Lively modern Italian spot near Porta Nuova with standout carbonara and solid pizzas, good value for location, but service can slow at peak times and breakfast/aperitivo experiences are mixed.
Ostinati Verona delivers solid neighborhood dining with reliable food quality—particularly strong carbonara and steaks—and good wine guidance. However, inconsistent execution across breakfast and peak service times and slower service during busy periods prevent it from reaching higher territory. Fair value and a pleasant central location make it a dependable choice for casual Italian dining, though it lacks the distinction to compete with Verona's premier establishments.
One caveat: Breakfast and aperitivo service can be very slow with inconsistent offerings
