“ Great experience. Tortelli di Zucca was very good. Flexible, dog friendly and staff very nice. Could not recommend more. ”
“ Very nice Italian restaurant with great dishes. The service was outstanding. The dishes were excellent and well presented, even if ordered at closing time. We arrived 10 minutes before closing and we were still served and not rushed out as last clients. There is a cover fee for each person of €3 which was a surprise to us, but well deserved. I recommend this place when in Mantova. If you use the bathrooms here, it might not be obvious how to turn the water on for the sink; there is a paddle that you need to push with your foot :) ”
“ Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Mantova. During our month stay in Mantova, my wife and I have eaten here a few times and are always delighted. The food is delicious, the service is top notch and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. We were usually greeted by the owner, Lily, and made to feel welcome and appreciated. We enjoyed many of the entrees but I particularly liked the bigoli fatti in casa con le sarde mediterranee and my wife raved about the tortelli di zucca fatti in casa al burro e salvia. I highly recommend dining at Ristorante Tiratappi when you are in Mantova. It is also a good idea to make reservations. ”
“ After decades of eating all around Italy, the last four days of eating in Mantua have revealed to me the essential distinctions of Mantuan food with the tastes of other Italian provinces. By chance, a few steps off the main thoroughfare street of Via Broletto along Via Leon D'oro, we discovered our first fish restaurant, not many within the city centre. After eaten in the first restaurant, it is with the aid of Google Map we located this second seafood restaurant Tiratappi, a short distance further along the same Via Leon D'oro. It turn out, this place serves relatively better honest food and much friendlier and warmer service. I congratulated myself for this discovery of this restaurant. I got to experience the uniqueness of known warm and friendly Italian hospitality in small homely restaurant, the warmth of family support service, friendly, casual yet adequately satisfying albeit not commercially overly refined but with equitable pricing. Cooking is indeed innovatively unique and concorted with fresh and ingenuous ingredients. A certain hidden gem. ”
“ We had lunch here, the food is really good and the atmosphere is great. Definitely recommend! ”
“ We were searching for a good restaurant for lunch in Mantova, and we found the perfect place. It is the best restaurant we have ever visited. The atmosphere is delightful, featuring a personal blend of Sicilian and Mantovan styles. Chef Orazio and the staff treat us as if we are truly special. The service is excellent. I highly recommend it for dates and special occasions. ”
“ Lovely place in a charming piazza near the main church. Friendly, helpful service. Marvelous food. We ate only seafood dishes: grilled calamari & spaghetti with sardines. ”
“ The atmosphere was incredibly romantic at night, set in a quiet piazza. We ordered Tortelli di zucca fatti in casa con burro e salvia, Spaghetti allo scoglio (catch of the day), and Luccio di lago in salsa mantovana con polenta grigliata. The Tortelli di zucca was sweet and comforting, with a portion so generous that I almost couldn’t finish it, even though it was absolutely delicious. Coming from Taiwan, a country surrounded by sea and well known for our fresh seafood, we could truly taste the freshness here and we absolutely loved it! ”
