Il Gigante Buono In Forlì

We left the motorway to have lunch and chose this bar/restaurant because it was very close. It is within an industrial area. First day of opening after the holidays... could this have been it? We had read that the place was air conditioned but in reality the air conditioners were off, it was very hot. Only two people were present: the cook and a girl who had to serve both the tables and the counter. We waited a while even though there were only three tables occupied and already served. Menu of the day €17 including cover charge, first course, second course and... let's imagine that the quarter of red wine and half a liter of water had to be paid separately. Only one first course and one second course were available (basically no choice), or they offered us the à la carte menu. I asked if we could just eat the first one and we were told yes. We thought we were only paying for a first course but in reality we paid €14 each (only 3 euros less than the price for a first course and a second course of meat). If they had warned us, we probably would have decided either to leave the restaurant or to also request a second one (perhaps with the takeaway of what we couldn't finish). Luckily it was a passing lunch stop because we won't be back for sure. It remains to compliment the chef for the rigatoni with basil, cherry tomatoes and fresh buffalo mozzarella, they were good. The girl who had to serve the customers at the table and at the counter was also very nice and kind, we understand that it wasn't easy. Too bad you didn't warn us about the prices. Without a choice on the menu and eating only a first course, we didn't think we'd spend more than €10 each. We recommend more clarity on prices

Excellent air-conditioned environment, excellent dishes both first and second courses, I recommend it to anyone who is in the area! Very kind!

The new management is excellent Delicious typical dishes of the Romagna tradition. Excellent value for money. Punctual and fast service. I highly recommend it, we had a great time.
