La Compagnia In Ferrara

We had a great time. Excellent food and a lovely atmosphere. The service was truly exceptional and friendly! 🙂

Excellent food and friendly staff, characteristic and welcoming atmosphere, a little small

A delightful evening with Sergio on guitar, Federica cooking, and Frisco serving. The food was just the way we like it: simple but delicious, just right (and for me, that's a great compliment). It brought a tear to my eye when Sergio sang Pino Daniele. We'll be back.

In a central square in Ferrara, a short distance from the Estense Castle, the restaurant with about 30 seats is rectangular in shape, on the long side on the left as you enter there is a counter and then a classic sideboard with a display case, in front of the sideboard there are dark walnut colored tables and chairs, predominant throughout the restaurant, a ceiling with beams of the same color and low lighting with jazz music in the background (at least on the day of my visit). Among the appetizers, between 14 and 16 €, in addition to various local cured meats including the “Zia ferrarese” seared and served with Fuji apple and superbly sweet and sour balsamic vinegar glaze, also a Vicenza-style cod with polenta and a Fassona meat tartare with quail yolk and mayonnaise. A special mention, among the first courses (also between 14 and 16€), goes to the cappellacci with Ferrarese violin squash, the sweetest of the squashes, which pairs magnificently with the cappellacci pasta in a pleasantly dense whole. In addition to the cappellacci, there are also strozzapreti always with violin squash, gnocchetti with aubergines, cherry tomatoes and salted ricotta as well as spaghetti alla chitarra with lime prawns and pumpkin seeds. The second courses include, in addition to sirloin steak of Scottona and pork ribs, grilled prawns and a special "mixed vegetable garden with grilled polenta and cheese fondue". Appropriately, the fondue and polenta compensate for the bitterness of the vegetables which are served slightly seared. The prices of the second courses range between 18€ for the mixed vegetables and 23€ for the Scottona and prawns. Surprise desserts (all at 7€). The wine list is not particularly varied but reasonably priced. Attentive service.

Really very good food and special service (Frisco number 1)

Very good food and friendly manager

Excellent Ferrarese cuisine, good and abundant dishes, kind and very helpful managers. Must try absolutely

It's rare to be treated so warmly. ❤ Highly recommended! The food is amazing and everything is just perfect, and all at a fair price.

Siamo stati a cena presso l’osteria La Compagnia una sera di fine aprile e l’esperienza si è rivelata piacevole sia per l’ambiente caldo ed accogliente e il personale molto simpatico, oltre che per la cucina tipica ben eseguita che viene proposta. Personalmente ho molto apprezzato il flan di zucca e l’assaggio dei cappellacci al ragù e degli strozzapreti. Servizio molto efficiente e tempi di attesa adeguati tra una portata e l’altra. Il conto mi è sembrato onesto. Locale consigliato per una cena tipica e informale.

Pranzo di Pasqua in questo caratteristico ristorante di Ferrara in occasione di una breve vacanza con agenzia da Genova. Accoglienza cordiale e professionale da parte di tutto lo staff con brindisi di benvenuto (simpaticissimo Frisco!). Antipasto con salumi tipici come la famosa zia ferrarese; per mia moglie vegetariana trattamento speciale con un ottimo flan di zucca, fonduta al grana padano e aceto balsamico molto apprezzato. Risotto alla zucca e lasagna ferrarese di ottima fattura. Un buon dessert per finire, vino della casa accettabile e tanta voglia di tornare.
