly, the food was also highly recommended. The salad, with olives, walnuts, cheese, and tomatoes, dressed with a savory olive oil and balsamic vinegar, whetted my appetite. Then, I filled my stomach with a mushroom-flavored pasta and a sirloin T-bone steak. (I can't remember the exact name of the pasta, but it was described as having mushrooms.) We finished off with a delicious tiramisu. It was a perfect dinner. I'm not a wine drinker, but I was so captivated by the flavors and atmosphere that I drank the entire bottle. The wine was a red wine with the restaurant's name on it, and it was a nice, light drink. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to try a restaurant frequented by locals, rather than the crowded tourist spots. The only slight drawback is the location. Since it's not a busy area, it can be a little scary late at night. I think it's okay to eat quickly and leave like we did during the first shift.

Good morning, We had dinner at this osteria. It's a shame you can't give it more than 5 stars... A warm, family-friendly atmosphere, professional and extremely kind staff, excellent food at reasonable prices. Highly recommended!!! And thanks to the owner for his helpfulness. Thank you so much for everything 🙏

super nice, pici with white ragù 10/10 :)

I ate at this osteria during a vacation in Florence, drawn by previous positive reviews, and I must say they lived up to my expectations. The staff was kind and helpful, and the rib eye steak I ate was incredibly tender and melt-in-your-mouth—perhaps the best I've ever eaten.

Very good and refined dishes. The staff was helpful, polite, kind, and knowledgeable. They carefully explained the dishes we ordered. The price was reasonable. We'll keep it in mind for our next visit. Recommended!
