This is a beautiful Michelin Star restaurant outside of Verona. You will need a car to get here…read more After driving for about 25 minutes, my wife and I knew we were close to the restaurant. We pulled up to the back gate, not the beautiful tree-lined front driveway that awaited us on the other side. There was plenty of parking once we found the main entrance. The villa is absolutely stunning. The landscaping is tasteful, and the atmosphere exudes luxury. We ordered the "classic" tasting menu with wine pairing. The tasting included 5 courses and several amuse bouche bites. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but the tastings include some seafood, pasta, beef, and delectable desserts. The wine pairs were perfect. My wife and I left feeling very full...and very happy. This was a memorable meal at an excellent venue in the Italian countryside. The service was also fantastic as you'd expect from a Michelin Star restaurant. The servers were very friendly, attentive, and spoke English well. If I had to nitpick, they should've combed the breadcrumbs off the tablecloth on occasion. However, the few bits of bread did not detract from the wonderful experience.

It was quiet when we arrived at noon and then filled up quite a lot by the time we departed. Clearly, a restaurant for the locals. First course, a big pile of a pasta called "bigolini" which I've not seen before. It is like thick spaghetti with a rough surface. That is needed because the sauce on it was quite thick and another interesting taste - nettles. Definitely different. Second course, risotto made with a red wine reduction. Very flavorful and rich and the pasta was perfectly al dente. We'll definitely need to return to here for dinner! [Review 16980 overall - 185 in Italy - 496 of 2022.]

The restaurant is very cute (free WiFi) and homey feeling with an exposed brick interior and interesting decoration choices throughout the space. If you're so inclined there's also and outdoor patio area. Maybe we just ordered poor menu items but the food was underwhelming and not particularly standout. For our anti pasta course we went with the cured meat trio with polenta. The meats weren't particularly good and combined with the bland polenta it just wasn't a good combo. For our primi pasta course we had the bigoli in a horse (yes horse) bolognese sauce. Of our three dishes this was the best. For our main meat course with did horse cheeks braised in an Amarone wine sauce with polenta. I didn't like the polenta any better on our second dish and the cheek just didn't do it for me. I ended up leaving the bulk of the dish uneaten. All in all-maybe I just ordered poorly but I if I ever make it back to Verona this spot will be a pass for me.

After spending 12 days in Italy, I can confidently say that our meal at La Taverna di via Stella…read morewas one of my absolute favorites. A quick note on getting a reservation--we had trouble making reservations since we could not call as we did not have service. We were able to squeeze into the beginning of the lunch service after being turned away the night before due to a full house, but I would recommend making in-person reservations a day or two ahead to make sure you get the chance to eat here. This restaurant is the perfect little Italian restaurant with an inviting and simultaneously impressive atmosphere. Our waiter was friendly and spoke great English, providing wine and food recommendations. Since I was not able to narrow down the options to just a single dish, my friend and I shared the donkey pasta and the Amarone risotto. Both dishes were absolutely incredible. Anybody visiting Verona must try to the risotto since Amarone is the big wine from the region--though it was quite rich, it was the best risotto I have ever had. I was really excited to try donkey for the first time and the pasta did not disappoint, it was cooked perfectly and the flavors were incredibly tasty. All of the prices were very fair; in fact, they were actually on the cheaper side of what we encountered in Italy. I cannot recommend La Taverna di via Stella enough--if you find yourself in Verona, you must give this restaurant a try!!
