Ristorante Lepre

The current Ristorante Lepre comes from the transformation of the historic Osteria Lepre, whose license to operate dates back to the distant 1870. The name was chosen by the owner of the time because, on Saturdays, market days, it was customary to prepare dishes such as tripe, cod, and game, particularly the hare, which were greatly appreciated by the merchants who came to Valeggio.

Today, after seven generations, it is still the Murari Family that carries on the tradition of the establishment, passing down family recipes and flavors over time.

Among the house specialties stand out the meat tortellini with melted butter and the paparele with hare sauce. The tortellini are made with a filling of different meats, slowly cooked in a braise with vegetables, according to an ancient recipe that the great-grandparents passed down to the following generations.

The restaurant is an integral part of the historic Palazzo Municipale of Valeggio sul Mincio and welcomes its guests in a warm, family-friendly environment, distributed across two adjacent rooms. During the beautiful season, it is also possible to have lunch or dinner in the charming inner garden.
