09/01/2026: We asked our local friends for an authentic Veronese dinner and they brought us to this gem of a restaurant. First, the menu is a fixed price of €26 euros for a first and second course. (Great value!)
For my first dish, I tried the Bigoli al torchio con ragù d’Asino (donkey meat) and for my second dish I had the Bistecca di cavallo alla griglia (horse meat steak). I didn’t have any issue with the types of meat and if I hadn’t known, I wouldn’t have suspected that the meats were anything other than a delicious beef. We had a fantastic vino bianchi with our meals and a Recioto della Valpolicella (dessert wine) with biscottis. Highly recommend the Sfogliatine con crema all’arancia Salame di cioccolato and
Semifreddo di Giulietta (nocciola) con salsa al cioccolato for dessert. These two desserts were amazing.
This was absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the best eat meals we have had on our trip to Italy.
08/01/2026: A truly excellent dinner at this osteria in the center of Verona. From start to finish, it was a very positive experience: excellent food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a warm, pleasant atmosphere.
A great strength is undoubtedly the staff: everyone is extremely kind, professional, and attentive, with prompt but never rushed service. The dishes arrived in perfect time, which I greatly appreciated.
I started with bigoli with donkey ragù, which I had never tried: a fantastic discovery, truly flavorful and well-prepared. For my second course, I had horse steak with baked potatoes: perhaps not the most memorable dish of the evening, but still delicious and well-received. I then tried my fiancée's dish, beef stew in Amarone with polenta, and it was simply exceptional, one of those dishes that stays with you forever.
The glasses of wine were also excellent, truly high-quality and highly recommended. The prices are fair and absolutely in line with what's on offer.
A truly worthwhile place, and one I highly recommend to anyone visiting Verona looking for an excellent osteria for dinner. We'll definitely be back! 🍷🍽️
