We loved the food so much. The bread was delicious with the mountain of mortadella to start us off. The flavours were insane in both the paccheri and the tagliatelle. The tiramisu was great, less sweet than some that I’ve had, but a great mascarpone flavour and you could actually taste the coffee flavour too, which a lot don’t really have. We stumbled on this restaurant on a day trip from Lake Garda and as we were trying to get away from the busy centre of Verona, but the restaurant was still very full and just managed to squeeze us in. Seemed to be mostly locals compared to tourists too. Would recommend a reservation if you are planning on coming here

One of the best meals we’ve ever had in Italy. They know what they’re doing. Make reservations, they fill up fast.

Very local, very authentic, but still for an audience that is mixed in age and Not too touristy. If you want a great evening with local delights, this is a great place!

For dinner with friends, we had appetizers of mixed cured meats and cheeses, some good in my opinion, others a little less so (basic). I didn't appreciate the complimentary mortadella placed on the table with the menu because, at least in my case, I shared it with friends who ate with their hands. I enjoyed the tartare, and we had a good bottle of red wine (Marion) at a reasonable price. The coffee was bad (forget it), but thank goodness they have some good bitters.

A typical Verona restaurant recommended to us by locals, with a nice atmosphere and decor. The food was very good and homemade. We ordered eggs with asparagus as a starter, which were fabulous, followed by lasagna and tagliatelle. I recommend it.

Great place, really happy I found it. Real Italian food, i believe most of other guests were Italians and not tourists so you know it must be good. Amazing vitello tonnato, great steak, we also tried tagliatelle and was nothing to complain about. Another success was the wine, and on top of that everything was reasonably priced. We had an online reservation and they couldn’t find it so perhaps better do it via phone so you don’t miss the experience.
