I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina mantovana in Mantova

21/03/2026: My wife and I had a unique culinary experience, guided by the wisdom of Chef Matteo and the impeccable dining room staff! An unforgettable dinner!

21/03/2026: What an absolutely incredible experience at Ristorante L'Ambasciata - about 50 mins away from Modena, we were recommended this hidden gem by a friend of ours - incredible decor and atmosphere, and Mirco and his team took incredible care of us. We had their signature lobster and bean soup for entree, shared an amazing shellfish bisque risotto w/ red prawns, and then the whole duck for main - wonderful experience and highly, highly recommend. We are already arranging to return with a group of friends.

19/04/2026: I don't know what to say. The staff were incredibly friendly, the dishes were exquisite, the food was clean, and the selection was excellent. In short, going there only once definitely leaves a lasting impression. I ate: the snails, which I enjoyed, despite being reluctant to try the main ingredient; the French onion soup (the best dish in the world, executed masterfully); the beef in olive oil (to rival the best restaurants in Brescia); and the express tiramisu (controversial note: the cheesecake I wanted wasn't there!). Everything was excellent. I'll be back specifically for the trio of first courses, which should be their signature dish. I recommend everyone try it.

19/04/2026: This is the second time we've had lunch at this restaurant, and I must confirm the same quality, kindness, and pleasantness as the first time.

04/04/2026: Informal restaurant, very good food but a bit too much. Friendly, kind, and attentive staff. Very positive experience!!

24/03/2026: Everything was good, and the portions were generous, especially the starters. The place needs updating.

10/04/2026: Excellent 5-course menu. A very original tiramisu of potato and cod mousse, tataki, ricciola tartare, spaghetti nero with scallops. Dessert: hazelnut semifreddo and caramel fondant. Accompanied by a 100% Pinot Meunier sparkling wine from a small producer. Very generous portions. We highly recommend it.

06/04/2026: In my opinion, personal opinion, kind and everything, but prices too, too, high, very long wait compared to the small clientele, the dishes may be good, but not to my taste, too elaborate

22/03/2026: An experience. Culinary and more. A true osteria, where the host and the chef are NOT the same person. Like any great team, the result is achieved together, each doing their part and allowing the other to do the same, with mutual respect and trust. The chef is known through dishes built on excellent ingredients (with an abundance of Slow Food Presidia) and a great attention to translation, reinterpretation, and enjoyment. Because if you don't enjoy yourself, why bother eating out?! The host is incredibly knowledgeable about beers, wines, and cheeses. Don't be afraid to ask for advice and explanations; instead, be willing to take the time to listen, because when passion, expertise, and an innate charm come together, you can't do anything else :) Finally, the prices are absolutely reasonable. And there's also the possibility of finding solutions that are definitely affordable for everyone... You can't always have two courses with a cheese cart and dessert! Although here it would be worth it...

10/03/2026: High-quality products... cooked well and with so much passion. The fried gnocchi are exquisite...the stracotto and pumpkin-filled tortelli in three variations are also highly recommended...exceptional. We concluded the dinner with a selection of cheeses and mustards, all accompanied by a wonderful Giuseppe (the manager)...everyone's cousin (when you pay)....good expireance.

12/04/2026: Excellent, high-quality traditional dishes

02/04/2026: Typicality, quality, courtesy in a very nice and welcoming place

01/05/2026: If there were fifty stars, I'd give it a hundred. After all, there's no point in rating the emotion. As a celiac, I felt pampered, free to choose, and above all satisfied by a flawless meal. I ate a lot and well in a down-to-earth place that immediately put me at ease. An excuse to return to the Mantua area as soon as possible!

29/04/2026: We had lunch on the veranda on a very nice day (but the veranda is well-sheltered). The food was good (we are gluten-free friends), the portions were adequate, and the prices were absolutely reasonable. We'll be back!

06/04/2026: The food was sublime as always, well done Matteo

30/03/2026: Lunch with quality food and fine dining presentation. Very satisfied. The welcome and farewell service was a little rough, but the table service was good.

13/04/2026: Excellent restaurant, very good service and dishes

09/03/2026: The quality of the Mantuan peasant tradition of the cuisine offered has been confirmed over time.

02/05/2026: A very charming tavern, with very good traditional food; extremely generous portions.

02/05/2026: Particular characteristic tavern... traditional Mantuan food with hints of non-native but appreciated Italian delicacies... pay attention to the dishes... they are very abundant... the donkey stew is top notch

06/04/2026: A huge disappointment. We returned with our family full of anticipation to try the new management, after so many wonderful culinary experiences with the Martini family. The setting was expertly renovated, and the service was consistently excellent. When we tasted the new management's dishes, we were initially drawn to the presentation but shocked by the lack of quality in taste and interpretation of some dishes. The risotto alla pilota was overcooked and flavorless, the snails had little flavor, and the seafood tagliolini didn't arouse any emotion. The desserts deserve special mention, as they were definitely a cut above. The table service and the staff's professionalism were excellent. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed and almost "betrayed" by a restaurant that over the years has always provided us with pleasant moments and great cuisine. The quality/price ratio was insufficient. A real shame.

29/03/2026: The wild boar skewers exceeded all my expectations, absolutely sublime on the palate.

15/04/2026: EXCEPTIONAL! Excellent service from Rafael, who welcomed us warmly!

13/04/2026: It's become a habit to dine here every now and then, to rediscover the flavors and aromas of ancient Mantuan cuisine. The dishes are well-prepared, starting with the pike in sauce, a unique and rare dish to find in these parts. The first courses are all fabulous, and the second courses are traditional. The wine cellar offers a good selection, and the staff is friendly and helpful. These are places that should never disappear.

21/04/2026: We were greeted with kindness and professionalism. Excellent food, quiet atmosphere. Recommended!

13/04/2026: Comfortable atmosphere, super friendly staff, and very attentive to the customer, even my dog. Excellent food (superlative Mantuan risotto). Reasonable price. I recommend it.

13/04/2026: I went to a wedding anniversary lunch: the place was warm and welcoming, the dishes were carefully prepared with quality ingredients. Impeccable service. Congratulations!

22/03/2026: A couple runs this restaurant in a renovated 200-year-old building. It has a swimming pool, and the meat dishes are excellent in both taste and service. The atmosphere in the rooms is superb. It's quiet. Be careful on the national highway outside town, and I recommend going by car if possible. I want to go again.

13/03/2026: We tried the traditional cured meats, tortelli, bigoli, and the ever-present sbrisolona at this traditional and welcoming osteria. The service was good. We highly recommend it!

11/03/2026: I passed by without knowing it. A place for locals. Delicious horse stew.
