I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Padova

04/12/2025: I went for lunch on Sunday, November 2025. We were warmly welcomed at a table overlooking the terrace and the view of Arcquai. We immediately tried the appetizer with "sublime" local olive oil, followed by two very good first courses with "scarpetta" (a kind of bread)! The second courses concluded with a bang and deliciousness. What can I say? We'll definitely be back! I've already booked to return soon. Thank you all for treating us like family!

03/12/2025: Very nice place, very satisfied with the service... I recommend it to everyone

02/11/2025: I wasn't entirely satisfied with this medieval-style pizzeria. The first thing that bothered me was the music: heavy metal, totally out of place for a place like this. And when the music wasn't playing, radio commercials would come on. A serious restaurant, if it wants to create atmosphere, doesn't simply tune in to any radio station—and above all, it doesn't play commercials to customers who pay to enjoy a pleasant experience. The second thing I didn't like was the owners' attitude. Outside, there's a sign warning that separate receipts are not issued. I can understand that; in a city of students, it can be complicated. But finding the same phrase on the first page of the menu changes everything: from a simple request, it becomes a hostile attitude toward the customer. Browsing the menu, the situation gets worse: it's written in large letters that "additions and modifications to pizzas are charged from €1 to €3"—nothing wrong with that—but immediately afterward, the phrase "please keep extra requests to a minimum" appears, clearly making it clear that the customer isn't the focus. In fact, it almost seems like they're bothering you. It doesn't matter that the table service was courteous and the pizza was actually good: with a premise like that, you're already off on the wrong foot. And the heavy metal music, in a medieval-style restaurant, was truly the straw that broke the camel's back: either turn it off completely, or at least choose something consistent with the ambiance.

30/10/2025: Best pizza we ever had! Very fast service too and the people are nice. :)

13/11/2025: Magnificent location in the hills, good selection of meats and pasta dishes. Too bad you need at least two orders for a barbecue.

26/10/2025: Top notch! Everything was excellent: food, atmosphere, service

06/12/2025: I went here for a birthday party with 15 other people, and everything was excellent, especially for me, who hasn't eaten meat in many years, because I'd never found a restaurant that catered so well to vegetarians. The service was excellent, too.

05/12/2025: Every time I go see my family I have to come eat here! The food is amazing and always paired with the right wine! Can I also add that they serve an exquisite oil to indulge with your dishes? I can honestly say the atmosphere is very elegant and modern great for business meetings as well as romantic dinner and family gatherings. The parking lot is great as well. If I could give more stars ⭐️ I would. The service is always excellent. Thank you

11/12/2025: Anna and Veronica's warmth and friendliness make waiting for the train a familiar and joyful experience. Courtesy and a smile are never lacking!

11/12/2025: Five stars for the courteous service (I ordered a cappuccino) and for the chat with Mr. Franco, a regular at the place.

07/12/2025: Everything was excellent, the staff was friendly and fast. The Venetian-style liver was delicious. Prices were absolutely average. We'll be back when we're in Padua.

26/11/2025: Feels like home 🏡💕 I've been to this place a couple of times and it was truly a delightful discovery! ✨ You can find typical Venetian dishes but also flavors to discover and explore. The icing on the cake are the owners: welcoming, discreet, knowledgeable, and truly friendly! The place speaks for itself: warm, familiar, and elegant all at the same time. Congratulations! We'll see you again very soon 😍

01/12/2025: Business dinner, good food and excellent service.

30/11/2025: Venetian tradition at its finest. The wine list is particularly noteworthy. Refined and sophisticated.

04/10/2025: A bit factory-like but good and efficient, even if it doesn't have a cozy atmosphere!

30/09/2025: Average food. The place has a simple style. The staff is very friendly.

02/12/2025: Cozy restaurant, excellent food, friendly staff, fair price.

25/11/2025: I'd like to point out that this review won't ruin their reputation, but it will ruin my evening: the wait staff, especially the owners, ruined it for me. A real shame, because the food is good. But when the attitude of the person taking your order is so pushy and unwelcoming, the overall experience suffers. Not to mention the bill, which almost feels like they're doing you a favor by accepting the money when asked to pay the bill. A little humility and remembering your role never hurt anyone.

17/11/2025: Hi, we went to this place with friends and we were very happy with the team's organization and their kindness, especially Vittorio who served us!

17/11/2025: excellent and comfortable... and also economical 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

03/09/2025: In a few words: super mega ultra fantastic and wonderful🫶

31/08/2025: I've been going there for pizza for years and they've never disappointed me. Excellent ingredients, wood-fired oven, and excellent HB beer! I recommend it!!!

11/11/2025: Excellent management, very good value for money. Quick, even for display. Recommended.

12/10/2025: I highly recommend trying the boneless guinea fowl.

16/11/2025: Excellent dinner, super service, very good dishes, perhaps I would have liked the appetizers to be a little more generous. Overall, a great place. We had a very good house red wine, Merlot, which is excellent in the area. Highly recommended.

15/11/2025: Excellent cuisine, fast, professional, and attentive service. The waiters are very kind and pay close attention to the customer's needs. There were four of us, and we all ordered a starter, main course, dessert, and coffee. The price was fair for the quality.

03/12/2025: We tried the fried food night, and it was some of the best fried food we've ever had. Light and not greasy, very tasty, and plentiful. We'll be back soon to try the classic menu!

01/12/2025: Excellent food, fresh fish, cod in five varieties, well-prepared, and generous portions. The atmosphere is a bit dated, the service is attentive and courteous, but the waiters would be more professional and identifiable if they wore uniforms—perhaps informal, but uniform. Prices are average.

25/11/2025: The appetizers were good (I sampled 5 entrees), the first course (risotto with gorgonzola, pear, shrimp, and caviar) had too many ingredients and the vortex was overwhelming, and the dessert (pineapple sorbet) was forgettable—it was just frozen pineapple juice. VERY POOR service: in addition to the endless wait for the courses (appetizers, first course, and dessert), we were seated in a room with 5 tables for a total of 21 people, a room that could have accommodated perhaps 15 people at most (to be optimistic). My seat was literally next to the table next to whose diners I had my back turned, and to whom I apologized on the way out for my definitely impolite posture (not my fault). Furthermore, I could hear everything they were saying. The service staff was also having trouble, literally handing people plates without even putting them down because they were in a tight spot. Do you want to talk about safety? Are we sure this place is legal and suitable for all the people it can accommodate? I was invited; I hope no one invites me to this restaurant again!!!

19/11/2025: Beautiful place, you feel like you're lost in a Parisian alleyway rather than in Pontevico. I went here for lunch and had the business lunch menu. Both the food and the ingredients were top-notch. The decor is very unique; I really liked the place with its eclectic style. The lunch price is very affordable, especially considering the high quality of the food.
