Who we are

For over two centuries, Ristorante Isola di Caprera has been a landmark of Padua’s culinary tradition. Founded in 1800 in the heart of the city, it has preserved the charm of its long history, welcoming generations of guests in an elegant and refined atmosphere.

The menu is designed to delight both nostalgic palates, with true traditional Venetian dishes, and those seeking something different, offering delicacies that strike a balance between meat and fish, always respecting seasonality and the freshness of ingredients. The wine list is extensive, featuring glasses from local vineyards and renowned Italian wineries, along with a selection of some of the most celebrated French sparkling wines.

Located just a few steps from Piazza della Frutta and the majestic Palazzo della Ragione, the restaurant is surrounded by the rich history and culture of the city.

For this reason, in addition to our regular dining service, over the years we have specialized in organizing events for tourist groups, becoming a point of reference for those who wish to discover authentic traditional Venetian cuisine in a uniquely historic setting. We welcome visitors from all over the world, offering food and wine experiences that tell the story and flavors of the region, creating tailored experiences for those who want to immerse themselves in the most authentic soul of Padua.

Another highlight of our business is our catering service, born from the experience gained in the restaurant and, over time, becoming a synonym for quality and attention to detail. Whether it’s weddings, corporate events, or private receptions, our team brings the excellence of Isola di Caprera’s cuisine to exclusive venues, ensuring impeccable service and a personalized menu.
