I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Ferrara

22/06/2025: We stopped to eat after a bike ride on the Argine degli Angeli. Excellent fish of good quality, fast and precise service.

05/06/2025: The Quietovivere (in name and in fact) serves as both a restaurant and accommodation for a holiday in the Comacchio Valley. A strategic position, immersed in nature, with rooms overlooking the lagoon where, for a couple of years, flamingos have been stationed, which can be observed from the porch in front of the rooms. The rooms are not very large but well organized and clean. Certainly, it is a structure more suitable for those seeking contact with nature, however comfortable. The restaurant is also of a high level (I recommend booking because there are not many seats), which offers local cuisine based on local products, where the risotto with Go and grilled eel are dishes that remain in the memory.

25/06/2025: In a central square in Ferrara, a short distance from the Estense Castle, the restaurant with about 30 seats is rectangular in shape, on the long side on the left as you enter there is a counter and then a classic sideboard with a display case, in front of the sideboard there are dark walnut colored tables and chairs, predominant throughout the restaurant, a ceiling with beams of the same color and low lighting with jazz music in the background (at least on the day of my visit). Among the appetizers, between 14 and 16 €, in addition to various local cured meats including the “Zia ferrarese” seared and served with Fuji apple and superbly sweet and sour balsamic vinegar glaze, also a Vicenza-style cod with polenta and a Fassona meat tartare with quail yolk and mayonnaise. A special mention, among the first courses (also between 14 and 16€), goes to the cappellacci with Ferrarese violin squash, the sweetest of the squashes, which pairs magnificently with the cappellacci pasta in a pleasantly dense whole. In addition to the cappellacci, there are also strozzapreti always with violin squash, gnocchetti with aubergines, cherry tomatoes and salted ricotta as well as spaghetti alla chitarra with lime prawns and pumpkin seeds. The second courses include, in addition to sirloin steak of Scottona and pork ribs, grilled prawns and a special "mixed vegetable garden with grilled polenta and cheese fondue". Appropriately, the fondue and polenta compensate for the bitterness of the vegetables which are served slightly seared. The prices of the second courses range between 18€ for the mixed vegetables and 23€ for the Scottona and prawns. Surprise desserts (all at 7€). The wine list is not particularly varied but reasonably priced. Attentive service.

20/06/2025: Really very good food and special service (Frisco number 1)

22/05/2025: Very positive experience. I purchased the personalized consultation and tried for the first time to color my hair myself with the dye herbs, following the various instructions given by Rozalia based on the needs I had. Everything went well. Excellent color according to expectations, hair strengthened and more voluminous, gray hair covered. I also tried the shampoo conditioner, katira and kapoor glow, all excellent products. If you then take into consideration that it is a small company I feel like giving my compliments to Rozalia who follows everything with competence, love and passion.

12/05/2025: Ottimo il servizio. Personale attento scrupoloso gentile e cortese. Ottimi piatti. Ormai ogni volta che passiamo da Ferrara è un punto di riferimento importante. Ne approfittiamo anche per acquistare prodotti tipici di Ferrara.

13/07/2025: Excellent food, owner from Taranto. And you feel at home. Very low prices, self-service.

10/06/2025: Self-service Pizzeria. You order pizza or puccia directly from the pizza chef, meanwhile you get cutlery, a placemat, a glass and drinks from the fridge, you sit at a table and you are called to get your pizza or puccia or salad directly from the pizza chef. He recommended a puccia with burrata, which I think is very good! I recommend it for a quick lunch!

10/07/2025: Thin pizza, but I remedied it with the double dough, tigelle inside the chicken-shaped container, very nice and delicious

07/07/2025: Exceptional pizza, very digestible and tasty!!!!

23/06/2025: The tables outside are in a heavenly setting. The mosquitoes arrive after 9:00 pm, don't wear white, a resident told me. In fact, the first night they arrived on time, the inn has mosquito spray, just ask. The second night we didn't see them, not even after 9:00 pm, we had put the spray on much earlier. Particular attention to the customer and his needs and allergies. Cover charge: 3.00 euros Coffee: free

17/06/2025: You can only write a positive review for this place if you don't know any other places where you can eat really well.....but that's another story. My experience: a table booked indoors the day before for 4 people, and once we arrived they told us that there was a problem and that the only available tables were those outside.....here the nightmare begins; we sat outside and for the whole evening between mosquito bites and midges on the pizza we really had a lot of fun, furthermore the pizza was very commercial (nothing special, like the frozen one from the supermarket) and the prices really high in relation to the service/treatment, also because the waiters were practically non-existent and when they came to listen to us (after repeated calls and pretending not to see us), they looked at us with disgusted faces (have you ever seen 4 girls spending an evening together?). In short, an evening to forget, I'm sorry to leave a negative note, but I hope it serves as constructive criticism in order to improve the treatment towards future customers.

10/06/2025: Good pizza...place right on Piazza Repubblica, normal prices...I recommend it!

29/05/2025: The best fritto misto in the province. In a pizzeria? Yes! Try it and believe it.

08/07/2025: The only downside is that it is whole (not cut)

30/06/2025: Very, very good takeaway pizzas, at more than attractive prices. I recommend without hesitation 👍

27/05/2025: There can only be 5 stars. Super delicious ice cream, really creamy. The lady was so friendly and kind to our daughter. Despite the off-season, there was a large selection of flavors. A pistachio flavor with real chunks – so delicious 👍 We definitely want to go back!

26/05/2025: Good coffee. Good pastry. Good prices. Opens early too - was my go-to in the mornings when on campsite.

13/05/2025: Very fresh products and very friendly staff

12/05/2025: Dear angry for a questionably average ice cream

13/07/2025: Excellent value for money. Exceptional dishes with a well-stocked wine list, including by the glass. Friendly and helpful staff, and a truly distinctive venue in a historic building.

11/06/2025: A surprise in a small town! I recommend it.

10/06/2025: What can I say, do you want a good sandwich? Come in and let yourself be tempted. Courtesy, kindness, menu for all tastes. Small internal garden, very cute. It's nice. Recommended.

02/06/2025: Back from a tournament. Nice clean place, very friendly managers. The schiacciata is amazing. Well done, keep it up. The group from Friuli

14/05/2025: Very good pizza, can also be enjoyed on site as well as take-out and home delivery.

04/05/2025: A bit spartan place but not bad pleasant pizza cooked well compliments

29/05/2025: Returned after some time to "pamper" my wife, in my opinion he lost the charm of a "family" relationship by looking for gourmet dishes. I got up not full ... too bad.

28/05/2025: Siamo stati in questo ristorante per festeggiare il nostro anniversario e non potevamo fare scelta migliore. L’atmosfera è accogliente e il personale gentile e attento, ma il vero protagonista è stato il cibo. Abbiamo iniziato con un delizioso antipasto di cozze: freschissime, saporite e cucinate alla perfezione. Come primo abbiamo scelto i paccheri con le canocchie, un piatto spettacolare che consiglio vivamente: il sapore del mare in ogni boccone, con una pasta cotta al punto giusto e un sugo ricco e ben bilanciato. È stata un’esperienza davvero piacevole sotto ogni punto di vista. Torneremo sicuramente!

20/07/2025: excellent fish dishes. Nice place, the food is good and the staff is friendly and helpful. The outdoor setting is also beautiful. Ample parking. It's a place I recommend.

18/07/2025: The owner is very friendly, and the waiters are quick and friendly. The place is clean, but above all, the food is tasty and plentiful. I usually go here for lunch; I order a first course, sparkling water, and coffee.
