Il Magnifico In Teverola

I visited this restaurant with friends two years ago. I was impressed by the truly unconventional setting. I was also amazed and satisfied by the abundance of food and the price, which was truly in line with what we consumed and a good value for money. So I considered bringing my wife and kids. You have to tour the restaurant, which is like a sort of underground and upper museum, packed, overflowing, and excessively full of objects. It might seem like a museum, it might even seem like the place of a serial hoarder, but once you've seen it, it's probably not worth it. In fact, most of the other diners preferred to sit outside. While I was satisfied with the food the first time, this time I was truly disappointed. I wanted to choose à la carte, but the waitress recommended the €30 per person menu. According to her, this menu consisted of a sampling of first courses, a meat platter for four with side dishes, and the menu included soft drinks, dessert, and coffee, as explained. Well, the first course samples ended up being a bowl of gnocchi, beans, and sausage, but the portion was tiny when divided among four diners. When the platter arrived, I was surprised by the time it took—it took so little to grill the meat, but from what I remembered, the side dishes were more numerous and plentiful. Instead, the platter contained a bed of salad that was cooked by the steam and heat of the meat, a single portion of French fries, and a small cup of pickled eggplant and broccoli rabe that was gone in three forkfuls. Under the meat was a stale focaccia, only the parts where the hot meat sauce had soaked it were edible. We waited quite a while, and after the verbal promise, we asked for the rest of the menu. The answer was that for dessert and coffee, the menu cost €35 per person! In the end, I can clarify that I spent €120 just for that platter and three Cokes on tap. I paid and we left disappointed. What was once a positive outlook on food has turned out to be a failure.

A uniquely special place! The atmosphere is wonderful. The dishes are rich in imagination, tradition, and above all, abundance.

Dino and his staff are unique, always kind and professional... 10....the food is delicious (5), but the service is absurd. We booked at 9:00 PM and ate the main courses at 11:00 PM....from the spaghetti offered while we waited until our porters arrived, too many hours passed. P.S. Don't trust the parking attendant who hangs around because he's no guarantee of anything. When we left, we found a nice little "gift" on the back door window of our car...ruined our evening and vacation. I repeat: excellent food (except for the limoncello that was too warm), but extremely slow service.

Beautiful place, delicious food and Dino is a fantastic person and good company.

Location: Unique, extravagant, charming, simple, and inimitable Menu: Offers a variety of dishes and specialties to suit every taste and craving. Service: Warm welcome, friendly and always available staff Price: Reasonable for the quality of the products Personal opinion: At Magnifico, it's not just a simple dinner; it's simply an experience. From the warm welcome to the various games offered while you wait, the evening flies by. It's simply a magnificent place.

We celebrated my brother's birthday, nothing to complain about. Superb hospitality. Friendliness 💯 Food 💯

One of a kind, like its setting. The owner is a fantastic character. Good food and varied selection.

I knew Lorenzo Dei Medici, known as the Magnificent, for historical reminiscences. But this evening I had the pleasure of discovering the Magnifico in Teverola, a place you don't know how to define because upon entering you see so many things on the walls that seem like a jumble of random things. Then the owner's personality welcomes you and you realize that everything reflects his eclectic personality and every shape becomes a story. He smiles at you. He welcomes you as if you were an old friend. You wait but he offers you an aperitif, a little gift with courtesy and kindness. The food is varied and excellent. In short, it is an experience that leaves its mark. You enter a unique place and I, along with my daughter, thank from the bottom of my heart the person we immediately fell in love with, the owner. We will see each other again for a new experience.

What can I say, the name Magnifico is perfect, you eat really well, for meat lovers and not only, it is the ideal place. For the order we relied on Dino, the owner, a true gentleman, an exquisite, ironic person, with a unique sympathy, he recommended a mix that was nothing short of spectacular, a delight, not only for the palate but also for the eyes, for how it was presented. A cutting board full of vegetable side dishes and chips were the background, accompanied separately by a velvety ricotta and a delicious cheese sauce, enriched with a smoky note and honey. The meat, in the center, was sublime, appetizing, succulent, cooked to perfection, despite there being various and abundant different cuts selected. A real delicacy! At the end of the dinner, you couldn't miss the tour inside the restaurant where you are catapulted into the past, a parallel world, that you know you have lived and that you find through myriads of souvenirs, a multitude of objects, not thrown there randomly but, carefully placed in order to recreate real cinematic scenes. 60s/70s/80s. Photos, writings, puppets of famous people, cartoons, vinyl records and much more, a real museum with the aim of evoking the atmosphere and spirit of those decades, not to be missed. In short, Il Magnifico is worth discovering, for the culinary art that it puts into its dishes and for the experience that will leave you with a beautiful memory and certainly amazed. 😊

Abbiamo mangiato molto bene come sempre, Dino è una garanzia. La carne era buonissima, ed anche il rotolo e gli antipasti. Super consigliato per passare una bella serata in compagnia
