Tartare18 In Padova

02/05/2025: A small, fine restaurant with a very special charm. The waiter is also the grill master – and does so with real passion. Everything was excellently prepared, the taste was exceptionally good and the quality of the food was really high. We felt completely at home - also thanks to the very friendly and courteous service. You can feel that everything is cooked and served here with love. For this quality the price is absolutely fair. A clear recommendation!

29/04/2025: The meat was really good, however the service made me feel extremely uncomfortable. As there was no wine list, I was forced to rely on the advice of the owner, who - despite my specific requests - insisted on serving me the very wine I had asked to avoid. Plus, their insistence on selling me dishes I didn't want made the experience even more unpleasant. I found myself forced several times to raise my tone (something I hate doing) to be able to simply order what I wanted. In the end, I bill €150 for a steak (not cut at the moment) and a bottle of wine: I DO NOT DISCUSS THE PRICE, which is relative, but given the methods and the treatment, I felt like I was throwing money out the window. Dear restaurateur, the customer should not be forced, but rather guided with grace and intelligence. If you are shocked by a choice you don't agree with, perhaps you should review your menu or clarify it better. In the end, what is catering if not making those who rely on you spend a couple of peaceful hours? Well, for me, unfortunately, these two hours were anything but peaceful.
