I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Ferrara

09/01/2026: Tasty, well-prepared traditional dishes, served in a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. Ideal for relaxing lunches and dinners.

04/01/2026: This very chic little restaurant was recommended to us, aesthetically unique and refined. We had a wonderful dinner: the raw fish appetizer was presented with the care and passion of a chef who knows what he's doing. The off-menu first course was FABULOUS, with truly thoughtful aromas and combinations. Then I said to myself, "Now a dessert would be perfect, but I'm having a hard time surprising myself after this crescendo of flavors and aromas..." Even though I was full, I decided to break the rules. The result? A SENSATIONAL dessert! For the service and hospitality, I'd say we're 6 stars! Well done, well done, well done! You deserve so many more satisfied customers like us! We'll definitely be back.

02/03/2026: Arriving for a business dinner, we found ourselves in a phenomenal setting, which made the evening wonderful. Not only is it a pleasant, traditional place, with the option of a table near the kitchen, allowing you to see everything and meet the chef. The wine list and menu are extensive, full of traditional dishes.

19/02/2026: We ate really well; the dishes and ingredients were carefully selected and prepared. The chef is very friendly and knows his stuff when it comes to selecting meats.

27/02/2026: I almost never write reviews, but this time I'm truly happy to do so. It was a wonderful evening! The place is well-kept and welcoming, the staff is extremely kind and attentive. The meat is truly top-quality, tender, and flavorful: the fact that they ask for the desired amount (with a minimum, of course), slice it freshly, and show it to the customer before cooking is just a plus that demonstrates their great customer care. Even though the place was quite busy, the service was impeccable, and the wait times were absolutely right. You can clearly tell that this place is run with love and passion. We'll definitely be back!

23/02/2026: I always love coming back Welcoming atmosphere, fast service, excellent and plentiful food Terry is perfect Giulio is number one

23/03/2026: A wonderful experience. Beyond the quality of the dishes, the staff's sensitivity and passion are evident. At first glance, it might seem like a place that makes you feel uncomfortable, but in reality, the pampering and kind attention truly makes you feel at home. As a celiac, this is worth its weight in gold; the discomfort of having to eat out has completely vanished. Everything was perfect.

15/03/2026: Excellent menu and very kind waiting staff.

19/12/2025: A large cup costs €5, which is reasonable given the good location and the amount of ice cream inside. The ice cream is very good, the place is clean, and the staff are very kind.

09/11/2025: Pumpkin and tenerina ice cream! The perfect combination.

26/01/2026: A sublime lunch, excellent first courses, and special meat. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Prices are reasonable for the top-quality ingredients used. We'll definitely be back.

19/01/2026: We had a great time overall and will definitely return.

31/01/2026: Everything was top notch and tasteful, I'll be back, thank you very much!

18/01/2026: I found it by chance after reading the reviews and looking at the photos of the dishes. This time, let's start with the things I didn't like the most: the lighting in the restaurant was disappointing, with ineffective lights. The space is also a little cramped, but it's manageable. From here on out, only positive things. The menu isn't overwhelming, so you can't get lost. There are 5-6 choices for each course, traditional Ferrara dishes and a few different options, including meat, fish, and vegetarian options. I tried the creamed cod with chickpea cream, pumpkin tortelli, and salami for sauce. Not much to say, the dishes were good and well-prepared (perhaps I would have preferred the ragù for the tortelli to be different: the pieces of meat were large and the sauce a little runny, but that's a minor detail). Special mention for the service! The waiters were kind and attentive, smiling and pleasant, and they also gave us effective advice. Truly excellent. If I were to return to Ferrara, I would definitely return here.

28/02/2026: Creamed cod, baked sea bass, and rosemary ice cream are delicious. Carefully prepared dishes, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service.

25/02/2026: Everything was fantastic, top food, excellent and very friendly service.

03/03/2026: I met up with friends for an aperitif. The wine list is excellent. I've been here several times for dinner, with a meat and fish menu. The young staff is helpful. I highly recommend coming for both an aperitif and dinner.

25/02/2026: Delightful and well-kept place! The food and dishes are very well-prepared and delicious! The staff is young, cheerful, and well-trained! Also great for aperitifs!

04/02/2026: Wonderful place to eat and feel good! I highly recommend it.

20/01/2026: Our favorite dog-loving vacation. Thanks to the "Dog Sport Experience" event, every year we get to spend a vacation in a dream location, where both dogs and children find their space for a fun, relaxing stay with plenty of different spaces to enjoy! See you in June! ❤️

08/03/2026: Excellent pizzas and fantastic desserts, a particular purgatorial atmosphere, worth seeing and trying and even returning to because it's worth it.

21/02/2026: We were there on Valentine's evening, and despite the large number of people, the service was fast and impeccable, the pizza was excellent, and as always, the atmosphere is wonderful!

18/09/2025: Top, Franco and his staff always confirm themselves as the number one piadina on the beaches, and mind you, he speaks a Romagnola!!!

14/09/2025: Over the years I find it has gotten worse and not a little 😭....even the French fries tasted like nothing...I don't go there anymore.

01/03/2026: Welcoming atmosphere, extremely kind, attentive, friendly staff... Excellent food, no need to go into details, everything from starters to desserts was excellent.

16/02/2026: I am very happy to return to this old-fashioned OSTERIA with typical local food, a few varieties of dishes but all very good and tasty, kind and attentive staff who almost pamper the customers... absolutely to try

21/03/2026: This is my second time eating at this restaurant. You can't go wrong with either the meat or the fish; everything is truly delicious. But despite the excellent food, I have to say that the strong point is the welcoming and attentive service from the staff. Regarding the prices, I have to say that the quality/price ratio is also above average. Recommendations: Chitarrine allo scoglio (seafood chitarrine) €25 (huge, enough to feed two) and the millefeuille with berries.

21/03/2026: Very well-maintained and spacious restaurant. The staff are very professional, kind, and attentive to everything. The food is truly delicious. I highly recommend it.

20/02/2026: The pizzas, in my opinion, are made with excellent dough, and in addition to the classics, you can find gourmet options. They also serve first and second courses. The dining room is a bit small, but nice and welcoming, and the service is excellent. Reservations are recommended.

31/01/2026: The seafood pizza was very rich, though a bit bland. The staff was very friendly. The quality/price ratio was good.
