This was the most amazing meal we ate in three weeks in Italy -- and we ate loads of great food…read more L'Evangelista is a vey upscale restaurant on a quiet street a block off the main pedestrian thoroughfare. While it follows the form of apertivo, primi, segundi, dolci, this is not traditional Italian cuisine but what I've seen termed as "Italian contemporary cuisine." That means world class, innovative food. And we loved it. Simone Ferrigno, the manager, greeted us when we arrived and seated us at an elegantly laid out table. We ordered wine and our food, and the show began with beautiful dish after beautiful dish. And fabulous wines. We chatted with the German couple at the next table who had ordered the vegan tasting menu and they were in heaven. Alas I cannot for the life of me find the receipt with the names of the dishes we ordered. If I find it, I'll update my review. I'll just say this, exquisite food, world-class service in a beautiful ambience. After we had paid our bill (thank goodness the dollar is up relative to the Euro) and we started walking away, Simone ran after us to ask how our experience was and to thank us for our patronage. Note: A reservation is essential at L'Evangelista. I just noticed that Yelp has two Euro symbols to indicate the price is moderate. I'd actually give it four Euro symbols. L'Evangelista is not for you if you're on a tight a budget.

The moment we stepped into the restaurant, we started sweating because I swear it was 90+ degrees. The restaurant was cozy with a lit candle at each table.

Service was fine, food was hot and yummy (but not out of this world), almost everything was decently priced compared to other tourist spots on the main roads, and we promptly GTFO of the restaurant in 45 minutes because of the heat.

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.]

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.

Just what I was expecting in Italy!…read more Liked the space. The kitchen was literally right up front when you walked in. We were lucky to get a seat on a Wednesday night in early October around 8:15. After us, it was all reservations and no walk-ins. They had an English menu and fully bilingual staff, which made everything easier. Very gluten-free friendly, to the point of bringing of GF roll without asking. It was nice and crusty. Explored the wines of the region; loved the Santa Sofia, Valpolicella Ripasso. Nice, smooth, with a good blend of fruit and acid. Started with the steak tartare; split between two plates, with one including the glutenous cracker - appreciated that. Also appreciated that the seasonings for the tartar (pesto, mustard) were on the side and could add as wanted. Pesto was a great topping - never thought of that. Next was the pumpkin risotto. Somewhat surprisingly, it was not cooked as long as we would typically do it back in the states. It was just shy of crunchy - it would stick to your teeth. The pumpkin cream sauce was nice, but a little bland. Could have used sage, salt and pepper at a minimum, and maybe some fennel. The mains included beef cheek, which for us was essentially a pot roast type of dish. The meat was rich and succulent and fell apart at the touch. It came with celeriac foam and celeriac fried strips. The strips were a really interesting textural complement, but the foam, not so much. The other was pork shank, that was cut into three large pieces with a crispy, sweet fried skin, with tender pork underneath, that melted in your mouth. It came with sauteed shredded cabbage. The beef cheeks came with very hot, potato cubes/small wedges. They were well cooked but bland - needed at minimum salt and pepper. The pork came with a side of vegetables - mushrooms, zucchini, carrots - that was in a rich thyme and butter sauce. The aqua frizzante, was also very tasty.
