John was such a patient and kind server and helped our very picky family have our best meal in Italy! Loved listening to the violinists from the courtyard while being tucked away from the crowds. Also they use high quality olive oil! read more

Oh my, where do I start with this place! The only good thing from this night was the amarone risotto. Made with local amorone wine, The risotto was cooked to the proper level and it had good flavor. That was literally the only good thing about this meal. We ordered the house red which was warm and terrible. For the love of God, keep your red wines at the proper chilled temperature. The lady ordered the lasagna. It was probably the worst dish we had in Italy. It came out lukewarm, the pasta was mushy as it had been overcooked, and it just lacked proper flavor. The worst part is after we paid the bill and we're walking back to the hotel, the lasagna struck again and the lady had to double time it back to the hotel and the toilet. Terrible food poisoning. This is off the list. read more

As the name boasts, Blue Ribbon is a setting you dream of visiting Verona. One of the many eateries in historic Verona. Classic decor inside but too dark to enjoy for lunch when the sun is out. Opt outside in the alleyway for umbrella shade and cool breeze. The Galacian Octopus ~ for just a half cut leg slice, eh. Lobster Linguini Special ~ pasta al dente perfect, giant claws cooked so tender. Felicetti Black Squid Ink Spaghetti with Salmon Eggs ~ delicious. Service ~uniformed & proper for an upscale appearance. read more

Europe 2023 - Verona With all the choices to eat in Verona it is hard to accept going to a touristy place with under 4, so we ventured off the main plaza and found Nasteo Azzurro. From where we were sitting we couldn't see the ancient arena. But the food and service were great. I had the spaghetti with lobster. I just wish there was more lobster. The pizza had a nicely cooked crust and was a mix of artichoke hearts, prosciutto and mushrooms. Our bottle of wine was a Merlot and good. The best part was the Tiramisu and the service. read more

I must admit I did this to myself. I talked about this restaurant for weeks prior to our arrival. After researching and reading this was the one...wrong. When we arrived I told the host that we had reservations and he didn't even want to know our name... just sit where you would like. I was going to order three entree's and each what I wanted my douse another one. I asked about the ricotta gnocchi with truffles and he said the ricotta were three large(about the size of a baseball) so I decided against that. So our dishes consisted of Grilled Langostinod, Suckling Pig w/roasted potatoes and a Ragu Lasagna. The langostinos were grilled so long they were totally mush. The suckling Pig arrived and it was something neither of us had ever seen. The pig was precooked, then tightly packed and wrapped in a large piece of fat and heated to a luck was. One knows it was not freshly cooked when you talked it apart and it has that porky taste. All of the salt in the world could not help with little dish...2d mistake. The lasagna however was very good, some of the best. It kind of melted in your mouth. When I tried to explain the mushy shrimp the waiter forgot that he knew English which he had spoke to all tables. Oh, well. When finished he quickly took our plates away with no questions. I would say that I fell into the "trap". Lesson learned: read the reviews from the locals...and go where the locals go. Wish I could recommend but can't. If you do go order the lasagna. Service was prompt. Outside seating was a delight. The tables are set up in an alley way with an abundance of umbrellas so the sun or rain will not deter. read more

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel and located right next to it. The hotel made reservations for us prior to our trip since we had 6 people and many restaurants in Italy are small. This place has a good size outside seating area and also a lot of indoor seating too. The location is right near the Arena. I usually find restaurants near main tourist sites to be mediocre and overpriced. It's happily surprised this wasn't the case. The girls got pizzas which they loved. I tasted the crust and it was quite good. We got the lobster pasta special of the day, linguine with clams, and the tray of grilled seafood. All the dishes were wonderful with lovely flavor. I also appreciated that the seafood was tender instead of dry. The tiramisu and hot chocolate cake were good but I think the latter was a little overly done. The staff were very polite and helpful. I would absolutely come back here again. read more

This was our first visit here and we were not disappointed. We ordered the lobster pasta and the lasagna. Both were excellent. Service was very good as well. The waiter helped us pick out a wine option and it was perfect. The only thing I can be critical of would be, it felt like you were sitting in an alley when the restaurants on the Main plaza have a better ambiance. read more

Great value in the heart of Verona. Only steps away from the Arena, but it's quiet setting in a charming alley gives it a quiet ambience. The food was very well prepared and the prices easy on your wallet. The service is excellent, perhaps the best we experienced in our trip. The manager took the trouble to check on us not once but twice! Highly recommended! read more

Nastro Azzurro - Excellent!!!!! A must when in Verona. - Seafood Near Me - Verona, VR

Came here on my last night in Verona, wish I had discovered this place earlier! I was planning to go to Torcolo just around the corner, but they weren't open until 7, and Nastro looked pretty popular so I decided to pop in. Given its proximity to the Arena, I was expecting overpriced below average food. How happy I was to be proven wrong! I got the truffle ricotta gnocchi and tiramisu to finish it off. The food is incredible, made with great attention and care. Presentation was beautiful - as an example, the gnocchi was served with a delicate autumn leaf decoration that the waiter kindly pointed out was made from cheese. Service was great and both dishes were absolutely amazing. I don't think you can go wrong with anything from their menu! read more

Good service. We went there for pizza but it is more of an upscale restaurant. We ordered the pizza bra and the cappricciosa, which were more watery than we are use to. There are better pizza options out there for less, like Pizzeria Dai Brai Butei. Fast casual place that you can pick from a selection of pizzas from over the counter by the size you choose and pay by the weight. read more

Besides our super sweet waiter, this place was totally average. I am truly surprised that with so many great restaurants, Nastro Azzurro would get such good reviews! The ravioli was hard and its contents were overcooked. The pizza was topped with unripe tomatoes. The mussels and clams were cold and there was no real sauce/broth to speak of. In Italy, this is unacceptable. read more

Tucked in an alley near Piazza Bra is this gem of a restaurant. We settled in and started with yet another good bottle of red wine from Valopicella which has become my favorite wine in northern Italy. We attacked plates of risotto flavored with amarone and another with spicy shrimp. Second plates consisted of extremely tender beef filet covered with a balsamic sauce that was out of this world. We had no room for dessert but we were presented with small glasses of a whipped lemon cream which was perfect for cleansing the palate. Wait staff was friendly, attentive and not pushy at all. read more

Our family was searching for a place for dinner near the Arena when we came upon this restaurant and we were greeted warmly by Sergio who seated us at an outside table per our request. We were pleased that the waiter greeting us outside was the one that became our waiter. The whole dining experience was memorable because of Sergio's attention to detail, his wit, charm, explanation of the menu, chilling of our glasses before pouring the white wine in the August heat and prosecco treat. This was one of our best meals in our 2 weeks in Italy. read more
