Risotteria Melotti Isola della Scala

Risotteria located in the center of Isola della Scala, present with other locations in Italy even in NY. We tasted the traditional rice all'isolana and a blueberry and gorgonzola risotto: both sublime, served in very generous portions, but the first of the two is a must if you are visiting the city for the first time. Average prices and extremely pleasant atmosphere. You can perceive the quality of the raw material and direct production; everything on the menu is produced with their rice and also everything is gluten free. Impeccable service, courteous, professional and helpful staff.

Risotteria Melotti is a small place in Isola della Scala where rice is obviously king. Any product is gluten-free, including bread. We ordered fried gnocchi with cured meats, arancini, risotto all'isolana and cacio e pepe. What can I say, the risotto was probably the best I had ever eaten and the portions are so generous. As for the other dishes, I appreciated the fried gnocchi and the tiramisu, less so the arancini which in my opinion are too far from what one expects as arancini. The prices are low considering that you leave the place with a really full stomach. The only note is the service, which is a little too cold for what is instead an "inn" context. That said, highly recommended.

The absolute best! Excellent food, friendliness and cleanliness... Details taken care of down to the smallest detail. The kingdom of rice... from appetizer to dessert! And absolutely gluten free...
