20/05/2026: I had dinner last night with a group of friends at this osteria in Montiano, and we were all thoroughly satisfied. The interior is welcoming and quaint, and we sat on a wonderful, bright veranda overlooking the square. Despite the place being packed, the staff were very courteous, friendly, and incredibly quick, making sure there was no waiting between courses.
We decided to try everything and sample several different dishes to experience more. For appetizers, we had cured meats from their own butcher shop, the tartare with caramelized onion, and the carpaccio with fresh artichokes and Sogliano fossa cheese... dishes of truly excellent quality and bold flavor. Next, we shared the main courses, and you could see they know how to handle the ingredients: both the lamb chops and the fillet alla saba were cooked to perfection, and I've rarely encountered such tender meat. For sides, we had roast potatoes and sautéed country herbs, which paired perfectly.
To accompany the entire dinner, we chose a bottle of Sangiovese Appassimento from the Zavalloni winery, a local red, full-bodied and with good structure. The portions are decidedly honest, the products are fresh and local, and the final bill was completely fair for the quality and quantity of what we ate (€60 per person). It's a shame it's a bit far for someone from Rimini, but it's definitely worth it.
23/04/2026: Osteria Lucchi is a local landmark for those who want to enjoy high-quality meat and Romagna cuisine prepared as it should be. The family welcomes you with a smile and a warm welcome. They offer a selection of carefully selected local wines. The terrace overlooking the Montiano square is worth stopping by for lunch or dinner, at least twice a year, to enjoy and recharge your soul. Excellent!
