Classy food and service plus a guided tour of the 1st century BC ruins in the cellar. I was made to feel extremely welcome as a solo female diner - something i was particularly grateful for having been turned away from a higher rated restaurant for what I suspect was a lack of a dining companion and therefore double the...

Located in a courtyard just off a busy tourist walkway in Piazza Erbe, this small restaurant serves up great atmosphere, good wine and a unique dining experience. The service was somewhat slow, but attentive. The food was gourmet and wine was great. We recommend this restaurant if you want a relaxing, unhurried lunch away from the crowds.

We saw Maffei in the Michelin guide and walked in the courtyard, directly of piazza erbe. The courtyard is a tranquil place though. After studying the menu, we decided to eat a la carte. For antipasti we had the baked foie gras , afterwards pasta with rabbit and then a stew with polenta. Desert was a chocolate cake. All good... More

I went with a local italian friend to Maffei whille I was in Verona for Vinitaly. It is beautiful located in the center of the town, very charming like the the town with great food and excellent wine selection. Definately good memory to have in this romantic city.

We were intrigued by this restaurant due to its location over the Roman ruins, so we came back for dinner. The dining room is beautiful with nice artwork and a great atmosphere. Our food was good and service excellent. It is a bit pricey, but we thought the atmosphere made it worth it.

Nice place, friendly service. It is the place to go if you like to pay too much for your food. The prices are about 30% higher than what would be reasonable. Located at Verona's center it is however nearly an obliged visit. As my comment has to be at least 100 signs long and I do not know what else... More

We spotted this place on our first night whilst meandering through Piazza delle Erbe and were intrigued by the ornate archway entrance. Decided to give it a shot half way through our stay in Verona, but would easily recommend it as the place to have your final night's meal. We found the service to be excellent, very attentive and the... More

On a day trip to Verona, we happened passed Maffei and saw a sign advertising a 16 Euro, all inclusive lunch. Figured what the heck..the menu sounded good...and went for it. Boy were we glad we did. You enter a courtyard to a hotel and a very unassuming entrance to the restaurant. But when you go in you are greeted... More

A lucky tip from our taxi driver led us to the Rostorante Maffei. This is a high quality restaurant and it will be apparent from the moment you sit at your table. Many restaurants promise much with elegance but then don't deliver with the food. This is not one of those restaurants. Beginning with stuffed calamari appetizers and progressing through... More

There were 3 in our party. We ate beef cheeks, a tourenado of beef, and a rack of lamb. A compote of braised vegetables accompanied the tourenado of beef. All 3 meals were excellent. Located in the courtyard of a palazzo next to the Piazza Erbe, the atmosphere was outstanding, too. Prices were relatively high.
