The story
Ca' d'Frara calls itself a "Trattoria Moderna", a concept that perfectly captures its spirit. Here, the warmth and familiarity of a family-run trattoria meet an elegant, contemporary setting. The restaurant is the work of Elia and Barbara, who base their cooking on the most authentic specialties of Ferrara's popular culture – dishes that time has not changed.
The menu draws on the rich Emilian culinary tradition, with a focus on the gastronomic excellences of Ferrara and its surrounding territory of land and water. Seasonal ingredients of the highest quality are treated with respect, whether in classic preparations or in more inventive land-and-sea pairings. The kitchen's daily challenge is to innovate without losing sight of tradition.
Ca' d'Frara's dedication to honest, flavourful cooking at a fair price earned it a Michelin Bib Gourmand. This award highlights restaurants that deliver good quality and good value, and it fits naturally with the trattoria's philosophy: accessible, genuine cuisine served in a comfortable atmosphere.
The dining room is both refined and welcoming, making it suitable for a leisurely lunch or a relaxed dinner. With air conditioning and wheelchair access, the restaurant ensures comfort for all guests. Takeaway is also available for those who wish to enjoy Ferrarese flavours at home.
