Trattoria Le Nuvole — Restaurant in Ferrara

Worst weekend possible to visit Ferrara: cold, rain and snow, but we found shelter in this nice restaurant. The very warm owner lead us to a side table, in the small but cozy room. And the amazing tasting experience begun. The dishes were cooked with care and love - almost all the menu is based on fish, with more classic recipes and some original ideas. Service was timely and very kind. The sashimi starter was really an anthology of flavours, of course if you like raw fish. Very interesting the fish carbonara, even if I preferred the linguine with clams. Only the dessert has been sort of a delusion, it was not bad but not as good as the rest - i will try a different one the next time. Too bad it was only lunch before the city's visit and we did not chose to afford a bottle of wine, but the wine by the glass was decent.

All the reviews speak for the quality and impressiveness of this restaurant. We visited Ferrara for a wedding and came across this restaurant on google map. Menu has both a la carte and course options. We went with a la carte and ordered quite different things to try. All of them are review-worthy. I like the raw seafood platter in particular. I have never seen wasabi mouse anywhere else and think it is so well thought out! The ‘fake’ carbonara was also nice. All the dishes have creative names given to them. Staff are warm and friendly. And we were warmed by the scene of locals saying hi to one another. Gives an impression of Ferrara as a lovely small city where the community is close-knitted.

This was our best meal in Ferrara and quite possibly the best meal on the three week trip throughout Italy. The restaurant itself is so charming and with a lot of character. It was full with local people enjoying the food and convivial atmosphere. The owner and staff were amazing. They were attentive, professional and warm. Ferrara is a beautiful city, and this place makes it even more enticing to return. Each dish is creative and is on a par or better than Michelin restaurants in Paris. The wine was one of best I ever had. It was a local white. Wife pronounced the pink shrimp tortellini to be heavenly. Amuse Bouche was amazing. Reservations likely...
