16/09/2025: I continue my search for new places like osterias. We're in the hills of Romagna. This osteria has nothing to do with the name of the famous chef. It's simply an acronym for the owners. I'd describe this place as rustic, ancient, isolated, yet innovative. You reach the place from a quiet road. They have their own parking lot and then a curious staircase (high heels are not recommended for ladies) that ascends through greenery, surrounded by an enchanting atmosphere with historical and curious objects. Upon arrival, you'll notice outdoor dining areas (not very inviting or tidy at first glance). You climb a staircase past the kitchen and reach the first floor. On the first floor, there's a terrace with a few tables (request this when booking) and three smaller rooms, including the bar, each with a maximum of 5-8 tables. The tables are properly spaced, allowing for conversation, and the privacy they offer indicates that they're not intended to crowd together customers like other places, but rather to make you feel comfortable and at home while enjoying their cuisine. A friendly, easygoing gentleman welcomes you, partly familiar with the preparation of the dishes, and quick service (though there were only six tables occupied). The waiter is equipped with electronic technology to communicate with the kitchen. The dishes ascend via a small restaurant-style freight elevator. The dishes and portions are well-presented (considering it's an osteria), with different preparations and seasonal ingredients. The menu changes every three or four months, while maintaining some specialties as a foundation. The house wine is also good, bottled but not from the Romagna area. Prices are fair and reasonable. The bathroom is convenient, but has two steps. Electronic payments accepted.
04/09/2025: We gladly returned to this trattoria and dined on the outdoor terrace on a pleasant evening.
The staff's friendliness and humor made the dishes even more enjoyable.
We loved the attention to detail in this simple, family-friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended.
