I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Verona

18/03/2026: My food was good, the sauce was tasty, the breaded meat was also very good, only one of the dishes was too salty...

31/01/2026: Carbonara with cream and parsley, tagliatelle with mushrooms and cream:::: the only positive note was the waiter Massimo...the best

21/05/2026: We've been going to San Martino regularly for over 10 years. The food and atmosphere were always very good. This time, however, we were disappointed. Even attractive dishes and slate plates couldn't compensate. The main course—grilled squid, about ten pieces the size of walnuts, accompanied by various green, white, and red sauces and a garnish of lamb's lettuce—was meager. €20 for that is outrageous. It was only suitable as an appetizer. A slightly more elaborate salad for €12 was the final straw. The service listened to our dissatisfaction briefly and patiently, without any complaints. As walk-ins, we were waved through... but there will be plenty of customers in the coming days. Fortunately, Bardolino has numerous good restaurant alternatives.

14/05/2026: We were served quickly and had a good table; our order was taken promptly. The appetizers were okay. The vitello tonnato was too dry. The tagliatelle with seafood was good, as was the grilled sea bass. The potatoes were lukewarm, the grilled vegetables cold. We complained and immediately received a new portion, again cold. The third plate was only lukewarm and also only half full. We had only taken a small sample from each of the previous plates. The dessert, tiramisu, bore no resemblance to the picture on the menu, but it was okay. What also bothered me was that a €5 cover charge was added to a bill of over €100 for two people. Very disappointing.

13/11/2025: Excellent pizzeria We've been coming here for 20 years Consistently excellent food

14/10/2025: We wanted to have dinner there yesterday around 6:10 p.m. The restaurant was just opening. Unfortunately, a not-so-motivated employee told us that we couldn't get in without a reservation. The reason for this wasn't clear, so we went somewhere else to eat. About an hour and a half later, we walked past again, and there were only a few seats occupied. Apparently, they don't feel the need to serve guests without reservations. What a shame! (Unfortunately, you can only post this information if you give a star)

19/05/2026: We were completely disappointed and absolutely cannot understand the many positive reviews. For the "Fish Platter with King Prawns," I was asked which side dish I would like. Naturally, one assumes that a side dish offered is included. Among the options were fried potatoes – however, we only realized on the bill that these were suddenly charged at an additional €6. This hadn't been mentioned at all beforehand. If a side dish isn't included in the price, this should be clearly communicated. We find this misleading. Even more disappointing: The dish is called "Fish Platter with King Prawns." However, I was served only prawns – no fish. If a dish is described as a fish platter, one expects fish on the plate. Otherwise, the dish should simply be renamed. In my opinion, this is simply setting the wrong expectations for the customer. The fried potatoes themselves unfortunately bore little resemblance to proper fried potatoes – more like small pieces of boiled potatoes, briefly fried in oil, very dry, and without any particular preparation. Overall, the value for money was an absolute disaster. In addition, some of the dishes at our table were missing ingredients that were explicitly stated to be included. When we pointed this out, they initially tried to explain that these ingredients were supposedly already there. Only later were they reluctantly provided. Instead of responding in a customer-oriented manner, we got the impression that our comments were seen as a nuisance. Things got particularly unpleasant afterward: Once the situation was resolved, staff members talked about us behind our backs and gossiped about us—so loudly that it could be heard across several tables. This kind of behavior is completely unprofessional and disrespectful to paying customers. As the evening progressed, the staff became noticeably less friendly. This impression was even reinforced the next day when we happened to walk past the restaurant: One of the waiters pointed at us and was clearly talking about us with a colleague. After the previous day's experiences, this left a very negative impression. We also noticed that almost all the tables around us received a bread basket—except for ours. This might seem like a minor issue on its own, but unfortunately, combined with the rest of the experience, it fits the overall picture. Overall, a very disappointing visit – not just because of the food, but especially because of the way guests were treated. We definitely won't be back.

18/05/2026: I also cannot understand the positive reviews here. The pizza wasn't as ordered; it was missing ingredients listed on the menu. The waiter was very unfriendly and initially claimed everything was fine. Only after pointing it out twice was the pizza finally finished with the missing toppings. The waiters were very loud about it, so the other guests could hear it too. Absolutely not recommended – very unprofessional, especially if you're a family of six and want to eat there. Even two days later, the waiters were making fun of us when we walked by. There are much better ways to spend your money in Bardolino for good food. So, definitely not recommended.

19/07/2026: Good food, affordable prices, excellent service and a wonderful atmosphere

14/07/2026: Delicious Italian food in a beautiful setting

30/04/2026: The price-performance ratio is excellent!

29/04/2026: Chosen at random among all the lakeside restaurants... everything was superb! Very good pizza, perfectly cooked fish! Service? One of the most professional and friendly ever! The complimentary limoncello was appreciated!

23/04/2026: Loved the location. Really enjoyed the aperitivo and food. Great atmosphere. Not going back for the service. The waiter was very rude and didn’t care about us at all. Table next to us were not happy about his behaviour as well so we got talking to them complaining about the poor service from the guy but how lovely it was looking at the sunset by the lake.

12/04/2026: Staff avoided clients, when approached they got upset and in the result they served wrong product with higher price. Always check recepits with what they serve you.

02/06/2026: We had the asparagus and the Caprese salad. Both were inedible. The asparagus was still woody, and the Caprese salad consisted of one tomato and one mozzarella ball with crispbread. I would NOT eat at this restaurant. Save your money and the experience.

01/06/2026: We ate pesto pasta...it was delicious...there are tables outside, it's like a courtyard atmosphere.

02/05/2026: Hotel Ristorante Giardinetto After searching for several restaurants and finding them all full, we were actually on our way to a restaurant where we had eaten the previous day when we saw the Hotel Ristorante Giardinetto and decided to give it a try. We received a warm welcome and excellent service throughout our stay. My spaghetti was delicious, and the panna cotta was also very tasty. However, my husband's fritto misto wasn't particularly impressive, and the ice cream had a rather artificial taste. The espresso, on the other hand, was excellent! Unfortunately, the bathroom wasn't clean: there was paper on the floor and no paper towels, which somewhat detracted from the experience.

02/05/2026: A great experience, away from the hustle and bustle, superb service, excellent sea bass cooked in a salt crust and a magnificent view.

11/07/2026: They brought me a different dessert than I asked for! Chaotic atmosphere, average-to-low quality, and unreasonably expensive!

04/07/2026: I'm forced to give only 3 stars, and it's not because of the food, because that deserves 4. However, everything else leaves much to be desired, especially the service! The staff are always rushing, we waited in line to be taken to the table, they didn't even say good evening, they just asked 'how many are there?' And they hurried past the table, indicating where it is without looking back... one waitress came to bring the placemats and didn't even look at me, she just put them down any old way and continued with her work, I find that impolite. Customer service staff, whatever their role, must always keep one thing in mind: the customers who frequent the place pay their salaries, so the minimum is to be friendly and provide good service. The restaurant's terrace is pleasant, but only if it's not windy, and unlike other restaurants in the area, this one has nothing to protect it from the wind, so we see placemats flying across the terrace, which makes the experience unpleasant. It is also expected that a restaurant located in a campsite will have staff who speak at least a basic level of English. In my country, in tourist areas and where people serve tables, this is a minimum requirement! In short: the service urgently needs to be improved!
