Enotavola Pino

After reading some reviews, I was excited to try this restaurant and it did not let down. We had the raw fish antipasti. The fish and prawns were fresh and the oysters were delicious. The first course with squid ink pasta was the best pasta o have had in a long time. I could not compliment this dish anymore. We also tried the turbot, but unfortunately for us, the fish was dry and the flavour pairings did not agree with our palette. Despite this, I would definitely go back if I’m ever in Padua. The service staff were friendly and attentive which made the evening even better :)

An intriguing seafood-centric restaurant in Padua with a well-curated wine selection. The flavors struck a nice balance—creative yet comfortably familiar. There are contemporary variations of conventional foods such as mayonnaise made out of pythoplankton. Every dish was fresh and made to order, showcasing a clear attention to quality. I particularly enjoyed the red shrimps (presumably harvested from the Adriatic) and the scampi, both served unshelled and as part of a mixed seafood platter. Interestingly, the breads didn’t seem freshly baked, which stood out slightly against the otherwise high standards. The wine house spirit is evident in the details too—like the walls, thoughtfully lined with wine corks, adding character and charm to the space. While the restaurant is recommended in the Michelin Guide, it hasn’t been awarded a star. Prices are not cheap and on par with starred restaurants. Still, I’d happily return. Finally, make sure you have a reservation due to its popularity.

I ordered the 4-course tasting menu and every bite was delicious! My highlight was scallop - tender, creative and fresh. I was surprised how fast was the service considering rather busy evening. They also have a good selection of wines by the glass.

Thoughtful, original, well presented dishes with a great relaxed ambiance. Great value for this type of cuisine.

Stumble upon this restaurant while making a pitstop in Padua. The restaurant has been awarded or rather feature in Michelin guide for many years. The wait staff is kind. The food is also great. 1. Crudo seafood of the day. The seafood is fresh and super sweet. Drizzled those with extra virgin olive oil and a pitch of sale, very simple but showcasing how good the seafood is very well. 2. Mixed battered seafood, again great seafood, very crispy. What surprise me is they also serve fish, I don’t see that often. This comes with horseradish mayo which is perfect. Though, I’d love to see a lemon wedge (to add a bit more acid). 3. Mussel and rosemary, very simple and straightforward. 4. Tiramisu, very good. It’s almost like a soft browny with a hint of coffee than tiramisu 5. Mango something, i dont remember exact but there’s mango, coconut. Overall, very refreshing and great to end the meal. Overall, great experience and would love to come back again to try other dishes.

Fabulous seafood restaurant hidden away in central Padova. We went on consecutive days & had the tasting menu. The staff were very accommodating & agreed to completely change the menu on the spur of the moment so we could try different dishes. All of the food was subtlety presented & delicious. Fantastic local vino by the glass. A treasured find.

This is my favorite restaurant in Padua. You have to order the spaghetti if you go, but everything on the menu is wonderful. The people who work here are so kind and knowledgeable and go out of your way to make the experience memorable.

Seafood dishes we ordered were perfectly delicious, including desserts. Highly recommend.
