Il Desco

Housed in a fifteenth-century palazzo, the dining room showcases hand-painted exposed ceiling beams paired with exquisite taste alongside Murano glass lamps and chandeliers, complemented by contemporary artwork. Guests sink into the signature leather armchairs to savor an outstanding meal in what may well be one of Verona’s most refined drawing rooms. Opened in 1982 by patriarch Elia, the restaurant is now in the capable hands of his talented son, Matteo Rizzo, who presents a series of tasting menus alongside a focused à la carte selection offering three to five courses. An exceptional wine list is expertly guided by the knowledgeable sommelier.
