La Cucina Del Maestro — Restaurant in Parma

The food is good, but it is a pity that the service is horrible. The "menù degustazione" has an entree, a main course, a second course and a dissert and is not worth the €45 you pay. The portions are veeery small and beverage is not included. We asked for bread and they brought us some with dessert! With dessert not with the second dish when we asked for it!! We had to wait for 40 minutes to start the dinner. When we complaint about how small the portions were the waiter said "that this is what a menú degustazione is that maybe I had not been told what a menù degustazione is" as if I had not tried one before!! The complete unpoliteness of the waiter was incredible! He has glasses and a beard. The other waiter was polite and elegant. We had been there twice before and I do not recommend the place if that waiter is...

La Cucina del Maestro is a true celebration of Parma’s culinary tradition. The menu is filled with local classics made using exceptional ingredients — from prosciutto di Parma to beautifully aged Parmigiano Reggiano.

The absolute highlight of the meal was the anolini in capon broth. Rich, hearty, and deeply flavorful, it felt like the essence of Parma in a bowl — comforting and expertly prepared. We also tried the tortelli verdi with spalla di San Secondo, which were delicious, with a perfect balance of richness and freshness.

The ambiance is warm and rustic, and while the service was a little slow, it was still friendly and attentive. Overall, a fantastic experience and a place I’d gladly return to for another bowl of those...

Do you want to be completely ignored as a customer? That’s the place for you. Super arrogant and super careless waiter (dressed all in black, with black frames for glasses) will make it “unforgettable” for you. Once at the table, we got water which we had all in a minute (35 degrees). No one asked if we want more water or any other drink. The “all black” was too lazy to fix the shaky table and was clearly annoyed by the request. Waiting for the menu card (only in Italian), waiting for someone to collect the order… ages. No fresh pepper, vinegar straight from the retail shop - see a photo. Ridiculously small portions (mine was never served), catastrophic service - and all of that in the center of Parma!...
