Osteria in which I always come back when visiting Bologna.Top-notch mortadella and local wines. All pasta dishes are very delicious, I do recommend “Tortellini en brodo” and also the one with the parmigiana cream. Service is always polite and willing to give recommendations.

Charming place with delicious food. We came at lunchtime and it was busy, but we got a table quickly. The tagliatelle al ragù was perfect (both the pasta and the ragù), as was the wine. Recommended!

We almost never eat at the same place twice and yet we chose to eat here both of the night we stayed in Bologna because the food and the atmosphere was so spot on! Couldn’t recommend enough for a lively dinner!
