Tavernetta Paolo e Francesca In Gradara

Excellent value for money, excellent food. Recommended! I had lunch here a few days ago with my daughter. We ordered a fillet steak, a vegetable platter with focaccia, and two bottles of still water. €52 was well spent. I should point out that, if desired, the fillet steak (which on the menu is marked with a mixed side dish) can be ordered with a simple side of fries for those who don't like vegetables (in this case, my daughter). I really appreciated it. After a short wait, our dishes arrived. The timing was right, and the portions were generous. The fillet steak was exquisite: perfectly cooked (we had requested medium), with excellent flavor, as was the quality of the meat. It melted in your mouth. The vegetable platter included raw and variously cooked vegetables, including battered zucchini flowers, a tart, and various gratinated vegetables. The staff was friendly, helpful, and unobtrusive. The restaurant has both an indoor and outdoor seating area. Location with a view of the Gradara fortress. This restaurant amazed me... 5 stars well deserved.

The tavern is immersed in the characteristic village of Gradara, the food is excellent, we had lunch outside... pleasant and very relaxing... definitely worth returning!

Excellent dinner of typical local dishes! Friendly service and a beautiful location, right under the castle! Recommended!

The Malatestiani paccheri (with ragù, beef meatballs, and aromatic herbs) were excellent. The ravioli with fossa cheese fondue were also delicious, as was the roasted rabbit with various sides. The service was prompt and very professional. As for the bill (which I've attached), you be the judge.

For not being repetitive, good cuisine 100% recommended

We had a wonderful meal here with a group of six. The service was friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced! The restaurant's ambiance was also very nice. We sat outside on the terrace.

Very good, very nice, very kind!

We had a very pleasant evening. Great service, classic local dishes (many vegetarian options).

Called for lunch without a reservation and was greeted warmly and allocated a lovely al fresco table. Service was friendly and helpful throughout. The menu is quite rustic and meaty, dishes simply presented but tasty enough. Good value re both food and wine, and a charming location on the doorstep of the castle.

Dopo una giornata entusiasmante alla Festa degli Aquiloni a Cervia, con la mia famiglia, abbiamo deciso di fermarci a cenare al ristorante Paolo e Francesca a Gradara, e non avremmo potuto fare scelta migliore! Il ristorante è situato in pieno centro di Gradara, un posto davvero affascinante. Abbiamo cenato all’aperto, immersi nell’atmosfera tranquilla e suggestiva del borgo, con il castello che ci faceva da cornice. L’ambiente è accogliente, con una atmosfera calda e familiare, che ci ha fatto subito sentire a nostro agio. Per quanto riguarda il cibo, la qualità delle materie prime è eccezionale: i piatti sono semplici, ma ricchi di sapore. La grigliata mista era perfetta, con carne saporita e cotta esattamente come richiesto, mentre il filetto al sale e rosmarino e la tagliata alla griglia erano semplicemente deliziosi, con una grigliatura perfetta che esaltava i sapori della carne esprimendone la qualità degli ingredienti. Il servizio è stato un altro punto forte: il personale è stato gentilissimo, disponibile e sempre pronto a darci ottimi consigli, sia sui piatti che sul vino da abbinare. Ci siamo sentiti davvero coccolati. Dopo una giornata piena di colori e divertimento alla festa degli aquiloni, cenare in un posto così tranquillo e gustoso è stato il finale perfetto. Se siete a Gradara, Noi ci torneremo sicuramente! Se siete a Gradara, non perdetevi questa piccola gemma! questo ristorante è assolutamente da provare. Torneremo sicuramente.
