    Tripp and pici
    Eric W.

    If you are staying north of the river, I highly suggest heading south just to be a bit further away from all the touristy spots. And Ristoro di' Cambi is perfect set up for that. There are some tourists, sure, but also a nice mix of locals too. What caught my eyes were the unusual dishes on the menu that I didn't think was catered to tourists. So.... That got us there. The service is good, our waitress was attentive and helpful. Family of 4 ordered 3 dishes to share. One primi (the pici), 2 secondi: trippa (tripe) and florentine steak. All very well prepared and the place is well priced. Be mindful restaurants in the area will charge €2-3 seating fee. Regardless of what you meat read, I don't know you can avoid it in this area. This one charges €2. We will be back again if we are in the area!

    Chicken with lemon
    Cindy R.

    I decided to stop at this place because it had a nice outdoor area. I had to wait about 5 minutes and was seated inside at the end of a long table with another couple. The interior was very large with beautiful buttress brick. I ordered the chicken with lemon (€16) and a house mixed salad with tomato, cheese, & olives (€8) and a glass of Chardonnay (€6). The wine was nice but I was disappointed in my meal. The chicken came out as chunks (that had a little flouring on it when cooked) with very little sauce and 2 slices of lemon. The salad greens were bitter and more yellow in color than green. In hindsight, I wished I had gotten one of their pasta dishes. Looking around me at other plates served, those were much more appealing looking. Total bill (which included €2 coperti + €3 for water) = €35 (~$41USD)

    Homemade cheesecake with berries

    Our hotel recommended this place and booked us a reservation! We ordered the squash blossoms which comes as a side. For the table we ordered the cheeses with fig jam and a liter of Chianti Classico. I wanted something authentic to Tuscany or Florence so I opted for the pappa al pomodoro which I really liked. I also ordered a side of roasted potatoes. Such a cute spot to enjoy dinner!

    penne with tomato sauce, burrata, and basil

    I got the penne with tomato sauce, burrata, and basil and this was by far my favorite meal of my trip! The burrata was so yum and the tomato sauce was perfect. 10/10

    What a welcomed surprise. Food was excellent. I ordered the rolled rosemary roast pork with side of spinach which was excellent. Nephew got the occobucco which was also well done. Ravioli was fresh, eggplant parm was tender and well prepared and delicious. The cheese and fig app and the tomato/mozzarella app were also good. The service was best we've had in Italy since being here 6 days. Attentive and surprisingly fast with food and drink. Service with a smile was appreciated after a long day. The atmosphere and ambiance was also nicely done in Florentino style decor. Thank you for an amazing dinner and I highly recommend it. Price was also fair at $550 Euros for 11 people drinking wine and apps /dinner. Very fair

    I've been coming here couple of years for over a decade. The food is always amazing and service has been good. Be sure to try the lardo!

    Florentine steak & roasted potatoes
    Maggie A.

    So so happy this was one of our meals while in Florence. It was recommended to us as the "very best amazing steak" served specifically here. As a medium steak girl, I was a little hesitant on the rare cooking style, but it was delicious. We had the steak, along with a side of roasted potatoes. We did order a side salad, but honestly didn't touch it once the other food came. We had originally planned on ordering the steak and a pasta (why not when in Italy) and our server essentially told us that no one orders the pasta. Two of us were able to split everything and it was more than enough. Over the meat, a sprinkle of sea salt, black pepper & a drizzle of olive oil was heavenly. Staff was a little overwhelmed but very very friendly. Definitely doesn't compare to the fresh pasta & pizza that you can get throughout Italy, but if you're looking to experience a Florence classic, this is definitely the way to go.

    Steak Florentine
    Rj M.

    Very local non tourist spot. Didn't hear any English spoken from other diners as full on a Tuesday night. Good wine menu. Attentive service and nice ambiance but when full can get loud. Why four stars? Well the Florentine steak was just pretty good ( I'm comparing to what you would get in a NY steak house). Had to send it back when it arrived very under cooked (asked for medium and came out rare). Roasted potatoes and tiramisu were excellent.

