Osteria San Bernardino — Restaurant in Verona

During our visit to Verona for the Opera Festival, we stumbled upon Osteria San Bernardino, and it turned out to be a delightful find. This charming small restaurant, primarily frequented by Italian locals with a few curious foreigners, offered an authentic taste of the region.

We indulged in the local fare, including rabbit, liver, and a risotto, all of which were simply delicious. Each dish was expertly prepared, showcasing the rich flavors of the area.

The owner and host was exceptionally helpful and passionate about his menu, sharing insights that added to our dining experience. His pride in the culinary offerings was evident, and it contributed to an overall fantastic evening.
