Food: This place was recommended by a local doctor, and looked like it was packed with local Veronese. The food however was a little too heavy and the donkey meat tartare done three ways, which the waiter recommended was disappointing.

Service: Friendly staff make you feel at ease right away.

Worth trying: Their daily pastas, gnocchi with local cheese and home made pistachio gelato.

Ambience: Very rustic, warm and welcoming. You certainly feel like you’re in the neighbourhood bar while you’re here.

Average price per person: 50 Euro
