One Saturday in January, we had lunch at Ostaria Nova in Este, located slightly outside the centre, with convenient parking nearby. The restaurant is accessed via a veranda, used in summer to host outdoor tables. The interior is welcoming and has a family atmosphere, with wooden tables set with paper placemats and the essentials. The place is small, so booking is recommended.
The menu includes a maximum of fifteen traditional local dishes. We enjoyed some pappardelle with musso creamed with Parmigiano Reggiano: the fresh homemade pasta was perfectly blended and the donkey meat, very tender and cooked to perfection, completed the dish with a balanced flavour. As a second course, we chose the pork cheek braised in red wine with grilled polenta: the meat was extraordinarily soft and the flavor surprising, a perfect balance between meat and spices.
The restaurant offers a wide selection of wines and the service was quick, with the staff courteous and knowledgeable. To conclude, we let ourselves be tempted by apple fritters and a very particular and tasty tiramisu served by the slice.
If you find yourself in Este, Ostaria Nova is a highly recommended place for those who want to savor excellent dishes in a truly familiar environment.

Simple place, but very welcoming and well-kept. The service is great and the staff are really friendly and attentive to detail. It is the ideal place to eat typical Venetian dishes, with excellent home-made cuisine that includes homemade pasta, desserts and bread (served hot). Advised!!

In a little-frequented side street there is Osteria Nuova, hidden but as soon as you enter it has a homely atmosphere, not many tables which makes it more familiar. A
menu with local foods (bigoli with duck ragù which I recommend) but also innovative, but tried the chicory cooked with burrata and anchovies which I highly recommend. Not least the choice of simple but excellent foods. If you are in Este I recommend the stop.

Excellent cuisine, place in need of improvement, excessively high prices (including wine). Sin!

We went to this tavern in the summer on a Monday evening and really enjoyed the fish-based dishes (Venetian trio, spaghetti with anchovies and lemon and seafood salad). We returned on a Sunday for lunch in autumn and discovered that the Sunday menu was smaller than the one on the website, and we were a little disappointed because it hadn't been reported to us on the phone anyway. Furthermore, we saw a poor selection of vegetarian dishes (pumpkin in saor as a starter and a first course based on gorgonzola and radicchio). When asked for alternatives, we were offered what we eventually discovered to be a plate of 4 side dishes costing €20, which in my opinion was a little too expensive. Furthermore, we were offered a wine without telling us the price, which was also discovered during the payment phase. The other two sore points: they don't have beer because according to them it doesn't go in winter and the dessert service (brought from a pastry shop) at the price of €1.50 per person.
Positive notes: the dishes are good and tasty, and the quantities are generous, in line with the prices.
