Hotel Ristorante Ramandolo In Udine

25/08/2025: Very large venue. We were there in the summer during the Palio weekend, which is the peak time of year. However, the large outdoor garden is very spacious, and the noise is diffused even when the place is crowded. The tables under the pergola are very dark. The service is fast, but not organized: we were served by four different people, which suggests there's no separate area or dedicated waiter. Unfortunately, the table settings are lacking, and they really need to be changed. It could be improved with very little effort. A plastic tablecloth placed askew, leaving half the table uncovered, is not a good idea. It seems unhygienic, and you don't know where to put your cutlery. It feels like a club/bar, not a restaurant. The first courses were very good. I chose excellent potato gnocchi with pumpkin. My husband had a good lasagna. Next, a chicken with potatoes, which were very dry and floury. The crostini with tomato and burrata was also delicious. I would have expected the bread to be toasted warm like bruschetta but it was served cold and gave the impression of being a bit stale.

23/08/2025: FABULOUS. Nice place, delicious food, and incredibly kind staff. It almost feels like family. Highly recommended!!!
