The history of the Osteria

The Osteria Al Duca is in the very heart of the city of Verona, just a few steps away from the beatiful Arche Scaligere.

The restaurant occupies the ground and first floor of a house with battlements built in the thirteenth century. The house where Romeo, the one who along with Juliet takes part in the most famous love story in the world, is said to have lived and where he was also said to have been born.
The space which is now used to dine was initially used as a stall for horses, even if it has now been centuries since the rooms were changed into an inn and a resting place for travelers, where you could enjoy tasty dishes of tripe or pastissada, accompanied by polenta and local wines.
A tradition which lived on in years that makes the place the oldest osteria in town.

A warm and welcoming place decorated in rustic style with exposed beams. Along with the happy position a high level of cuisine is combined with a wine cellar that offers the best of wine production Verona, at very low prices.
