We went to this restaurant because it was so highly recommended on VT (thanks to sandysmith). We liked it so much we went twice in our week in Verona. The food was really good, especially the pumpkin ravioli, the atmosphere was great and the service efficient and not intrusive.
On our first visit, the end of our meal was punctuated by one of Verona’s famous thunderstorms – when it rains it really rains. The staff quickly cleared the tables and moved everyone inside, where we had our coffee. The atmosphere inside was not so good, but it was 11 pm by then, and there were not so many people left.
On our second visit, we couldn’t get a table at first, so reserved one for an hour later, and went out into Piazza Erbe just round the corner for a drink. On our return we had a very good meal, only two courses this time, but I can’t find the bill, only a note of what we had. Tagliatell al Salmone followed by Tagliata di manzo con rucola for me, and Gnocchi di patate al radicchio rosso e mascarpone followed by Ossobuco in umido con polenta for Liz. (No, I’m not going to translate it for you, but it was as good as it sounds !)
I have mislaid the bill from our second meal, but the first came to 55 euros for three courses for two people (excluding drinks).
All the food we had was delicious, and it is hard to pick a favourite. I can still remember the pumpkin ravioli (Tortelli Zucca) from our first meal, and the Tagliata di manzo con rucola from the second meal.

We picked this restaurant out of the list I compiled in my Travel Guide from here on VT. Il Calice was recommended by croisbeauty who has the top-ranked page for Verona.
The restaurant is a few hundred yards from Piazza Bra, just a short walk down the road to Via Pallone, and on the left. There is a large courtyard behind the restaurant with plenty of tables, shaded by a canopy. We were there mid-week, after that night's opera performance had started, and the restaurant was quiet, although had obviously been busy earlier.
The food was good and the portions generous - particularly Liz's Insalate Casa (see the photo) - listed as tomato and mozarella salad in the menu. I had gnocchi to start, but I didn't make a note of the main courses - the bill just says taglista and aristo.
We thought the prices were very reasonable - our three course meal for two people came to 42 euros, plus drinks on top, making 61 euros in total.

 Ristorante/Pizzeria "Calice" by croisbeauty
I like this restaurant because it is not expensive, the food is very good and, most of all, knowing the personal I feel very comfortable here. Besides the local Veronese dishes, I suggest you seafood, in particularly "orata alla grilla".
Non touristy, ala carte menu, cost something less then 20 euros, drink and coffee including. Leave a Comment Theme: ItalianPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Via PallonePhone: 800.4892

I've passed by dozen of times but have never entered into this restaurant which is situated in Piazza San Zeno, right opposite to the basilica. During my last visit to Verona, November 2006, I had late dinner here and it was very pleasant surprise. The ambient is rustical but very nice while the service was just great.
It was over 10:30 PM and I couldn't have much of choices. The weiter suggest me grilled steak, which was prepared in "camino", right hte one you see on the pictures bellow. The steak was delicious, very tasty and grilled in the way I like it. I had red wine, half a bottle, from Valpolicella and it was of good quality. I finished ny dinner as usual with espresso and have paid it 20 euros.
In case you're visiting basilica San Zeno during lunch or dinner time, nearby Al Calmiere is excellent choice for your meal. Leave a Comment

This was our favourite restaurant in Verona. A lovely informal, friendly atmosphere, not too large a place so you did not feel part of a large touristic crowd. The cusine was varied and tasty and typical Veronese dishes can be enjoyed here such as polenta.
The first pasta dish here I enjoyed was a tasty ravioli with pumpkin - something quite different I'm sure my vegetarian friends would enjoy ;-) There is an extensive wine list too.
Their speciality however is "Bollito Misto"....more of that in the next few tips!

'bollito misto' is a veronese speciality and athough the waiter expressed concern that this was a winter dish not really suitable for a hot summer's evening I had to try it having read so much about it. Its probably their equivalent of a Sunday lunch being a full platter of boiled meats. Definitely not for the vegetarian the meats include - a hunk of ham, a slab of beef, followed by a whole veal tongue, a rich fatty cotechino sausage, and a wobbly roll of testina (pig’s head)! (main pic)
As if the meats and a mixed salad where not enough they come served with various sauces - coarse rock salt, mostarda di frutta (mustard-glazed fruits), fiery horse radish, lush green salsa verde.(pic 2) One more sauce is included with the Bollito Misto - a large bowl of what looks like runny oatmeal. This is “peara” the classic Veronese sauce of bone marrow, beef stock, Parmigiano and breadcrumbs, flavoured with peppercorns. Well I needed another table for all this!!!

 Drago d'Oro by croisbeauty
The customers had enough of guessing weather the food is fresh or not (very often it wasn't), do the waitress speak other languages, in particularly Italian, except the chinese, etc, etc.
As far as I am concerned, closing chinese restaurants in Italy is a good news. I am not rasist, not at all, but have never liked chinese food, especially not in Italy.
Do not search for this restaurant when in Verona, it is closed and the decoration is removed now. Leave a Comment Theme: Chinese/Dim SumPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensive

 lesso con peara' by agalta
NOT FOR THE VEGETARIAN...
this place is famous and rightfully so... it's not in the old city so you won't find tourists (v. unusual) and I don't really know how you could get there without a car. ask a taxi how much it would be to go ...
WHAT YOU EAT: minimal menu: home made pasta (I love the tagliatelle in brodo with fresh meat broth but if you order normal tagliatelle they bring you the all the sauces 'on the side' yummm) and then you'll see a tray (il carrello) of meats: one layer boiled and one roasted... you choose if you want a lean (MAGRO) or the hard-core fat (GRASSO) meats and what animal/part (tongue is another local specialty)... then you get lots of vegetables and sauces (2 local specialties PEARà, a bread/pepper sauce for the boiled meats, and SALSA VERDE made with parsley....)OH i'M GETTING TOO HUNGRY I CAN'T WRITE ANYMORE!
