Such an authentic place!
A bit hidden, but don't let discourage you.
Delicious food, incredible value, kind service and a local vibe.
Would return and recommend 11/10

We came to this trattoria on purpose from Milan. After reading the reviews, our expectations were very high. The experience, however, exceeded them: very good cured meats, an exceptional trio of first courses, with the truly special bigoli al musto, guanciale, and figs. The lamb with thyme and lemon was fantastic. The staff was very welcoming; we felt right at home. We'll definitely be back as soon as we can. Thanks Ginen!

Dinner with relatives at grandma's couldn't convey the family warmth of Ginen.
It's like going to lunch with old friends.
Phenomenal traditional dishes, no American-style fare, no gourmet bullshit.
Here you eat deliciously and in abundance, drink well, and laugh heartily. There's no better trattoria in Mantua, guaranteed! Low prices and quality like a lunch at a grandmother who wants to pamper you.

A trattoria of the olden days, like few others.
Traditional, well-cooked food and friendly staff.
If you order à la carte, and not with a business lunch, the prices are a little above average without being excessive.
It was a nice discovery.

I read the reviews and, intrigued, went for a meal. It's a small trattoria with well-executed local dishes and a friendly atmosphere. Everything was delicious, but the macaroni with donkey stew was absolutely delicious...not to mention the desserts. We'll definitely be back.

We braved the fog to arrive here, drawn by the menu and the rustic feel. We found what we were looking for: a true Mantuan restaurant. It's a shame we weren't hungry enough to try more dishes; we were spoiled for choice. I can recommend the donkey stew, the carp fillets, the exceptional persimmon sorbet, and the sbrisolona cake with zabaglione. If we have the chance, we'll be back.

Mantuan tradition on the table.
Da Ginen is a monument to cuisine. From agnolini to snails and sbrisolona, every dish is a tradition.
The rustic courtyard is pure poetry: dining here should be under the patronage of UNESCO.
