A friend and I were eager to try the bistecca di Fiorentina and this place was literally a few feet from our hotel. The waiter was a bit stand-offish, but the food was amazing. Probably the best steak I've ever had in my entire life. Was reasonable priced (for Florence at least) too - 87 Euro for the 2-person steak,... More

We just happened upon this restaurant walking back to our hotel and made reservations for 5 for dinner. I was nervous about eating here without being able to check the reviews on tripadvisor, but I'm glad we took a chance. The decor of the restaurant is very nice. As we were five girls, we ordered five primeri dishes and two... More

BEST STEAK WE'VE EVER HAD. This is a 2 inch thick Kobe quality bone-in t-bone, the signature meal of Florence. Conte Masceti is an upscale neighborhood restaurant with high ceilings, linen, silver, dark wood, and soft light. The waiter's English was excellent, but we chose to use Italian. Service was impeccable. The sides and wine were world class, but the... More

This place is a horror! Looks nice form outside but nothing prepared us for the dodgy service. We were overcharged in such a sly way we didn't even have the will to argue, paid the bill and left. It completely ruined our romantic evening, I feel compelled to warn people off. Don't understand how it has some good reviews. More

We went to the restaurant on a very quiet evening. The owner/manager greeted us with open arms and thanked us for coming, seated us next to the only other occupied table in the restaurant (with loud children) and proceded to tell us the specials. We asked for a menu since I did not want to have to translate everything to... More

Quiet, which suited, but additions in price from bringing the wrong wine (€12 more expensive) to confusing and non existent additions to the main, truffles but no truffles (€10+). This ruined our experience, maybe that is why it was quiet, well done on living up to a stereotype that I thought people were making up More

It looks like a restaurant in an airport. The food is OK at best. I would not recommend this restaurant. I had pasta with porcini and a tagliata (steak). The porcini were average at best. The pasta was out of a box. I think that the maitre and waitress would be more appropriate at a bar. How this restaurant only... More

We went to this restaurant for the steak. We ended up devouring 4 courses. The owner recommended the entire meal incuding the wine from his family's winery. He was very engaging and warm and the service was without fault. Whilst the food was very lovely I felt the prices were a little high but then I found Florence to be... More

We went to celebrate my daughter's 20th year birthday at Conte Mascetti. I chose it because it was the only restaurant in Florence whose trip advisor coments were all in Italian and they were all 5 stars. The cod was fantastic, the house wine excellent and Gianni (I guess ge is the owner) made the occasion so special for us.... More
