We visited this restaurant in may, staying near Verona and looking for fancy place to have lunch. Checking the Guide L'Espresso (IMHO the most reliable guide for fine dining in Italy), I found this restaurant in Lonigo. All I can say is that this was really worth the drive (of 50 min.)!
The restaurant is quite modern in style, but in a warm, comfortable way. The dining room is at the first floor, equipped with large windows delivering a superb view over the countryside and hills of Veneto.
The staff, leaded by Miss Cinzia, is professional and kind, making you feel welcome from the first minute.
We choose the lunch-menu, which consisted of a pasta, secondo and a little dessert. The lunch started of with some very nice and tasty appetizers. The pasta dish (gnocchi with asparagus and spinach) was fresher than fresh and a real threat for the tast buds.
The secondo dish was a very well cooked piece of duck with some seasonal herbs and salad. Than a nice and refreshing/light dessert of fresh fruits and yoghurt foam. The lunch ended with an superb cup of espresso accompanied by homemade pastries.
This was a superb lunch at only €40! A bargain at this level of dining!
The winelist is very extensive and delivers all the goods from Italy and the rest of the world at reasonable prices. The helpful sommelier is always there to put you in the right direction when it comes to wine/food matching. We had two really good bottles at very decent prices.
This is a place to look after when you around in the Veneto region and looking for a fancy place to dine. It was really worth the drive from Verona!
Highly recommendable and worth every penny! We will definitely come back here!
