Visited this restaurant for Monday lunch, on a reservation. The door is kept locked, so we had to ring the bell. This does seem to deter passing trade. The manager speaks basic English only but enough to explain the dishes on the menu, which are...authentic Italian and extremely tasty. Service is not fast so leave plenty of time to get through the meal. Plenty of delicious bread provided to nibble on and the starter portions are generous. Very nice local wines. Well worth a visit.More

After a quick stop at the duomo in Carrara, my wife and I decided to have lunch. Because of its ratings and proximity, we decided to try Enoteca Velma. It was great! We were served by the manager who recommended the home maid tortelli with...a ragu. We decided to try the lardo on toasted bread appetizer, which is a specialty in the area. We were rewarded with an excellent lunch and warm and welcoming service. The wine selection is extensive, but we don't drink with lunch. Hopefully next time. We're sure to return on our next visit to Carrara. Tip: Be sure to have someone in your group with Italian skills. Little English was spoken during our visit.More

We had the pleasure of eating here tonight. We went for the local platter of meats to start and then two paste dishes followed by a chocolate mousse. Everything was perfect and the wine really was lovely. Our server was so friendly and offered great...information on the wines and we stayed chatting to him for quite a while. He was so welcoming and at the end of our visit gave us a gift of a lovely bottle of wine! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening :) we hope to be back soon!More
