I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina mantovana

01/09/2025: What can I say...a place of memory...a time machine. Everything was perfect. Marco in the dining room is a fantastic host, after a minute he seems like one of the family, and the guys are no different. As for Matteo, the host, it's wonderful to see how much passion he puts into what he does and how much he transmits to the entire team. The tortelli are memorable, the pasta is made on the spot....Bigoli with tomato and basil is excellent despite their simplicity. The lamb au gratin is heartwarming....The desserts are another heartbreaking experience....It may seem banal, but try the SWEET SALAMI and maybe you'll realize that what you've eaten before doesn't even hold up in comparison....Well done!

31/08/2025: Passion and love for what they do have always led to excellent results over time. Everything was delicious, all the dishes were balanced in flavor and beautiful to look at. The staff were professional, kind, and friendly. We'll definitely be back!!!

21/09/2025: As always, the Hostaria is impeccable, from the food to the service and the courtesy of the staff. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any flaws, nor could any of our guests. A heartfelt thank you to Alessandra and Paolo for yet another wonderful evening...

18/09/2025: An absolute must when we are in the area, we love the Hostaria Viola!

31/07/2025: This was my first time dining at this restaurant under the new management of the Antoniazzi family, and I must say it was a truly excellent experience. The food was exquisite, prepared with high-quality ingredients and presented with great care. Each dish was a pleasant discovery, with authentic, well-balanced flavors and surprising combinations. The service was impeccable: courteous, attentive but never intrusive staff, always available to offer expert and friendly advice. Conversing with the maître d' and sommelier was a pleasure. The location is truly splendid, immersed in a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere. The recent renovation has further enhanced the spaces, maintaining their original atmosphere. You can sense a masterful attention to detail, lending elegance and comfort without altering the character of the place; the materials chosen, the lighting, and the layout of the spaces create a perfect blend of comfort and style. The final highlight was the bar area in a thoughtfully designed, welcoming, and relaxing setting; the ideal way to end a perfect evening. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for quality, beauty, high-end cuisine, and impeccable service. I'll definitely be back!

23/07/2025: This is what Mantua was missing! A top-class restaurant with an elegant ambiance, a beautiful interior garden, and a large wine selection at reasonable prices. The prices for the food are high, but they absolutely reflect the quality of the food. Beautifully presented. We would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special evening.

04/09/2025: We happened upon it by chance while stopping after a long journey and found ourselves at a birthday party at the inn, and it was a wonderful surprise: everyone in the outdoor garden, live music, a buffet with 2 first courses, all-you-can-eat side dishes, 2 second courses, and dessert, and it was all delicious ☺️ we spent €15 each, drinks included. We'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

31/08/2025: Adorable place, we ate outside and it was really nice. The menu was delicious and inviting; definitely try the zucchini spaghetti. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming! I was too full to try the desserts, but they looked incredibly inspiring! When we told the cashier, they gave us some sbrisolona to take away 🥰❤️If I ever come back, I'll definitely be back! For two, we ordered: 1 appetizer, 2 first courses, 2 waters. Total €45. Well deserved!!

05/08/2025: "Divine" experience, everything good, well-prepared dishes.

02/07/2025: Really good food and wine, great service and cosy atmosphere. We will return.

19/08/2025: I found this restaurant by chance and it turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. The food was excellent and the staff were friendly.

23/07/2025: Locale raccolto ma ben arredato e atmosfera accogliente. Menù ricercato e ottima qualità. Personale attento e gentile. Decisamente una cena piacevole

08/09/2025: Every year, returning from the mountains, we stop for lunch at this inn. We enjoy the risotto alla pilotta with "puntel" (a type of pasta). I recommend it to everyone. The ingredients are of excellent quality, and the kindness and courtesy are the hallmarks. There are also other local specialties, such as donkey stew and sbrisolona (a type of bread made with raisins). The prices are fair and absolutely reasonable. I highly recommend it to everyone, perhaps with a reservation. You can experience the atmosphere of the ancient inn. The only drawback is that parking isn't always available, as it's on a public road, and the traffic lights are always ready to give you fines. So be careful, but well done. We'll definitely be back next year.

06/09/2025: Very simple, good food. Risotto with sausage was good. Pike and polenta was good, but not much.

28/06/2025: The portions are excellent and abundant. All the pasta is fresh and homemade. The dishes are tasty and fully reflect the best gastronomic tradition of the area. You should return to taste the many dishes on the menu. The environment is clean and the service is prompt. The staff is attentive and prepared. The house dessert is essential. You leave the table very satisfied.

21/06/2025: Excellent food and generous portions, average prices

08/09/2025: Nice place... we ate well, I recommend it if you're in the area.

23/08/2025: Excellent food, you can taste an exceptional grappa, black cherries and honey...

12/09/2025: Excellent restaurant. Smart kitchen mixing traditions from Mantova, with a rich and so tasteful result!

23/08/2025: Excellent, classy restaurant on the banks of the Mincio. To get in, you have to ring the bell and announce yourself. The food is good, and the location is beautiful. The terraces overlooking the Mincio are very romantic. The tuna steak and the tagliolini with truffle and shrimp tartare are delicious. The bill is reasonable for the restaurant's caliber.

08/09/2025: Good but average, not memorable

31/08/2025: Wonderful atmosphere, excellent service, good food quality, and generous portions. The dishes are simple but very enjoyable.

22/08/2025: It's a shame it's closed, there's no sign on the door, no one answers the phone, but there's call forwarding, nothing on social media. I think out of respect for the customers, it would be better to provide a little more information. We've settled on another place where we've had really good food. Take a little more care of your "customers."

21/08/2025: Always been a great restaurant at the right price.

20/09/2025: The ambience was inviting, would receive courteously, and there was my favorite food, a poem, successful day in Mantua, thank you

19/09/2025: This restaurant is off the beaten path in Mantua...a lovely, welcoming place...we had pizza...it was delicious...and they even brought us a bottle of beer in a glass to keep it cool...

03/09/2025: Very elegant restaurant, excellent food, very attentive and accommodating service. I recommend the generous appetizer of mixed cured meats and the risotto with porcini mushrooms, prawns, and saffron.
