Bar e Cucina da Mario In Ferrara

Discovered by chance two years ago... the set menu during the week is good and the à la carte menu on Sundays is equally good... excellent fish... always friendly staff... average prices... I recommend it.

A small town trattoria specializing in seafood. A varied menu with a few meat dishes. Seafood reigns supreme. High quality, attentive and courteous staff. Prices are reasonable for the menu and service, though a little less so for the type of restaurant.

I know the owner, I've been there and I'm very happy with the top cuisine and excellent service!! Well done. I've already booked again.

A lovely surprise! Just a short walk from the city, this bar and restaurant pleasantly surprised us, but more importantly, satisfied our taste buds! The seafood menu is varied and includes excellent options, beautifully presented, the service is excellent, and the wine list offers a good selection! The dishes were generous...we didn't try the desserts, but we'll be back to try them too! Well done! The welcome was very friendly and welcoming, thank you!

The manager was very kind, and the staff was friendly and helpful. My mom and I had a truly excellent fried fish dish!

Seafood dinner with friends. The scallops were excellent, truly excellent. The mixed grilled fish was good. The fries were plentiful. The grilled meat was also excellent! The wine recommended by Mario himself was spectacular!!! Average prices. I'll be back!

The evening didn't start in the best way, unfortunately: we are a family celebrating the birthdays of 3 out of four members. One of us is vegetarian. After having made sure at the time of booking that there was a vegetarian menu, we went. When the menus were delivered, however, we realized that there was no real menu with vegetarian choices, only two dishes (cappellacci and passatelli) that could have been. After having spoken to more than one waiter, in the end they informed the owner - who was sitting at another table - who said out loud and nonchalantly that he had forgotten. (Ah. Very good). After a few moments of no waiters, a third one arrives and asks for the order again. Let's report the situation again. He was the only one who took care of resolving the mix-up. A note of merit goes to him: he tried to do everything possible to make the evening pleasant, looking for solutions that could meet everyone's approval. He offered a final spirit and one of the two bottles we had consumed, he made sure that the service was impeccable. We had an appetizer of pinzini and we accompanied it with cheeses and burrata as an alternative to the stracchino that they didn't have: well made and fresh cheeses. Let's ignore the fact that the vegetarian dish arrived with a slice of crispy bacon on top, for the rest the orecchiette with swordfish were very good, the seafood salad too and the mixed fried food was well fried with a nice crispy batter and not greasy. Although from the outside it looks like a village bar, inside the rooms are well-kept and there is air conditioning. There are tablecloths and cloth overtablecloths, the chairs are plastic but comfortable. The food is of excellent quality, it's not the first time I've been there and it confirms this once again. The restaurant has become increasingly well-known and a table for four people will not bring profit to the place, but I would have expected that at least the owner would have shown up at the table with an apology or at least alternatives instead of avoiding us for the whole evening. Mistakes happen and it is not mandatory to provide alternatives to the menu you offer. But if you confirm a service upon request you cannot wash your hands of it when it is not actually provided.

Excellent cuisine, excellent chef, excellent service

Lunch with friends. Fish dishes (1 grill, 2 fish starters, 2 mutton, 1 roast potato) Fair price. Everything excellent. Fast and friendly service. Spotless bathrooms. A few parking spaces in front of the restaurant, alternatively on the side of the road.

Dinner with friends outside the canonical days, always nice to see each other again, then the really good food in a family context... and finally the price is more than consistent with the quality. KISS.KISS
