Umami RistoBar In Padova

29/06/2025: Very friendly and competent staff. The food was very good.

08/06/2025: It was a good lunch in a pleasant and relaxed environment, but unfortunately it was ruined by a problem that was magnified by the owner. Let's start from the beginning: we pass outside the restaurant and we are intrigued because it is simple and at the same time very well-kept, we see the menu and decide to stop for lunch. The waiter who took the order was of few words and personally I would have appreciated more advice and a little more attention. We chose some dishes that we liked a lot, but almost at the end of the meal we fell out and noticed that the oil that was brought to the table had expired 6 months ago. We discreetly called the waiter and pointed this out to him, he apologized, took the oil away and that was the end of the matter. My companion went in to pay and to report the incident to the owner, he came out and told us with a perplexed face that lunch was offered to us. We stopped to understand why it seemed excessive to us, when the owner comes out and criticizes us from a distance of several tables and honestly made me feel very uncomfortable. We left really disappointed because there was no attitude that showed the desire to confront and apologize for what happened. I am so disappointed because we ate well and I would have liked to return ... I would have preferred to pay because the lunch was worth it. What a shame!
