Trattoria Cammillo
Tortellini with tomato or cream, a much-loved tiramisu and a homey, old-school dining room make this Florentine trattoria a classic that draws a broad mix of diners.
The story
Trattoria Cammillo is an old-school Florentine trattoria with a cosy, homey interior, an open kitchen and knowledgeable waiters overseen by a friendly host. The room fills with a wide mix of diners, and a line out the door is a common sight. The menu keeps to traditional cooking with a few surprises. Tortellini come in tomato sauce or cream, alongside ragù, lamb ragù and spaghetti with garlic and cherry tomatoes. Starters include chicken liver crostini and sage calamari, while mains run from veal and beef fillet to Florentine steak and a seafood couscous. Tiramisu is the dessert to save room for, with crème caramel as an alternative, and red and white wines are poured by the glass.
