The story
Ferri in Ghent centers its pasta focused kitchen around daily market finds and house made ingredients. The five course tasting path runs €72 and highlights white asparagus paired with chamomile mousseline or rich agnolotti stuffed with house ricotta and wild garlic. Guests ordering individually can choose baked aubergine with smoked potato and caponata, or simply request allergen adjustments ahead of time. This seasonal Italian cooking maintains a steady pace that earns a two radish recognition from the We're Smart Green Guide for 2026.
The Ottogracht location keeps most tables outdoors when the weather allows, framing the street with simple wooden chairs and low lighting. A compact dining room sits just behind the glass doors, creating a quiet backdrop for weekday dinners and weekend reservations. Staff adjust the floor plan quickly for groups while maintaining an unhurried service style. The layout encourages conversation without crowding, which suits both solo diners seeking a quick bite and couples booking a full evening meal.
Every tasting menu offers optional wine flights that cost €29 for three glasses or €48 for five selected bottles. The kitchen curates these pourings to match the acidity of white sauces and the richness of braised vegetables. Diners finish the evening with magnolia ice cream folded with tart rhubarber, toasted crumble, and light meringue shards. An additional €7 upgrade swaps the sweet plate for an artisan cheese selection served with fruit chutney and fresh bread.
