Ristorantino Quel Fantastico Giovedì

We came here just a few minutes after the opening and there were no people here. They told us they only had one table on the terrace without reservation - we were suspicious as there was noone there but we played along. In less than 20 minutes, there wasn't a free table anywhere and once we tasted the food it was clear why. Not a single dish left anything to be desired and the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was excellent. I highly recommend this place. I attached some pictures of food we had the pleasure of trying. I hope you enjoy it as much and have as much fun as we did eating here!

The staff is really nice and attentive. The plates are in one way simple yet a tasteful combination of high quality ingredients which are not an obvious choice on an average menu.

It was very good. The waiter guy was so nice, answering all questions and speaks English very well. Food amazing! They even gave us small appetizers and at the end a set of small cake cutes for degustazione. Everything amazing, but they could hang more aesthetic paintings on the walk🤭

Oh.. the staff were nice and very helpful inspite of too many guest that day. The food and wine is perfect. Everything is perfect in that place.

Our experience was truly outstanding. The service and the staff were genuinely warm and welcoming. The first three dishes we tried from the menu were each unique in flavor and absolutely top-notch. The wine pairings suggested for each course were spot on and elevated the whole experience. This is a restaurant that everyone passing through should definitely take the time to experience.

Off the tourist route five star. Food was sublime and service fantastic with an English speaking waiter. If you like top notch Italian food beautifully presented walk 5 minutes from the centre and you'll be rewarded.

Eating here was truly an amazing experience. Staff was extremely friendly and professional from the moment we step in. Food was just wonderful, we were having hard time picking up the dish, because they all looked so good :) 100% recommend when visiting Ferrara.

I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. From the moment you walk in, it'll be 5-star service, with really excellent food to accompany. The menu is rich and creative, with twists on typical local and Italian dishes. We started with zucca-stuffed calamaro, which came on a cream made of chickpea - some of the best calamari I've ever had. I had spaghettoni alle vongole for my first course, a creamy, peppery, take on the original. My boyfriend had the gnocchetti and the veal cheek, which he said was excellent. For my second I had seafood crudités, which again were delicious and really high quality. To accompany our meal we chose a bottle of local Bosco Eliceo wine, dubbed a 'lively white' on the extensive wine menu. And for dessert, some small cannoli filled with mascarpone. They provided amouse bouche both at the beginning and end of the meal, alongside excellent recommendations for amari (which they didn't charge for). Everything together came to 108 euros (for two sizeable appetizers, two firsts and one second, one dessert, a bottle of wine, two bottles of water, two coffees and two amari). It's expensive for Ferrara, but not for the quality of food and service we received. A really enjoyable time which I will repeat whenever in Ferrara, a really special place. The only thing I would say is to check in advance if you don't speak Italian, as I'm not sure there are English menus. Oh and make sure to book ahead as well. Five star food and service, thank you for an excellent afternoon once again!
