Parma area lacks a proper steakhouse and this one for sure does not qualify either.

Service fantastic and talked the group through some of the dishes which was appreciated. It helped being with a local who knew the restaurant and the menu well. Ravioli style dish for starter cooked to perfection. The thin sliced beef was full of flavour and melt in the mouth. A custard style dish followed with some biscuits but the highlight for me was the freshly made ice cream. So soft and smooth. It is the best I have ever had. Good selection of wine for which we had a very drinkable Valpolicella Ripasso which complimented the beef perfectly. Overall a most enjoyable meal in old cottage style surroundings which were very cosy.

First of all the waiter did not explain the size of each meat piece, although we asked, so we over ordered (approx 2,8 kilos of meat for 4 people is too much). The roasted potatoes were undercooked. There is a nice wine list. Overall, nothing special and not worth going back. Still searching for a proper grill restaurant around Parma, but certainly this is not the one.

Delicious and delicate food that lived up to expectation. 15 mins drive from Centre but worth it. Plenty of parking and setting is also very pleasant. read more Delicious and delicate food that lived up to expectation. 15 mins drive from Centre but worth it.

My wife and i had no intention on having a meal here but while having 2 hours of spare time waiting on a Ham and Cheese tour this restaurant was right near us. The occassion was made special by our server Chiara who took such great care of us the best service we received during our two week Italy vacation. We had the pumpkin Tortelli and the Roasted stuffed pork and it was to absoutley to die for. If in Parma this is the place you want to eat.
