I migliori ristoranti in Ferrara

31/10/2025: Late October evening. Aperitif and friendly service. Come on, try it. Very nice and...

13/10/2025: Yesterday we stopped in asking for a simple aperitif before heading to the restaurant, only to be met with an annoyed response: "We'll seat you, but if anyone comes for lunch, you have to get up and leave your seat." I understand that it's the eel festival and you're looking for a profit, but with the amount we paid for an aperitif, you could have just as easily not seated the lunch guests. We spent €98 for an aperitif for four people, which was MADNESS, truly shameful. We asked for seafood appetizers to be brought along with drinks, just to sample something. We were expecting a small plate or two at most, just to sample as requested. NOT LUNCH, but instead they brought us one each without even asking our opinion first. They were small plates with anchovies and a little eel for the modest sum of €10 each!!! That's why they brought us one each, obviously... you should know the difference between an aperitif and lunch, but only when it's convenient for you. Afterwards, we had another round (the same as the first), two beers and two Campari Spritzes. The Campari was terribly made, and we were told to make it better the second time, but unfortunately, they brought us even worse. Here too, we had two more small plates of anchovies and eel (which weren't bad, but nothing special), for a total of six small plates, paying €60. Not to mention the two waitresses, who are sisters, who talked rudely and rudely to each other in front of everyone; there are ways and ways, especially in front of customers. Luckily, we went to another restaurant afterwards for a delicious eel risotto, which satisfied us for much less. Never again. If there had been at least some courtesy and kindness, I wouldn't have even written this review out of pity, but in these circumstances, I couldn't help it.

25/08/2025: The best ice cream shop on the beach. Excellent value for money and lots of delicious flavors. Plus, the ice cream maker is very talented and friendly!

22/08/2025: beautiful place, very clean and excellent, friendly and super helpful staff. I was here for a week and this ice cream shop improved my experience. I highly recommend the place if you come here to the Estensi.

01/09/2025: For the little ones, there's a play area to help with long waits. Our two-and-a-half-year-old fell asleep while eating, managing to eat five mushrooms from his pizza piece, at 9:15 PM. We waited two hours for four pizzas. And a €2.50 cover charge for an empty plate was outrageous. Impregnated service. An experience that made us forget the quality.

22/08/2025: we waited over an hour to receive 4 pizzas

20/08/2025: A truly excellent pastry shop and café, definitely worth a visit! The friendliness of the staff is one of the first things that strikes you: always kind, smiling, and helpful, they make every customer feel welcome. The products are of the highest quality, from the freshest pastries to the most elaborate desserts, right down to the always perfectly prepared coffee. Every detail is meticulously crafted, and you can sense the passion for the craft. The prices are decidedly reasonable for the quality offered, which makes the experience even more satisfying. Even when there's a bit of a line—which is quite common given the shop's fame—it's definitely worth the wait: the quality of the products and the positive atmosphere make it worthwhile. Highly recommended! A small tip: fruit should be served cold.

20/08/2025: Very friendly staff Inviting pizzas, but unfortunately, the dough is raw. Same goes for the desserts; they're impressive, but they're nothing special.

04/10/2025: Good coffee, limited selection of pastry. No restroom.

03/10/2025: This is great! Wednesday morning, October 1st, I came in and ordered a yellowtail (€1.50). I ate it at the counter and then asked to use the bathroom (I had to pee). The person at the counter replied: "No, for only €1.50, I can't let you use the bathroom." I'll never go back! What a disappointment!!!

28/06/2025: Noi ci ricordavamo il Portovino alla Massa gran bel posto e si mangiava alla grande. A Ferrara siamo ben lontani da questo livello. Il locale è lo stessa della precedente attività (non hanno neanche cambiato l'insegna). Le ragazze si danno da fare ma si mangia e si beve così così. Tagliata nella media patate riscaldate vino dozzinale. E non si spende poco.

09/05/2025: Serata pessima. Dopo 40 minuti ci portano due dei tre secondi ordinati , peccato che prima avevamo gli antipasti …. Dopo cinque minuti vengono con il terzo secondo …. Rimandato indietro sempre in attesa degli antispasti …. Arrivano gli antipasti , niente di che …. Scarsa qualità.Arrivano i secondi ….. peccato che le costolette scottadito erano secche e bruciate ( come se fossero state riscaldate quelle precedentemente ed erroneamente portate ) …. Rimando indietro il piatto e mi viene rifatto …… non ho altro da dire !!!!

21/05/2025: BAFFINO IS A VERY SOCIABLE AND FUNNY TUSCAN WITH ALL THE RIGHT NAMES

20/05/2025: Excellent value for money. Rustic but well-maintained, clean, and with prompt service. The Tuscan cuisine is very good. A little pricey, but the food is top-quality and meticulously prepared.

