It took us two nights to get in, first night we had no reservations and was told there would be about a two hour wait. Made reservations for Saturday night and still had to wait about 30 minutes to get seated. Food was make quickly and service was prompt. Nothing spectacular on the menu but the food just OK. Wine...

Great menu and choices in English. Good people watching as it is not just tourists. The veal with artichoke was outstanding and the wine list reasonable too. Liked it a lot!

On our last full day of a week in Florence, we were headed for Borgo san Jacopo for lunch at Osteria del Cinghiale Bianco after a morning at the Boboli Garden. We passed Trattoria Cammillo and commented to each other on how it would have been good to go there. As it happened, the white boar was closed (Friday lunch... More

Agree with several of the posters in that this wasn't the best or favorite meal I've had in Florence. That being said, it was a really nice friendly lunch spot with a very good food, menu selection and friendly service. They seem to specialize in fried things (zucchini flowers and artichokes were amazing). We also really enjoyed the beef carpaccio... More

This is a real Italian restaurant with a real Italian clientele especially on Sunday nights when the staff are off. Wonderful second generation restaurant with Florentine classics such as sautéed artichokes, the best pasta Carbonara ever, fabulous steaks, Osso Bucco. Lots of locals and local looking New Yorkers. Maybe the best in town.

Wonderful family owned trattoria. One family member stopped to explain what she was making (a marinade from the bar for the fois gras). Excellent food with a most charming waiterr who more than put up with our attempts at speaking Italian and made us feel as though we were part of the family.

We wandered in to Cammillo's by accident, and fell so hard for the food and the people, that we had to go back the following night! See you next time:-)

Great food, clientele didn't feel touristy at all. Service was good too - we had 3 generations in our party including a 5-yr old and an adult with Celiac. They handled everything with ease and they were able to serve gluten-free food. Tables are quite close together, but it fits the vibe of the place.

went to this trattoria on the advice of a local Florentine. The deep fried zuccini flowers were good & my partner's fresh pasta with peas was average. Main was the Florentine beef with fried potatoes which were like deep fried potato chips, we had better beef in Florence & left feeling slightly disappointed considering the good reviews this restaurant receives....

We went to Cammillo not once, but twice, on our recent excursion to Firenze. Both times the food and service were magnificent — to say the very least — and the wine was pretty darn good too. The buttery pasta with fresh peas, the raw artichoke salad, the torched pecorino, the veal smothered in fresh sautéed artichokes, veal limone, lamb... More
