Wow. What a surprise! Probably the best we had on our trip. Forget about all the chichi of fancy and expensive restaurants and dive in into a cozy food paradise garden where the great team around the chefs decide for you. You come and you’ll get one unbranded bottle of red wine that the chef chose to be the best for the menu. And then the team just doesn’t stop bringing delicious food. Four delicious primi piati (!!!) one super delicious main course. And you are always asked if it was enough. If not, they’ll serve you even more. Actually I didn’t know what it will cost and I was surprised. I thought they made a mistake. It was the best and most affordable dinner ever. And in the end they just place a bottle of grappa on your table. It’s a lovely atmosphere of trust. And I spend at least twice as much in Verona city center. Highly recommended secret. Reservation is obligated. Thanks a lot !!! I will come again.
