Hostaria La Frasca In Modena

Excellent food, welcoming environment and the great friendliness of the owner completes it all

The lady is an institution! She cooks very well and is treated like a grandmother... a little eccentric and fun! 2 starters (porchetta with snow peas and asparagus pie with culatello) 4 first courses of tortelli/tortellini, delicious cutlets and amazing guinea fowl and duck! Experience to do! Good evening also the selection of wines

Fantastic place, very characteristic! The lady is very nice and very talkative! Daily menu and excellent food, highly recommended experience if you want to go a little outside the box! Really nice place!

You don't have a dinner but an experience with a capital E. Ada was very nice and the food was excellent!!!

So the review here is harsh. Let's start with the owner, Mrs. Ada is in all respects the owner of the place... in every sense. In the tavern there is only her who does everything: cooking and serving the tables. The place is very small and the atmosphere is very, very homely and informal. At the same time it is also very entertaining, based on the old customs of the past, where everyone talks and laughs together, in fact it can happen that you get to know the guests during dinner. Obviously it is Ada who decides what you want to eat, the written menus can also be considered for the beauty or decoration of the place. What is certain is that whatever she offers you she will have done it and I assure you that Ada is an excellent cook capable of best representing traditional Emilian cuisine. If this were not enough, the lady displays strong theatrical skills which make her able to entertain diners with real performances based on humor and irreverence which, at times, seem to border on rudeness but I assure you that in her heart they never are. So if you know how to take it and if you know how to adapt, laughter is guaranteed, also because it is good at involving all the guests who, due to the conformity of the place, are never more than fifteen who exaggerate, and finding themselves physically sitting close together they sometimes start talking and joking with each other. Then a lot depends on whether you find it on a good evening or not. Now, having made these necessary premises, it is useless to go if you expect a radical chic, silent and elegant place. This is not the spirit of the place, Ada does not change and will never change. Take it or leave it. What is certain is that, as mentioned above, if Ada is on the day the evening will certainly be unforgettable but, if it isn't, well it will be the same... unforgettable... the choice is yours.

Ada, what a special woman! His cuisine and his mood make the environment unique!! Every time I find myself passing through Modena, I'll stop by and say hello! Thank you, Anthony

We went to Hostaria La Frasca for lunch by chance. When we walked in we saw that this was a great place to have lunch. The manager, Ada, is a very friendly person and she is the one who prepares everything, you eat what she makes that day, there is no menu. We loved the food and Ada's friendliness. We ate ravioli and pork cheeks. At the end she offered us the coffee nearby, there is no coffee at the Hostaria. A fantastic experience, thank you Ada.

Finally a typical restaurant! Exceptional food, the owner immerses you in a Modena atmosphere with her presence, her dishes and her place. Super recommended also for the experience

Un posto incredibile. Sembra di mangiare a casa della sig.ra Ada! Il piccolo ristornate ha un arredamento ricchissimo, ma la vera sorpresa è lei. Piatti unici. Tutto fatto in casa, pane compreso. Abbiamo mangiato le caramelle (pasta ripiena con speck e rucola); l’anatra e la torta Barozzi con il gelato. Porzioni super abbondanti. Speso 30 euro a testa. All’interno del locale c’è un cartello con scritto “no caffè, no liquori” perché quelli si prendono con lei, facendo una passeggiata per andare a vedere una quercia gigantesca che si trova nei pressi del ristorante. Una accoglienza unica. Questo locale e la sig.ra Ada, in particolare, valgono il viaggio a Modena!!

Cibo squisito e proprietaria unica. Ambiente accogliente e confortevole Esperienza assolutamente da ripetere!!!!
