I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiananella città Padova della Padova

02/05/2026: A small pastry shop in a quiet, green square, with outdoor seating. Delicious brioche. I'll try something else. But in the meantime, I'm a winner!

29/03/2026: For Palm Sunday, I ordered Chantilly cream with cream, chocolate cream puffs, and St. Joseph's zeppole. The Chantilly cream was bland and flavorless (a shame, because the cream puff dough was good). The chocolate cream puffs were decent, but nothing special. The zeppole were good, but average: you can find better. The price (€35 for 15 pieces) is decidedly high for the quality and size of the products. The staff was friendly, but the overall experience doesn't justify a higher rating.

03/05/2026: Tourist trap. Mediocre quality sandwiches and poor service. We asked the waiter for sandwiches without peppers, and he brought us 5 out of 6 sandwiches with peppers... Poor quality tourist trap

02/05/2026: Among the best bars in the centre of Padua, excellent value for money, specialising in traditional Paduan hot sandwiches.

18/05/2026: You wait 20 minutes for 3 coffees and 2 croissants, and after 20 minutes they tell you they only have one. Just as everything arrives, you eat it, and you go to pay, they ask you for the table number, WHICH IS MISSING. And to top it all off, the lady even allows herself to make a little joke about how easy it was to find the table number (which wasn't there). I feel sorry for the waiters, who are so kind and work here.

12/05/2026: I never write negative reviews, but I just can't stay silent here. First and foremost, the food was terrible. Two out of three dishes were oversalted. It's unbelievable how Italians can't make pasta carbonara. Instead of bacon, there were tiny pieces of bacon, half of which were just charred coals. There was practically no sauce; it was very dry and overly salty, and very little. Secondly, the service was subpar. We waited a long time for menus, then the waiter complained about one dish, although he brought it quickly. Thirdly, the atmosphere was terrible. It would have been better if we had lunch on the steps by the monument; at least there the pigeons wouldn't sit on your head and eat your food. Pigeons, birds that carry infections and diseases, were sitting right on the tables, eating the customers' food. When the wind started blowing, everyone was asked to take their plates (🙈) and go inside. There was no room to sit inside, the place reeked of sweaty socks (sorry, that's true, no exaggeration), and the entire restaurant was filled with crates, like a construction site. Only two couples left while we were there; one didn't get served, and the other didn't get their food. Fourth: they mixed up the dishes we ordered on the bill, and they'd already taken a tip for each person, which we hadn't intended to leave because it was terrible from start to finish. We regret this experience and the €50 we spent. I've never had such a bad meal in my life, even though I'm usually not a picky eater. 😑
