IL MARINAIO In Bologna

I went with friends on Saturday evening. A slightly retro atmosphere, the room was full. We chose different dishes, but our order arrived quickly. The Marinaio appetizer was delicious, varied, and unpretentious. The first courses were also delicious (the only complaint was that the risotto was too oily). The grilled food was delicious. Nicola, who served us, was quick and kind, and Riccardo, who was also very helpful and lively. Overall, a lovely evening and good food.

We went to this place this summer because we wanted to eat good fish, they recommended it to us, we had a great time, 80s style service which I love, fair price, very fresh fish. The only thing is the chairs are uncomfortable but I highly recommend it especially the mixed starter for two, very fair price, quality food and then I give everyone a gift, fantastic sea bass in salt

Everything is exceptional but Nicola is number one

Excellent seafood restaurant! It's hard to find one like this in Bologna...excellent quality. Varied and tasty appetizers, generous and flavorful first courses, and a varied and excellent grilled fish. Typical Neapolitan desserts made in-house that vary daily. Definitely worth a try!

We had a wonderful meal! I went with a friend who loves eating there. I actually had a wonderful meal. The food is high-quality, the only problem is the location. My friend is disabled and can't use the restrooms because they're downstairs, and it's impossible to equip them and make them accessible because the place is so old. Parking is a huge problem; if you don't find one out front (there are five spots), you have to park across the bridge and then reach it via the pedestrian bridge, which is really awkward with a wheelchair. Other than that, the staff is old-fashioned, they're friendly, and they understand what you need even before you ask. So, go there for a good meal, but don't expect too much from the place; it's a must-visit for good fish in Bologna. The fried onions and the fried julienned zucchini are excellent and unique. The grilled shellfish are also excellent! Why only 4 stars? Because the experience with a disabled person is demanding.

We ate very well, the sailor's appetizer was very good and special, the homemade seafood parcels were good and the fried food was exceptional, the waiters were very good and attentive, highly recommended.

If you want quality seafood, you have to go to Il Marinaio! The stylish atmosphere is like being in the cabin of an old-fashioned galleon. The fish is fresh, high-quality, and the service is excellent. The owner, Luigi, is always ready to recommend the best dishes to try. When you come here, you have to put yourself completely in his hands—a real guarantee.

😎👌Normal prices..and the fish is excellent

Eating well at this restaurant is always a sure thing: excellent food, a never-ending selection of hot and cold appetizers, and seasonal, fresh ingredients. These are complemented by classic dishes that are always on the menu: fried fish, spaghetti with clams, pastiera, etc. Prices are in line with the quality. The owner, who is always attentive and kind, offers a warm welcome.

A small restaurant near the San Ruffillo bridge: excellent fish, well-seasoned pasta dishes, and attentive, friendly, and welcoming service. See you soon!
