I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina mantovana in Mantova

11/04/2026: A typical Mantuan osteria, with an informal menu, rustic wooden tables, and narrow spaces that evoke the typical conviviality of these places. The cuisine is traditional, featuring all the delicacies of the Gonzaga family. The service is fairly quick but attentive. The final bill is average for the city.

11/04/2026: It was our only certainty from the weekend we organized last Mantua. This osteria is a must-try for those who want to try traditional dishes. We focused on the first courses, all delicious. Special mention for the picon risotto. The atmosphere was peaceful and everyone was very friendly. Recommended!!

04/02/2026: The dishes were really good, made with top-quality ingredients. It's a shame the service was too slow, but it was very courteous.

25/01/2026: A third-generation trattoria, a guarantee of tradition, quality ingredients, and attentive service. I always return with pleasure. 😎

07/02/2026: This historic restaurant isn't particularly striking for its slightly retro decor, but for its delicious cuisine and meticulously prepared dishes. Excellent service, kudos to you. Fast service. Recommended.

02/02/2026: I'm revising my previous review. This is a historic Mantua restaurant. Traditional dishes, but sometimes, in the kitchen, they lose their composure. On the last occasion, for example, we were served a first course that, to call al dente, was simply too much. What's disappointing is not seeing a smile. In other words, there's a lack of "friendliness," and that's a shame: perhaps the customer would appreciate it.

17/04/2026: We didn't have a good experience, a bit presumptuous in our opinion.

13/04/2026: Amazing trattoria. Risotto for 10, roast beef for 10, desserts for 11. Stop by and try this unique experience.

01/05/2026: Excellent outdoor lunch, unacceptable, a beautiful location surrounded by greenery

26/04/2026: A quiet place, a paradise on earth. The owners are kind and welcoming. Excellent cuisine and delicious traditional dishes. Thanks to the owners.

25/04/2026: 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

12/04/2026: 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!

22/11/2025: A simple menu with an excellent selection of traditional first and second courses. The cured meats and desserts are also delicious. For €40, you can enjoy all courses in a casual atmosphere with friendly service. Book well in advance.

12/11/2025: A guarantee of Mantua's gastronomic excellence. You can never go wrong.

27/03/2026: What a pleasant surprise! A family atmosphere, traditional dishes made with high-quality ingredients. Impeccable service. Fair price. Highly recommended.

15/03/2026: It's the first time I've been to this wonderful restaurant, we stopped by chance as today is my birthday

08/04/2026: Welcoming place, congratulations to all the guys!!! We'll gladly return.

05/04/2026: Delicious and huge pizza, good fish.

18/04/2026: Il Leoncino Rosso is a hidden gem in the heart of Mantua's historic center. This small but welcoming restaurant perfectly embodies the soul of traditional Mantuan cuisine. The intimate, family-friendly atmosphere immediately captivates you, making you feel at home. The menu is a triumph of authentic flavors.

18/04/2026: We had lunch, excellent traditional Mantuan dishes at very reasonable prices. The outside is beautiful, under a grand vault.

10/04/2026: I used their online wine shop service. Not only did the owner, Corrado, respond immediately to repeated questions about the products and terms of sale, but they also held a high-value bottle aside for over a month without even a deposit. When it finally arrived, it was perfect, and the shipping was super fast. Courteous and professional, among the best.

21/03/2026: I've dined at this restaurant twice, with family and as a couple. The atmosphere is very refined, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the owners have created a pleasant personal atmosphere. The quality dishes, including traditional Mantuan and Asian cuisine, are top-notch, and the service is truly attentive. Excellent experience.

10/04/2026: I had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant and was truly thrilled. The dishes were simply excellent: the risotto with artichokes and pecorino was creamy, perfectly balanced in flavor, and truly refined. The Fassona beef carpaccio was also of the highest quality, incredibly fresh, and prepared with great care. The attention to the ingredients and the passion in the kitchen are clearly evident. The service was impeccable: the staff were kind, helpful, and professional. A truly pleasant experience in every way. I will definitely return and highly recommend it!

07/04/2026: Unfortunately, I can only give 3 stars, and only for one reason: we tourists didn't know that Amaretto is added as a "spice" to the famous pumpkin pastries. It wasn't mentioned on the menu, nor was it pointed out when we ordered. The children didn't want to eat it, and some of the adults didn't either. The quality was certainly excellent, but I'm disappointed that it wasn't made clear that this gives the filling a very distinctive, sweet flavor. It's simply not for everyone. 04/04/26

09/04/2026: I won't be returning. Paid too much for the food and the truly poor service. There are many better restaurants in Mantua! An important detail: the stairs leading down to the bathroom are terribly steep and narrow, not accessible to everyone.

06/04/2026: Very high expectations, the restaurant recommended by the B&B owner as one of the best in Mantua. It won the show with Bastianich. We were greeted coldly upon arrival; we waited a bit for the table we'd reserved the day before to become available. After a good half hour, the first courses arrived, but one was missing, arriving much later. The tagliolini in white veal ragù was very good, the pumpkin tortelli were good but not exceptional, and the agnoli with butter and sage were average. The problem was the small portions, but that's how it is. We ordered a beef stew, which unfortunately took another hour to arrive (it was good, but by then we'd lost our enthusiasm), and the potatoes never arrived at all. There was a general sense of confusion, and the service was unwelcoming (€4 each) and rushed. Other tables also complained about the delays. The prices were too high for what was on offer. The place is unrealistic, and there's much room for improvement in many areas.

15/04/2026: Excellent food but above all excellent service

12/04/2026: Very welcoming and intimate place Excellent service Top-notch dishes Excellent value for money

07/04/2026: PERFECT Mantua restaurant. EXCELLENT FOOD, WONDERFUL SERVICE, friendly and conversational waiter. BEAUTIFUL ambiance.

22/03/2026: After a long train ride, the Giallozucca restaurant was just what we needed. Service from a friendly, smiling young woman, a welcoming atmosphere, delicious traditional food, and reasonable prices. I recommend looking around for the photographs and artwork hanging there. We'll definitely be back!
