Circolo mazzini In Bologna

Very spacious rooms. Excellent first courses, typical of Bolognese cuisine. Good value for money.

What struck me most was the ambiance: it used to be a warehouse and is now a club-like venue, with billiards, board games, and sofas for chatting or reading (their selection of books is also interesting). The dining room is perhaps the "coldest" space, despite the rough-heavy tables and wooden beamed ceilings. I tried their cotoletta Bolognese Petroniana, ranked third in the best cotoletta rankings, and found it very balanced despite being decidedly "heavy," as tradition dictates. I was disappointed when we asked for a couple of crescentine to try and they told us they could only serve them with the complete platter, which was bizarre; I've never had a situation where I couldn't have one without the accompanying accompaniment.

Excellent lunch of crescentine and cold cuts, friendly service and a family atmosphere!

I celebrated my birthday at this venue with a group of 33, and the experience was excellent in every way. The management was extremely professional and helpful from the very first contact, demonstrating great flexibility in organizing the menu and managing the reservation. The quality of the food left all the guests thrilled: the crescentine and tigelle were excellent, but the real highlight was the citrus braised beef, divinely cooked and incredibly tender. The casserole-style first courses were also very popular, allowing everyone to eat abundantly. Special praise goes to the waiters: despite the large group, the service was impeccable, fast, and always very friendly. It's rare to find such coordination and customer service. All the guests were completely satisfied with the evening. I highly recommend this venue for events and group dinners. We'll definitely be back!

I didn't really enjoy it; it was very noisy and the service was very slow. It was probably because the food wasn't up to par with the number of guests, because the waiters serving tables do their best to keep the wait short. The prices were perhaps a little high for the dishes they served.

Excellent, welcoming and very functional place

Great service and food, everything I tried on the menu was great from start to finish. Loved the tagliatelle with perfect sauce as well as a fun spin on tiramisu called "tiramiju". Overall great experience of traditional Bolognese cuisine.

Welcoming place and friendly staff. The children's play area with inflatables is no longer there, which is a real shame. The food is mediocre and the prices are too high for the quality served.

There were seven of us, we were served quickly, and the menu is quite varied. Unfortunately, however, the quality of the food is absolutely not in line with the prices. The waiters are kind and helpful. The room is very large, and even the billiards room is spacious and has several games.

This trattoria inside the Circolo Mazzini serves delicious, classic Emilian home cooking in generous portions. Try the Crescentine, which are among the best I've ever eaten, as well as the lasagna, tortellini, and the Bolognese cutlet.
