I was one of the lucky brides to be married at this location (and held the ceremony's banquet here…read moreas well) many years ago. The restaurant has changed a little since 2000, but it's still one of the most romantic event's venues in the area. The food is excellent and the service top notch. We came back 16 years later on our anniversary dinner. The staff was super sweet and so excited to hear that we were back. The staff from 16 years ago is long gone, as they have undergone new ownership since...but they were so happy to hear our story and they made us feel so special. We ate in the downstairs back room, but they let us go upstairs after dinner, to the main ceremony space just to take a look and reminisce about our special day.

We were looking for a place in the surroundings of Vicenza to taste some baccalà and we chose La…read moreMarescialla since it is one of the members of "confraternita del baccalà" a group of restaurants dedicated to keeping alive the centuries old tradition of baccalà dishes in the region. Going to La Marescialla we have found out that its cuisine is excellent in its entirety - and of course the baccalà mantecato was fabulous. The risotto with its unusual blending of radicchio, gamberi and gorgonzola is a masterpiece of equilibrium and taste. The desserts were delicious. We had no wine - we had decided it had to be a nonalcoholic day - but the list of wines was very attractive with a lot of interesting proposals: next time!

A quaint Italian restaurant located on the top of a hill overlooking Vicenza, right next to a…read morehistoric church, Trattoria Al Cavallino is great place to taste authentic northern Italian cuisine, wine, and atmosphere. My colleague and I arrived to an empty restaurant at about 2030 (8:30pm) and was warmly invited and quickly seated. Despite our lack of any Italian, our server and proprietor were able to make great recommendations in wine and cuisine. Appetizers, main entrée were outstanding - pasta, seafood. I do not remember what I had for dinner, but do remember they were all outstanding and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was classy, the décor awesome - what you would expect from an Italian restaurant. Cost? Relatively affordable, actually cheaper than what you would expect to pay if back in the states. As we were getting ready to leave at about 2200 (10pm), more people were in the restaurant enjoying the cuisine. For a great Italian cuisine, definitely visit.

I love this place, located in a nice little village on top of a hill. Beautiful view, ancient and…read morewell kept buildings. Owner is exquisitely kind. Ambiance is warm, cozy and elegant at the same time, without overdoing it. Food is made to order so take into account a short wait. Great wine cellar (great red and white wines are produced in this North-Western part of Italy). I had polenta in a bed of melted Asiago cheese and porcini. Sublime. Nirvana reached with fresh made bigoli (homemade fresh pasta typical of Veneto region) with porcini mushrooms and duck ragout. Strongly recommended if you happen to be in this area. Prices adequate to quality. Love you little horse (Cavallino's meaning).

There are some places that just ooze Italy and this is one of them. I have been a couple of times now and one was for lunch and the other was for dinner. Neither one disappointed!

The best bruschetta in the area! Service is excellent and food is fresh and does not disappoint.read more
