11/03/2025: A dive into the past, an embrace of authenticity. Having lunch at Osteria Cimbriolo is not just a culinary experience, but a journey through time, where every detail tells a story. Crossing the threshold of this restaurant is like entering a suspended world, where the welcome is simple and warm, like that of a family that opens the doors of their home to you, even if it is the first time you have set foot there. Among the rooms, the one that conquers the heart is the entrance hall, with its historic counter and the floor that seems to have retained the breath of a distant era. The other rooms, rustic and welcoming, with large wooden tables, invite sharing and conviviality, like a party among old friends.
The host, with his sincere friendliness, guides the diners with wise advice, transforming the meal into an unforgettable experience. The typical Mantuan cuisine is the undisputed protagonist: a triumph of flavors that starts with the appetizers - culaccia, pancetta and coppa - to arrive at the pumpkin tortelli: an explosion of flavor that leaves you speechless. And then the meats: stuffed pocket, boneless guinea fowl, veal and liver with onions, accompanied by a fragrant and generous Mantuan Lambrusco. A lunch that is not to be forgotten, a journey into the heart of tradition. At Osteria Cimbriolo you return, not only to eat, but to rediscover the pleasure of true hospitality, that tastes like home.