30/08/2025: A week ago I went to Bagno Jolly. For four aperitifs, four spaghetti with clams, a liter of wine, two liters of water, three sorbets, and two coffees, we spent €155... The spaghetti was average, good but nothing exceptional... But €22 for spaghetti with clams seems really excessive, considering that in Cervia and Marina Romea the same dish with more clams costs €16... I can't explain such a big difference...

16/08/2025: I was at this place yesterday. We rented sun loungers and an umbrella on the beach for 20 euros. Everything was fine. Then we went to lunch. It was truly awful. We sat in the bar area with two unset tables and dirty ashtrays. No problem for us. We had tagliolini, prosciutto with melon, and a container of chips. Three colas and two beers, and they charged me 78.50 euros. Ridiculous price. I was shocked by the price and went to check the receipt. They added 10% to everything. And to my surprise, they charged an extra 10 euros for table setting and service. Ridiculous!!!! The owner thought this was normal for tourists. I'm sure locals are treated fairly. As a result, we spent the rest of the afternoon buying drinks at the Bagno Onda Blu restaurant next door and went to the beach the next day and had a delicious meal at a reasonable price. Oh yes, the salmon at Jolly Bagno that was mixed with the tagliolini wasn't pink or orange, but dark brown. I didn't eat it. Never again at Jolly Bagno! Be careful with your money and check your bill carefully.

20/09/2025: Let's hope it was a bad night. The waiter was absent and in a hurry, the skewer was unremarkable, and the burger had a cutlet that felt like a shoe sole.

07/09/2025: Went last night, half an hour to order, an hour to eat a large salad and mostly with undercooked chicken......and the people next to us waited an hour and a half for the grill.......I don't recommend it

08/11/2025: Years ago, it was a great place to meet for a meal, but these days I only see pre-made food that you can taste not only by its texture but also by its appearance! The pre-made cured meats and piadinas are most likely purchased from the nearest supermarket. I'd give it a ZERO rating! The table service is confusing and slow!

03/08/2025: The pizza was very, very poor. The dough was so soft you couldn't even pick it up. We also had an appetizer, but I'd say it wasn't good at all. The wait was incredibly long; we called the waiters more than once. The atmosphere was very noisy due to the cafe next door. Not recommended.

14/11/2025: inedible piadina, almost raw meat, no service, dirty environment

05/10/2025: One star is too many. My name is Giuseppina, I'm 72, and I'm not someone who writes reviews easily. But this time I can't keep quiet. Hunger and indignation compel me to share what happened. My 11-year-old grandson Antonio had just returned from NINE hours of practice and a basketball game. Nine hours! A sporty boy, sweaty, hungry, with only one light in his eyes: that of the promised kebab. Like a good grandmother, I told him not to worry because they're "open" 24/7. Ah, naivety. At 11:30 PM I picked up the phone, confident I'd hear a kind voice answer: "Hello, Kebab, go ahead!" But instead? Nothing. Silence. I tried again. Still nothing. After five calls, I thought maybe they were busy. By the seventh, I began to think they'd disappeared. At 11:45 PM, my patience was at an end. I put on my scarf and my combat slippers and left. I got there... shutter down. Dark place. Not even a sign saying "We'll be right back." Open 24/7, they said. Maybe they meant "24/7... but only in your dreams." Antonio, poor boy, sitting on the couch with a completely empty stomach, looked at me with teary eyes and said, "Grandma, weren't they open all night?" And I, heartbroken, simply replied, "Oh, my love... not everyone keeps their promises." In the end, we had dinner with two slices of toast and a little plum jam, while the scent of the kebab that wasn't there lingered in our imagination. Antonio now associates the word kebab with betrayal and melancholy. Shame.

04/05/2025: The atmosphere of the medieval tavern will definitely get you like we did. I believe that if I wasn't driving, the wine tasting would have been great too. The food was very original. Spaghetti al dente, which was great. On hot days, everything feels like an oasis. We enjoyed it very much.

20/04/2025: I ordered pasta with raw shrimp and it was completely tasteless.

13/12/2025: The place has potential but the staff inside is surly, serious, sullen and rude and I won't be returning... breakfast at the bar should be a pleasure... we're just not there yet.

01/12/2025: Good pastries, the single portions are delicious. A great way to try multiple flavors at once. Recommendations: Tenerina, chocolate and salted caramel, and cheesecake. The staff needs a complete overhaul. The girls at the cash register look askance at you, and every request becomes overwhelming. They make you lose the desire to order.

28/12/2025: Average bar. Convenient location. But it could have been a little better.

07/12/2025: Two stars mainly for the location. Worst Americano I've ever tasted...the quality/price ratio needs reconsidering. I won't be back... When I asked what specifically they used to make the Americano, I was told "it's an Americano." The color and flavor are anything but Americano.
