I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Padova

14/04/2026: I have to say, as a Venetian-style liver lover, the dish was truly delicious! The staff was excellent, fast, and precise! Overall, all the dishes were delicious! Well done!

12/04/2026: Arquà Petrarca is a picturesque village in the Euganean Hills (Padua) featuring the medieval home of the poet Petrarch and his sarcophagus in the church square. The small Osteria al Guerriero is within sight of the church and also offers some outdoor seating. It primarily serves very tasty Venetian dishes, including the delicious bigoli pasta (very thick spaghetti).

19/04/2026: Impeccable kindness and professionalism! Not to mention the quality. If you want to be pampered, go to Silvia.

19/04/2026: A rare experience. I asked for a structured but mature wine, and four suggestions came back. A moving 2001 Slovenian Merlot. The appetizer was goose liver and smoked goose salami, cappellacci with melted cheese, and cod Vicenza-style. Perfect. Update: 1/12/2023, second tasting, with beef heart and Crozes-Hermitage Syrah. Always excellent.

14/01/2026: Great atmosphere, quality dishes and ingredients, and generous portions. I left feeling truly satisfied.

13/10/2025: Very nice and well-kept restaurant. Next to the fortress. Amazing duck bigoli.

26/04/2026: I remembered it being better....but tonight we weren't at all satisfied: the seafood pizza had almost all cuttlefish and the dough was rubbery, not to mention the capricciosa, on top of having to get the cereal dough as an alternative to the Napoli dough, it wasn't cooked enough and still had the mozzarella in pieces....and here I am.....I will never go there again!

23/04/2026: Excellent pizzas with a wide variety of toppings. Despite the restaurant being packed, the wait was minimal, and best of all, they brought the children's orders right away. The waiters were very helpful and attentive. Highly recommended.

14/02/2026: Very quiet and welcoming bar. Very friendly staff.

23/01/2026: Friendly, helpful, and welcoming staff Simple and tasty sandwiches. Delicious toasted vegetarian sandwich, as recommended! Modern restaurant in the city center near the San Gaetano cultural center.

03/01/2026: Excellent dinner, we were advised on the food/wine pairings in an excellent manner, recommended

15/12/2025: Overall, we were quite satisfied. I recommend the cooked salami appetizer; the wild boar ragù first course was too salty; the pumpkin pie was good; and there's a wide selection of wines. The staff was friendly and helpful.

23/11/2025: If you're hungry, this isn't the place to be. The quality is unquestionable, but the price and quantity don't justify it.

22/11/2025: Very nice, unusual location. Super staff... Parking nearby. I love the thin-crust pizza and it's fantastic—light dough, quality ingredients, and original but never overdone combinations. Super friendly staff and fast service even when it's busy. Fair prices for what they offer. Cheerful and positive atmosphere, very professional young people. Definitely worth returning to.

22/12/2025: Excellent lunch at the right price: recommended!

15/11/2025: Fantastic restaurant. I spent a wonderful, relaxing evening with excellent food and service. Of course, I'll be back.

18/04/2026: I've been coming to La Lanterna for many years. The service is always quick and impeccable. Good pizzas, and the green pepper fillet is excellent. But times change. Last night we ordered a seafood salad with Ascoli olives, buttered spinach, and grilled salmon. Tens of minutes pass, and only the seafood and spinach salad arrives. I ask for the Ascoli olives, but still nothing. I ask again, and they finally arrive, saying they'd lost my order. Meanwhile, I'm getting tired of waiting and losing my appetite for the salmon. I ask, and they tell me they'd lost my order again, this time for the salmon, which I ask them to cancel. I ask for the bill, and what does the waitress do? She brings the bill to my girlfriend instead of me! The service is terrible and makes me lose the desire to eat out. A restaurant in a beautiful location, but it's completely ruined. I recommend trying other restaurants around there; there are plenty.

16/04/2026: I've been getting takeout pizza every week from this restaurant for a couple of years now. In my opinion, it's one of the best in the city center. I've also had the opportunity to eat at the outdoor tables, and the view of the square is beautiful. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and polite. You can tell the owners care deeply about their restaurant, and this is reflected in the staff, who are always impeccable. Recommended for lunch or dinner in the center of Padua!

05/04/2026: I didn't know it, it was our first time there and I have to say that all seven of us had a wonderful meal. Even the pasta with sauce my 5-year-old son had was good. What can I say? The appetizers were delicious and the meats were truly top-notch, delicious. They even had a very tender Florentine steak. Very kind and friendly staff. The table service was excellent, everything was clean, even the bathrooms. Recommended for beef lovers; they are specialists and have all kinds of cuts.

22/03/2026: I went for lunch over the weekend. The place looked very nice and the staff were helpful. Unfortunately, we waited too long—50 minutes for a cold cuts platter, without even having the chance to order meat. It's a shame because the meat is very good, but two and a half hours to serve a table for two with an appetizer and a meat main course seems excessive.

04/04/2026: Nice and welcoming restaurant. Professional and friendly staff. We ordered the pizza, which was very good and made with quality ingredients. Fair price. Central location. Highly recommended.

27/03/2026: It's a very welcoming place, where you eat very well, but the service is a little slow, but at the same time this slowness means that when the pizza arrives nice and hot, you fall in love with it, so the wait is nothing

19/01/2026: Good Hotel with Very good service and excellent location

15/01/2026: I walked past this hotel daily as I was staying with a friend in Padova. This hotel always had the nicest staff and the patrons always dressed very well. The location is great for walking around near restaurants and they will hail a taxi when you want go further. They even went out of their way to hold a lost item of mine at the desk so I could retrieve it. I know when I return, I will stay here!

20/04/2026: Excellent pizzas! A wide selection of all kinds of dishes to please everyone, even the littlest ones.

20/04/2026: The place is too chaotic and the service is confusing. They don't pay attention to the dishes, they focus on quantity rather than quality. Seeing the dishes left on the floor wasn't very nice. I don't think we'll be back.

09/04/2026: Nice room for birthdays and events, good pizza

19/11/2025: Beautiful place, delicious pizzas, service could be improved. There were a lot of us, so it's understandable that there was some confusion. But when someone's pizza arrives and you specifically mention that they still need a drink, maybe they should bring it right away instead of finishing delivering the pizzas, which they'll finish without even a drink. Mishaps happen, and communication between the dining room and the bar probably needs improvement. In any case, I definitely recommend it.

21/03/2026: I've eaten here a few times on my lunch break. They're very quick to set you up and serve you. The prices are great, and every time I come here I always go overboard and order a tiramisu because everything is always delicious. 😋

28/12/2025: Polish brioche filled with white chocolate, jam, and special Nutella! Congratulations!
