Trattoria la Torre In Mezzane di sotto

Beautiful environment and excellent food

The place is very nice, the manager nice and friendly. The food was really excellent, without exaggerating the price. The choice of wines focuses on local production, with excellent results judging from the Valpolicella bottles we chose. We will definitely return.

Our dinner at La Torre, in the cellar of a 13th century church, was excellent. It has great atmosphere due to its historic location with lots of exposed stone walls and a curved ceiling of handmade bricks. The manager, Massimiliano is a true hospitality professional, making everyone feel at home. A clever starter of local prosciutto was served with what looked to be a whole truffle but was really mozzarella rolled in a crust of truffle dust - delicious and fun! I had my first ever plate of bigoli (thick local spaghetti) with a duck ragu, which was perfect with Valpolicella ripasso. My husband’s poached egg in aged cheese sauce with crisp guanciale made him very happy too. Caramelised pineapple flambéed with Grand Marnier may not be traditional, but it was a deliciously light finish to the meal with a glass of an interesting olive amaro. The restaurant is owned by Redoro who produce olive oil and wine, so the wine list and service are impressive too.

This is one of those places where you return because you like it, from the welcome, to the bread with the oil served, to the dishes, to the wines, not to mention the room: marvelous! Mention of merit for the homemade tortelloni with braised beef on Monte Veronese cream and Amarone della Valpolicella reduction: sensational. In short, it's worth a detour to pass through here, regardless of where you are going more or less in the area...

We had dinner two evenings in a row in this splendid trattoria: what can I say... very high quality food, very kind and friendly staff. We had never been here and we felt at home...thanks for everything and see you for sure on the next trip over there.

excellent food. Super amarone risotto. very welcoming and familiar environment, also thanks to the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Massimiliano conducts table service impeccably

We have just left the restaurant, it was not just a simple dinner but an experience. Very friendly and super attentive to detail dining room staff, a warm and welcoming environment that goes perfectly with the proposed menu and last but not least, the quality and refinement of the raw materials used in the dishes which translate into well-balanced and exquisite dishes. Super recommended!

We had lunch at this restaurant for a baptism and everything was excellent. The food was of extraordinary quality, prepared with great care. The impeccable service made the experience even more pleasant. Special thanks to Fabio, very capable and competent, who welcomed us with professionalism and attention (also accompanying us with a few laughs). Highly recommended!

Fantastic, very, very good food, unique ambience and a top waiter!

Really a great restaurant. Everything perfect.
