**AVERAGE VERONESE CUISINE**…read more Restaurant was fairly empty and we were the youngest people there. We were walk-ins. AMBIANCE ========= Old-school Italian trattoria with romantic views of the water. We were seated against the window. FOOD ===== **GNOCCHI - (9,80 euros) Homemade gnocchi with mushroom, black truffle cream, and crispy bacon sounded better than it tasted. The pasta was too firm and the flavors, especially the truffle, did not stick. RATING: 3/5 My date ordered the mussels and they were generous with his portion of 11,50 euros. SERVICE ======== The service was weird. Like touristy-fake. Not exactly genuine, but professional. PRO TIPS ======== They specialize in meat or fish dishes and their kitchen is open until midnight. On Monday evenings, you can listen to live music. OVERALL ======== With the exception of the view, I would rather dine elsewhere for better food. Good place for special occasions.

Nice place to sit outside very close to the river and enjoy a lovely view. We basically landed here…read morebecause all other restaurants were closed at this time. The food, however, I was really disappointed with. I ordered the gigli integrale al pesto di rucola for 9€. Price is OK given the location but the pasta was drowning in olive oil and pesto, way too much for my gusto. Service was friendly though, understanding some basic English. Still, if you like fresh pasta, take your money some place else. There are plenty of other and better restaurants in this neighborhood.

Y'all. We do NOT live like this. I *wish* we could live like this. We knew when planning our return…read moretrip to Verona that we'd want to find "a special spot" to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary. We did the research, of course, and kept coming back to Casa Perbellini. To be specific: we kept coming back to the Chef's Table experience at Casa Perbellini. Was it expensive? Yes. Was it extravagant? Yes. Was it a little over the top? Indeed. But, was it worth it? Undoubtedly, yes. A hundred times, yes. If we could go back tomorrow, we'd book in a heartbeat. We did do a bit of reconnaissance the morning of our reservation, making sure we knew where we were going so that we could easily navigate there in the cold and dark, with me clickety-clacking over the cobblestone streets in my heels. And when we arrived, a few minutes before our reservation time, we were greeted at the door with a smart-looking group of staff and the Chef himself. Walking in, you're welcomed into what looks like a library, where the staff confirms your name and reservation time, takes your coats and scarves, and invites you to get comfortable while you wait. They had a full chef's table experience that night, and we were one of two English-speaking couples in attendance. And here I want to pause to shout out the incredible Stefano, who was tasked not only with choosing the wines for every meal throughout the night, but with taking care of us and the other American couple, ensuring we were able to understand everything the Chef was saying, and what was presented to us to consume. (Also, extra points to Stefano for keeping our wine glasses full - something I had not anticipated haha - and for humoring my sudden need to understand everything about every glass they put in front of us. The craftsmanship that went into the glasses, guys! The delicate but strong stems, the beautiful bowls...I couldn't get enough!) Chef's table attendees are treated to a property walk-through before heading to the special dining room. You hear about the history, see incredibly old structures and learn more about the Chef, the food and the ties to Italy. Our 10-course meal kicked off pretty quickly after we were seated, and each diner was immediately taken care of by the dining room staff, including Stefano, who made trip after trip around the table, topping off glasses and showcasing wines. I'll post pictures of each item we were served, including our special anniversary desserts, complete with the descriptions, courtesy of the souvenir menu - signed by chef himself - handed to us as we were heading out for the night. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Even if you're not doing the Chef's Table experience, the food - which is the same as what was served to the main dining room, with a few special exceptions for the Table diners - is delicious, beautiful and indulgent.

I would love to highlight Stefano for his hospitality. He was a joy! I don't want to spoil the experience, but I will share that the chef's table booking begins with a small tour of the property that is just amazing. The menu for chef's table includes three extra dishes, as well as a wine pairing. The wines and food are exquisite! Each bite was delicious and texturally interesting. The wines were complimentary and even included one blind tasting! The meal ended with an amazing array of desserts. They also sent out a torte for my husband's birthday. When we left, Stefano gave us a small book of the best restaurants in Italy. This kind gesture was so moving! I'm so grateful for our meal here and we will never forget it! Grazie mille Stefano, Chef, e squadra!

I would venture to say this is the best place for seafood in Vicenza. Their regular menu is very…read moresmall (meats and some previously frozen fish) because all of those he fresh seafood changes daily based on what is in season and available. The regular menu is available in English and while the daily menu isn't the staff is more than willing the translate every item on the menu for you, answer questions and offer recommendations. I really enjoyed my fresh grilled scallops and razor clams followed by a crab pasta. The fresh fish carpaccio are also very fresh and flavorful. I'm sure you couldn't go wrong with anything on the menu. The prices are really reasonable for the quality you're getting and of course dinner is followed by complimentary limoncello (or other after dinner drinks). Also, don't forget to try to daily changing house made desserts - they're outstanding.

The small outdoor patio still had its charm. Service was extreme friendly. We ordered the Polenta e Baccalà which was superb and their daily special of wild boar in an Amarone sauce over polenta. This was a smooth creamy polenta. While I prefer polenta a bit more corse/rustic this was still excellent - especially the baccala. Ordered a reasonably priced glass of Amarone. Both the wine and beer list is extensive and updated often. Nice list of cocktails as well. Hard not to be enthusiastic about Sottoriva. Would have gladly given it 5 stars but they take the authentic Veronese cuisine too far also serving horse stew. Can't give a place serving horse 5 stars, sorry.

Our food tour stopped in here where we enjoyed some delicious primi platti (first course) meals…read more The interior is a beautiful restaurant with lots of light and exposed stone walls. 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.

The possibilities are just endless really. Only thing is that this one place in particular would benefit greatly form a major interiors' renovation. It looks old and quite frankly not that pretty, it looks more like a warehouse or a mini market than a food place. So yeah, it should definitely be renovated. Also, someone should clean the tables every now and then because they do tend to get dirty during then say and they usually stay that way until the place closes. Same thing goes with the floor.
