08/11/2025: A truly excellent experience! The restaurant offers a welcoming atmosphere with attention to detail. Every course was a pleasant surprise, from appetizer to dessert. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a refined and professional dining experience.

08/11/2025: My favorite restaurant! This is a regular stop for me when I'm in Rimini. Excellent food, great waiters, and wonderful service! Everything was beautiful and well-made! See you next time!

16/09/2025: The place is on the Bellaria seafront (the pedestrian area). The staff is friendly, and the food is plentiful. A first and second course easily feeds two. Everything is very good; we've tried the first, second, and appetizers several times, and everything is delicious. The prices are also more than fair considering the abundance of food. I recommend booking.

11/09/2025: A great find for a seafood lunch. The portions are generous, so I recommend choosing a dish to share.

29/09/2025: We were a couple and were truly satisfied with the delicious food and breathtaking view. The owners were very kind in reserving a private table for us.

21/09/2025: The food is good and refined, but don't have an aperitif beforehand. :) Keep it up! See you soon.

12/10/2025: The wait was really too long. We arrived at 8:15 PM, lined up outside, and only managed to get in at 9:30 PM, only starting to eat at 10:45 PM. The piadinas weren't anything spectacular, and I think some of the flavors, given the late hour, were somewhat remedied with leftover ingredients. Prices were a bit high, even though the restaurant is cute and the location is lovely.

22/09/2025: A sampling of piadinas topped with all sorts of delicacies. The ingredients are top-quality. The strength of this place is the choice to have just a few tables to offer excellent service. Congratulations. I recommend stopping by. This is our second time there, but I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area.

26/10/2025: I'm sorry, I can't give a positive review. Only the service was excellent. Otherwise, the prices were outrageous for food that was certainly good, but which still couldn't be that expensive.

23/09/2025: Really delicious pizza, we'll be back!

14/09/2025: Delicious sushi, cozy atmosphere with very pleasant background music. They have a nice menu, they welcomed us with a truly delicious entrée, we then ordered the roll menu and the azuki menu, and a mix of the "exotic" huramaki special that the guy recommended to us—a perfect choice! Excellent drinks from the menu (I had the Moscow mule), wines by the glass, and beers. Fair prices, parking nearby. I recommend it!

07/09/2025: The place had techno music playing during lunch, with families and seniors at the tables. How can they not tell that this is absolutely not music for lunch? The sushi, aside from the Philadelphia and avocado spread everywhere, is like Chinese sushi. But it's more expensive. I wasn't convinced.

11/11/2025: Beautiful place, superb food. Highly recommended!!!

10/11/2025: Sangiovesa is located in the historic center of Santarcangelo di Romagna and is definitely worth a visit. Housed in a historic building (formerly the I Condomini theater), it boasts several welcoming and characteristic rooms, all of which evoke a bygone era. The rooms are furnished in a rustic yet elegant style, and you can visit a characteristic cave. The menu is traditional, with a good selection of dishes. The wine list is extensive. In my case, we dined on a couple of appetizers, two first courses, and two desserts. For starters, an excellent platter of typical cured meats from the Saiano estate and a delicious and authentic herb cassone. For the first course, a slow-cooked and truly delicious lasagna paired with strozzapreti with farmyard ragù, also excellent. For dessert, we tried the comforting apple pie, accompanied by vanilla ice cream, and a zuppa inglese, which in our opinion was a bit subdued. It wasn't bad, but it was a little bland. Overall the dinner was very good and the bill was in line, let's say (the structure certainly has a certain value).

16/10/2025: I visited this magnificent bistro during the Rimini tourism fair. During the fair, people were full of ideas about customer-centricity, often not put into practice (or poorly put into practice). At IL LAVATOIO, I found everything they talked about during those days: hospitality and authentic cuisine, simplicity, friendliness, professionalism, and EXCELLENT FOOD QUALITY (excellent ingredients and great preparation skill). In every dish, I found the warmth of home and authentic flavors. Unfortunately, I'm from Veneto and not geographically close enough to return often (a real shame), but when I do, it will definitely be my new go-to. Well done, congratulations!

13/10/2025: Everything was really excellent!

06/10/2025: A restaurant I absolutely recommend. We ate there as a group of 9 on a Friday evening without a reservation. The food was top-notch, very good (the fried fish was excellent), and the service was excellent, polite, and fast. The price was also very reasonable.

06/10/2025: Restaurant in an excellent location facing the beach, discreet atmosphere, friendly staff, quick service, even though the place was busy, we didn't have a long wait. My partner had the seafood spaghetti and skewers, which were excellent. I had the fried calamari, crispy vegetables, and French fries, which were good. The only flaw was the salt, which was so overwhelming that I couldn't finish my meal! But overall, it's good, and worth a visit.

21/09/2025: Amazing piadinas, super fillings, and very friendly staff. You definitely have to wait a few minutes longer than other places, but it's worth it!

19/09/2025: I've been coming here for years, and it's always a guarantee. Not your average piadina.

25/09/2025: pizzas are so goodd!!! its fresh and warm all the time and its very cheap! love it😍🍕

22/09/2025: Excellent value for money. The slices are truly delicious. I recommend them.

14/10/2025: Excellent selection of wines and very good dishes, impeccable service. Highly recommended

12/09/2025: I went for lunch today with my husband. Everything was excellent, the place was beautiful and well-decorated, and the food was excellent. We had two fricos as appetizers, two excellent first courses, and two desserts. The wine, water, and coffee were excellent. €90 was more than good. I can't wait to go back. Superb service.

09/10/2025: A beautiful restaurant on stilts overlooking the sea, with a view (of course) of the Grado lagoon. The menu and wine list are varied, and the dishes are carefully selected and well-prepared. The staff is courteous and attentive. Prices are in line with the restaurant's character.

17/09/2025: A refined restaurant with a pleasant view of the lagoon. Attentive and helpful staff. Good appetizer selections, and the "Pinaccia" (a kind of seafood stew) with shellfish and mollusks is excellent. It has everything you could possibly want, dipped in an excellent sauce, served with crostini. One point less for the baked turbot, served with both potatoes and tomato, which created a somewhat watery base. Reasonably priced. Parking isn't always easy to find in the summer, especially on weekends.
