The partner's word
Il Desco is a Michelin one-star restaurant situated in the heart of Verona, Italy, with a culinary heritage spanning more than four decades since its founding in 1981 by Elia Rizzo. The restaurant elevates Italian gastronomy by maintaining a balance between tradition and contemporary relevance. Awarded its Michelin star in 1985, Il Desco retains this distinction through a refined approach to high cuisine grounded in territorial roots.
Currently led by Elia Rizzo’s son, Matteo, who integrates international influences with family tradition, the kitchen focuses on simplicity and authenticity. Dishes highlight the essence of no more than three ingredients, allowing pure flavors to emerge through minimalistic preparation and precise craftsmanship. The staff, guided by the Rizzo family, emphasizes sincere culinary experiences and customer satisfaction.
Il Desco offers exclusive menus that blend local land and sea flavors, complemented by Champagne and carefully selected wine pairings. The restaurant also publishes “Generations,” a book that chronicles its culinary journey and explores the connection between food, art, passion, and memory.