    Local bottle of Chianti

    All'Antico Ristoro di Cambi is a traditional Tuscan trattoria that opened in Florence, Italy in 1950. It was founded by brothers Silvano and Bruno Cambi. Originally opened as a simple fiaschetteria (wine shop), they had a small kitchen which served honest food to go along with the straw-covered bottles of Chianti. Although they expanded over the years, the place is still owned by the Cambi Family. They serve some of the best authentic Florentine dishes, steeped in a history of family recipes. My wife and I visited All'Antico Ristoro di Cambi during our honeymoon in 2018. We had heard about the establishment through the Rick Steves guide book. It was advertised as a local hot spot on the south side of the Arno River, away from all of the places crowded with tourists. When we sat down at our table, we were happy to see that the menu was on a freshly printed piece of paper in one language (Italian). This means that all of the dishes are made with ingredients that were brought in fresh that day. For our antipasto, we started out with a plate of Prosciutto and Bocconcini di Buffala (Buffalo Mozzarella cheese balls). For our entrees, I was on the hunt for a traditional Florentine steak. Florence is very well-known for their Bistecca alla Fiorentina, usually made with Chianina Beef (a Tuscan breed of cattle that is prized for its culinary value). The steaks are sold by weight. Our server even brought out the raw steak to our table and waited for me to give him a thumbs up. When Florentines cook their steak, the outside is charred from the heat of the coals, but the inside remains rare as can be. It is then salted after it comes off the grill so it doesn't try out and arrives at the table glistening from a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and hit with freshly cracked black pepper. I ordered a side of sautéed spinach to go with mine. It was the single greatest steak I've ever eaten! My wife is not the biggest steak lover, so she ordered some Stuffed Zucchini Flowers as her entree. To drink, we ordered a delicious local bottle of Chianti. The restaurant had one of the largest wine selections I had ever seen. In Florence, pairing Chianina Beef with Chianti Wine is considered a "good marriage". The following day, my wife and I were on a Chianti wine tour. Our tour guide asked if we were planning on going to a Florentine steakhouse. When we told him that we went to All'Antico Ristoro di Cambi, he slowly smirked and said, "Ahhhhhhh... someone told you about that place!"

As we switched our plates back and forth, I kept looking forward to the next bite of this dish. This indicates that quality of this dish alone. Paired with the Pino Grigio, wow... combination hit all the notes. Service was exceptional. While we did come 1.5hours before closing and noticed the tires looked on the staffs, they were such a trooper and carried on as it was their mission. Such dedication to their craft is commendable. Interior is quaintly decorated with rustic charm. White table cloth service elevated this establishment quite well. Paired with great food, service, and charm... this is an exceptional restaurant. Great job team. You guys are amazing!

It's close enough to the lively, bustling part of Firenze to feel connected, yet just far enough to escape the city's never-ending wave of tourists. The service was incredible, and the owner (I'm pretty sure it was the owner?) brought so much energy that he single-handedly turned the whole place into an eclectic little spot during the "rush hour" of the evening. The menu was solid, if a bit "generic" at times. While everything we ordered was delicious, nothing at Trattoria Giovanni felt like a dish you couldn't find elsewhere... and honestly, that's perfectly fine! It was traditional, comforting, and exactly what we were craving. The plate of cured meats and cheese was phenomenal, a great start to the meal. The pastas were really good as well, though one of the meat dishes had a slightly off texture, with the chunks of meat a bit overcooked. All in all, we loved our meal and would definitely recommend this spot if you're in Florence.

We ordered the 2.6 lb dry aged Florentine steak and gnocchi. The Florentine steak is a must try steak here. It was very juicy, tender, and it was bursting with flavor. The meat was nice and chewy. The steak was gigantic and it is bigger than my head. They first bring out the raw steak and weight it in front of you. The steak is enough to share for three people. The gnocchi was also very delicious. It was cheesy and rich. It was also in a way creamy and the cheese just melted in your mouth. One of the best things I've ever put in my mouth and eaten. The cheesecake is very famous in this restaurant. We tried it and understand why. The cheesecake was super creamy and soft. I had a great time and experience here.

He was awesome and had us laughing the entire night. We peppered him with a lot of questions about the menu, he answered everything and also accommodated my father-in-law, who is GF. He had his own GF bread basket and was able to order almost anything on the menu. We ordered a nice bottle of Montepulciano red for the table that was $48. Others had the Hugo spritz. For app I had the anchovies with roasted red pepper, sea salt and oil over grilled crostini, very good. I skipped first course and ordered the ribeye steak for my main course. Bone in, medium rare, sprinkled with sea salt and a side of onion marmalade. The steak was very good and had way less fat than I expected. The waiter suggested a huge steak for the table, but I was the only one ordering steak that night. Maybe next time. Others ordered the fillet and it was cooked perfectly, the angels and demons gnocchi, and the veal scallopini. Everybody was pleased Really cool spot with a very good wine selection, drinks, excellent food and a fun atmosphere that you don't find at many places. Nugo was an A+ server.
