Da Silvio In Bologna

One of my favorite restaurant in the world.

Fantastic experience. Delicious food and impeccable service. Super advice from Silvio

Excellent service. I will return whenever I visit Bologna.

We came here because of the numerous good reviews, but I wasn't very enthusiastic: you have to like the fact that some antipasti are already prepared at the table (the liver spread has clearly been there for a long time) as well as open bottles of wine and water. In addition to the antipasti that were already available, fresh ones were also served without asking what you wanted. Afterwards we both had a pasta dish. We skipped the secondo so we still had room for dessert. The meringue cake was very good, I've had better Zuppa Inglese. It seems to be a business model here to make the guests so full with antipasti and primi that they tend to forego the secondo, because it was the same at the other tables and the waiter immediately offered us this option. Afterwards we had an espresso and two grappa and paid 120 euros. There was no menu or price list anywhere at the table and for me this price was clearly too high for what was on offer.

Se cercate un ristorante che unisca cucina eccellente, atmosfera calorosa e un servizio impeccabile, Da Silvio è una tappa obbligata a Bologna. I tagliolini alle zucchine sono semplicemente strepitosi, un piatto che da solo vale la visita. Ma il vero colpo di scena arriva con il carrello dei dolci, un trionfo senza fine di tentazioni irresistibili. Ogni dolce è un capolavoro, ma una menzione speciale va al mascarpone, assolutamente da Oscar. Il servizio è impeccabile: rapido, attento e di una gentilezza che oggi è sempre più rara. E come se non bastasse, il proprietario aggiunge un tocco speciale con la sua simpatia folgorante, trasformando la cena in un’esperienza ancora più piacevole. L’atmosfera è quella che tutti vorremmo trovare in un ristorante: familiare, allegra e gioiosa, perfetta per una serata tra amici all’insegna del buon cibo e del divertimento. In sintesi: Da Silvio non è solo un ristorante, è un’esperienza da vivere. Assolutamente da provare!

The staff and the owner were friendly, I didn't like finding the dishes already on the table, grilled aubergines, mortadella and liver pâté, as well as the wine already opened. Honestly, I didn't find any food cooked in a special way, the desserts delicious, the price high for what we ate

They make the rice boiled and not risotto, a terrible difference, boiled is cream, risotto is crunchy at the top Savory dishes 😢😢😢 the chef must have changed 😢 shame about the waiters, the Top

An absolutely must-do Bolognese experience!!! Very good traditional cuisine. It starts with an endless appetizer, continues with first and second courses and finally, a riot of desserts. All this with hospitality, courtesy and friendliness! Super recommended 😍
