Bollicine&Tortafritta In Villanova sull'arda

Just had a great evening at this lovely restaurant with beautiful views of the Castle at Vigoleno. Very good quality charcuterie with top class hams also, mixed cheeses, Torta Fritta, fried Polenta and sweet & sour homemade crispy vegetables. The homemade Pasta is of very good quality and light as a feather, The Fiorentina Steak is exceptional full of flavour, tender as butter and cooked to perfection, good choice of homemade sweets, I had the Pistachio semi freddo which was delicious, we washed it all down with a good bottle of Prosecco and Local fizzy Gutturnio, finished off the meal with oak aged grappa & coffee. Service was excellent, efficient and very friendly. If in the area can only highly recommend!

A truly beautiful venue with a magical location opposite Vigoleno Castle. Menu featuring excellent products and exceptional wines. I'll definitely be back.

Nice place, excellent food and hospitality

Modern and welcoming, very well-kept atmosphere, excellent food. Very kind.

Good restaurant, delicious gnocco fritto and ravioli; the bill is a bit high. The appetizers alone are as filling as a full meal. The only downside was finding out at checkout that the gorgonzola wasn't included in the cheese platter but was €7 extra (it wasn't communicated when ordering).

I went there last Tuesday for dinner with my wife to celebrate our anniversary. What can I say? Fantastic welcome from the staff, stunning accommodations with a view of Vigoleno Castle, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and not to mention the fabulous food. A final surprise for the occasion, everything was perfect.

What an unexpected find in a small out of the way location. You should make the trip just for this restaurant. We don’t speak much Italian and the server didn’t speak English, but it didn’t matter. We muddled through and had an incredible lunch. We shared the salumi board and the tortelloni verde with mushrooms. Along with a delicious slightly sparkling white wine. Incredible. Then we walked around the walled city and Borgo Di Vigoleno castle. A lovely afternoon stop on our way Parma.

We visited this traditional restaurant in the Salsomaggiore area, specifically Vigoleno, last night with our girls, and the experience was truly enjoyable in every way. Upon arrival, we were greeted with great warmth and the service was always responsive, helpful, and attentive, without ever being intrusive. We sampled the classic gnocco fritto (fried dumplings) accompanied by cured meats: a true delight. The freshness of the ingredients was immediately apparent, as was the care taken in their preparation. Each dish was served with perfect timing, always maintaining excellent quality. The atmosphere is comfortable, quiet, and very relaxing, perfect for enjoying a leisurely dinner. One detail that particularly struck us was the splendid view of the castle, which makes the atmosphere even more evocative and characteristic. In conclusion, a restaurant that combines tradition, quality, and a genuine welcome: an experience I recommend to anyone who wants to experience the best of the area's cuisine and hospitality.

Beautiful and very romantic place, exquisite dishes and very kind staff!

Excellent food! Attentive staff and beautiful view!
