10/04/2026: The food was decent: we had pumpkin tortellacci and mixed grill. Everything was acceptable. Perhaps the tortellacci were a tad overcooked and the meat a tad undercooked, but nothing dramatic. The waiters are friendly, as is the staff in general, but table service is what it is. We waited a bit after finishing our meal—but after they'd hastily cleared our table, no one came back to attend to us, and it was difficult to find someone available to order coffee: everyone was too busy taking out garbage bags, clearing other empty tables, picking up used bread, etc.
And while the staff members were very busy around us, performing tasks that are certainly important but which, in my opinion, come after serving tables that are still occupied, we politely waited for someone to glance at us. (By the way, I also worked as a waitress as a student, and that was the first thing they taught me: Don't forget the customers.)
In short, we weren't offered coffee or anything else. The fact is, this is what you ask for when the dishes are cleared away and when you ask the customer how the meal went—the famous "Would you like anything else?" so to speak.
Sometimes you just want to say, "I want you to consider me."
10/04/2026: A great place to eat in Ferrara. The appetizers and first courses are especially recommended, including pumpkin flan with parmesan shavings and pumpkin cappellacci with ragù.
