Ristorante Europa In Fontanellato

Just outside the center of Fontanellato. Truly typical local cuisine. The tagliolini with tosone and the maltagliati with salami paste are fantastic.

We were thrilled. The food was excellent, the service superb, and everyone was very friendly. It's perfectly located right next to the campervan site. We would definitely go back.

Excellent place. Really fast and punctual service. The owner is a wonderful person who made us feel at home. I highly recommend it.

It was the food that suited my taste the best out of everything I ate in Italy and Switzerland.

I stopped for a business lunch (€13.⁰⁰) at midday. The restaurant is very busy, but they seated me within minutes. The risotto was good, and the mortadella with pistachios was excellent. There's convenient parking nearby.

A wonderful restaurant away from the hustle and bustle, a simple and welcoming location. The menu features the great classics of Emilian cuisine (torta fritta and tortelli are top-notch) with quality products at fair prices. Friendly and fast service. I especially thank the owner for his hospitality and for the passion he has for his restaurant.

We arrived from the mountains of Bergamo, "Colli di San Fermo," 1100 meters above sea level, to visit the beautiful Fontanellato in a 43-year-old camper van named "scassino" (but inside it feels like Cartago in 2026 ;-) ). In the evening, hungry, we asked the locals for help, and they recommended this restaurant. We were amazed, it felt just like being by the sea: delicious spaghetti with clams, made with the freshest clams, crispy and dry fried fish, and a fish appetizer that smelled of freshly caught seafood. The pizza was enormous, made with two dough balls, crispy, flavorful, and very well cooked. Another noteworthy detail was a very mysterious character who was wandering among the tables, thin, tall, and very curious to know how we were getting on. We kept telling him that everything was delicious and that not only had the beautiful fortress amazed us, but also this welcoming, family-friendly restaurant with truly jaw-dropping cuisine! To our surprise, we found the curious and very intuitive guy, with a New Dandy style reminiscent of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's character (if he'd had a pipe), at the cash register!?! In the end, it was the owner :-), who, with immense pleasure and in a friendly and welcoming spirit, showed us an already honest bill, giving us an additional discount for having arrived safe and sound from 1100m to Fontanellato in a patched-up 1982 Ford Transit camper Pilote, less than 5m long. Thank you so much, Mr. Sherlock, we will remember you and all the welcoming and kind staff. Until the next "burglary" adventure! Filippo and Stefy ;-) (the one with the gray hair in the hat ;-) ) See you soon!

SUPER PIZZA - CONGRATULATIONS - I RECOMMEND THE EUROPA PIZZA, REALLY EXCELLENT

The pizza was really good, with quality ingredients! And the food we ate looked and smelled great, too. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the prices were below average. Plus, if you parked in the nearby camper area, they'll give you an additional 10% discount! Yeah, we had a great time!

Bread, Ragù Pasta, Salad, and Pork Steak Delicious The staff are so friendly 🤗 The meal took a long time (serving is slow)
